I moved to a new neighborhood and had to find a new barber. Fade Kings are walking distance and I…read morejust had to try them out. When I walked in, they had two customers in chairs and three barbers working. As a result, no wait. Rudy was available to take me on and did just that. Friendly, funny, and he listened to what I wanted. Through the funny banter between the three barbers, us customers, Rudy did his work, all along checking in with me on progress. The outcome was a great haircut at a reasonable price. I had a great barber before. These guys are a good match. I'll go back next month.

I like the concept of this place- old school barbershop with a trendy feel…read more My kids and I arrived around 2pm on a Friday and there was already a list forming. No appointments, walk-ins only. There were 4 barbers, chairs full, and a few people waiting. So, I put our names down and waited. I really don't know how long I waited because I was occupied with my kids. Aaron was friendly and did a nice job with my kids' hair. So, why the 3 stars and hesitation to return? About a week before actually going to the barbershop, I searched high and low for a phone number. I really wanted to find out the prices before walking in. I found a number on google and called, but never heard back. I don't mind paying for good services but I wanted to know beforehand- especially because Fade Kings only accepts cash (as per other yelp reviews). So, no phone number, no prices anywhere on yelp, facebook page, or in the barbershop. Each of my kiddos was 25, so 50 in total- cash only. I usually tip 20% but because of not knowing exactly how much the service was, I had to tip less because I didn't have enough cash on me. Accepting credit cards, having set appointments, and a price list available would easily turn this 3 star review into a 5 star review.

I am a regular customer here and always appreciate the quality of the haircuts and the excellent…read moreprices. The staff does a fantastic job with my fades and keeps me looking sharp. However, my most recent visit resulted in a very disappointing and painful issue. I developed a nasty rash and significant irritation on the back of my neck (as shown in the pictures). This reaction strongly suggests that the razors or clippers were unsanitary and not properly cleaned before being used on me. Hygiene is critical in a barber shop. While I want to continue being a customer, this is a serious lapse in sanitation that needs to be addressed immediately. I will be back, but please, please clean your tools thoroughly! I hope to continue supporting this shop once I know proper disinfection protocols are followed.

Honestly I got recommended to this spot because it was cheap and when I went everything seemed fine…read morethe people there honestly don't speak well English theirs probably the front barber that speaks English anyways I got a cut the first time asked for a tapper and got a fade so that's that, second time I went I was with the main barber in the front and he took out some clippers from the bottom drawer idk if they had something against me or what but it's been a few months and I have this rash on the back of my head that doesn't go away on top of that they all speak in their native language and laugh which made me feel uncomfortable, I don't wish this on my worst enemy but I wouldn't recommend this spot even if it was the last barbershop on earth

Jonathan the Barber and owner has great blending and fading techniques right on par with the cuts I used to get back when I was living in LA. He has great attention to detail and takes his time when you're in his chair and makes me feel right at home. Also at $15 for a great quality taper with a edge up is handout IMHO. It's a bittersweet feeling to write this review because now the secret is gonna be out lol but albeit it's a well deserved one. If you're reading this Jonathan, keep up the good work bro, you're gonna go far!

Parent tip: if you're the type of parent that is bothered by rap and cuss words, beware. They play unedited rap so beware if you're sensitive. I on the other hand, don't mind because my kid and I have an understanding about what's what. duh! We got David as our barber this time. Awesome attention to detail. Straightest line up ever, takes his time, and patient with a fidgety kid. So if you care if you're lines are straight, go to him. We watched him work on other folks and he's pretty legit and does take his time. Also, I only had to show him a photo of what we wanted once and he copied pretty close. I guess we found our Escondido barber!

Even while waiting, time flies by as you check out the motorcycles and the art in the tattoo shop next door. I really appreciate when a barber takes the time to understand exactly how you want your haircut. This requires real skill, and Lance has it. He's welcoming, professional, and also helps other barbers improve their skills, which is a huge plus. In short, the experience at Lucky The Barber is something every man should have at least once whenever they need a haircut. I'm glad I found this place and it's definitely my go-to spot now. Thank you, Lance, for the great experience. I truly wish you success in your business. I highly recommend Lucky The Barber.
