I decided to try this barbershop today after seeing all the great reviews, but unfortunately my…read moreexperience didn't match the ratings. I paid a premium price expecting a clean, professional fade, but the result was uneven and poorly blended. When I pointed out that one side didn't match the other, they tried to fix it but only touched up one side, leaving the other side still noticeably off. For a shop with such high reviews and prices to match, I expected way better attention to detail and consistency. The service wasn't rude, but the quality definitely didn't live up to the reputation. Sadly, I won't be returning. The barber who attended to me during this visit mentioned that he was the owner (photo of the fade is attached).

The woman at the host table offered me a drink (I politely declined,) and then started a conversation about the different products available on the shelves in front of me.

Anyway, a few minutes later my stylist arrived and led me downstairs where the magic happens. I showed her a few photos and explained what I was wanting and she went to work. Roughly 20 minute later - I had a new cut. The cost is competitive. I paid $40 plus tip (February 2026) and was in and out in about 40 minutes.

I strike up a great conversation with Cindy the front desk person about seeing live music, including people like Johnny Cash, Wanda Jackson, Loretta Lynn. Then I remember why I came in I was desperate to get a haircut. I had gone to at least three or four barbershops prior to finding this cutting place. Although they take walk-ins, it helps to have an appointment because they are busy. I had to wait an hour and a half so I went to the local vintage shop boomerangs right next-door, which was pretty awesome Anyway, my cutter was Felicia who did a five star job on my hair I got the cut that I wanted. I got to shave of my neck, the warm towel the shampoo and blow dry. This will now be my go to location as my cutter for 25 years in Los Angeles Unfortunately is sick and may likely need to retire.

I'm extremely disappointed with the experience my brother and I had at this barbershop…read more This was his first haircut in a while, and we gave very clear instructions before the cut began: taper the back, keep the hair long on top, and keep the area around the ears soft to help conceal existing scars. Unfortunately, those instructions were not followed. Instead of a taper, the haircut turned into a high fade that left the top resembling a mohawk and made the scar near his ear significantly more visible. About halfway through the service, the barber acknowledged that she had cut too deeply. Her response at that point was that "the scar needs sun exposure," which was surprising and concerning to hear. Particularly on darker skin, scars generally benefit from careful protection from sun exposure to help avoid further discoloration or potential keloid formation. What made the experience more frustrating was the lack of accountability afterward. Even after we explained our concerns, there was no meaningful apology--only comments that she "just didn't know." Despite the mistake and the significant deviation from the requested style, we were still charged full price. Everyone makes mistakes, but professionalism is shown in how those mistakes are handled. In this case, there was little acknowledgment of the issue and no effort to remedy the situation, particularly given the sensitivity surrounding the scars and the emotional impact of having them made more visible. Based on this experience, I would personally hesitate to recommend this shop for people with textured hair, people of color, or for those who require careful attention around scars or other sensitive areas. Greater training, experience with diverse hair types, and a willingness to listen carefully to clients would go a long way toward improving the service.

Great service, a great lady, and all the good things I read about it on Yelp confirms this was a great decision. Highly recommended.
