I met Caly over a year ago, and I honestly haven't looked elsewhere since. I see her weekly now, and every time she cuts my hair, it's such a confidence boost. She always has me leaving the shop looking fresh. One of my favorite things about Caly is that she actually gives you her opinion when you ask especially if you're thinking about trying something new. And if you can't identify a haircut by name, you can literally just describe what you're envisioning, and somehow she'll pull up a picture of exactly what you had in mind. She listens, understands what you're going for, and gives you exactly what you want. At this point, I always book my appointments in advance because I'm not letting anybody take my spot! If it's your first time coming to this barbershop and you don't know who to choose, choose Caly. She's got you. You'll leave looking fresh and feeling even better. read more

My son wanted a new look for his hair, so I searched Yelp for good barbershops in the area. True Barbershop popped up, and I'm so glad it did! I called early in the morning, and Eric answered the phone. I explained that my son was looking for a style that would suit him, and Eric told us to come on in. We booked an appointment for later that afternoon. Eric did not rush the process at all. He took the time to listen to my son, understand what he wanted, and create a cut that perfectly fit his face shape. He even taught him how to style it so he could keep the look at home. A few days later, my son forgot how to style it, and this is where Eric truly went above and beyond. Not only did he send us a YouTube video, but he also took the time to FaceTime my son personally and walk him through the styling step-by-step. I have never come across a barber (or really anyone) as kind, patient, and dedicated to their clients as Eric. He went out of his way, even after hours, to make sure my son was happy and confident with his new style. We are beyond impressed and so grateful. Highly recommend Eric and True Barbershop, you won't be disappointed! read more

If you're wondering who to go to for a fresh cut; u gotta hit up cristian. he'll actually get u right

I gave True Barbershop multiple chances because my first couple of visits were actually decent when it came to the haircut. What wasn't decent was the "Haircut & Facial" service. The description advertises a haircut followed by a facial that includes a black mask and facial scrub for a full facial cleanse. On my first few visits, I booked and paid for the facial, but it was never actually performed. I was still charged the full price. After I left a review, the shop responded and offered a refund and although I appreciated them responding, I declined the refund because, at the end of the day, I still received a haircut and I'm not the type of person who tries to get free services. Unfortunately, my most recent visit was my worst experience. I honestly don't know whether it had anything to do with my previous review, but this was by far the worst haircut I've received there. My previous haircuts here were much better and As for the "facial," save your money. It is not a facial. The barber simply rubbed a facial scrub on my face and wiped it off with a towel. That was it. There was no black mask. I also specifically asked the barber not to put any product in my hair, yet I still walked out with product in it. It felt like he was trying to make the service seem more involved, but it wasn't what I asked for. One thing I will acknowledge is that after the service, it seemed like the barber wasn't going to charge me. Regardless, I insisted on paying because I'm not looking for free services. I paid the full price and still left my usual $40 tip. I genuinely don't enjoy leaving negative reviews, especially after giving a business multiple opportunities I simply believe customers deserve to receive the services they're paying for. If you're advertising a haircut and facial that includes a black mask and a full facial cleanse, then that's what customers should receive. If that's no longer the service being offered, the description should be updated to accurately reflect what customers can expect. read more

Some real talent at this place! Nice clean establishment that makes everyone feel welcomed. Met CALY a couple years ago as a random walk in and she's now my permanent barber! I don't trust anyone else with my hair. Glad I found this spot! read more

Request Caly, you won't regret it! She definitely knows men's hair & really knows how to cater to your needs. I usually go to the barber every 2 months, but I felt like shaking 2024 up by growing-out my hair a quite a bit longer than usual. I had a business-casual event that I wanted to use as an occasion to change up my current look. The place that I normally go to hadn't been picking-up their phone & I didn't want to run the risk of walking-in only to find that there would be no availble spots. I referred to good 'ol Yelp --which brought me to True barbershop. I went with Caly because she had more compatible time slots - I'm about a 35 minute drive with traffic. You book your appointments on their Vagaro App - which is super convenient b/c you don't need to rely on anyone (receptionist) to set it up. Mind you, I could have walked-in (but again, not wanting to taking any chances on waiting if it's not necessary). That said, Caly is quite possible one of the sweetest & most-attentive barber / stylist that I have ever come across. I told her what I had in mind & she "understood the assignment" 100%. I even made a request for my preference of "scissor over comb" & she was more than happy to accommodate. She was very careful, methodic, & mindful, the whole way through. She knew exactly what she was doing & was sure to make sure that I was happy as she progressed. I will most definitely be coming back & requesting Caly specifically. Fun fact - she trained at the very place that I used to go to for the past 15 years, which more than reassured me that she's quite possible one of the best barbers that I have ever had - and I promise you, that is not an understatement. Payment can be directly with her (there's a small fee if you opt for credit card). Rest assured, the price is more than worth it. Good haircuts don't come cheap. And you get what out what you put in with a haircut - it's an investment. 5 Stars for Caly at True Barbershop (on Reseda). Tell her that Justin recommended you ;) read more

True Barbershop - Simple, classic, timeless. Big props & massive shoutout to Caly. Make sure to request her! - Barbers Near Me - Northridge, California

I've been going to Caly for over a year now, and I've never left unhappy. She's incredibly skilled barber and knows how to work with shears! She always takes the time to really consult with you about the cut you're looking for before she starts -- no rushing, no guessing what you want. If you're looking for a barber who actually listens and delivers consistently great cuts, she's the one to see. Highly recommend booking with Caly! read more

I stopped by after the gym and the atmosphere is so warm and friendly. I was grateful enough to sit in Vincent's chair. His creativity and skills with scissors is just superb. If Jalen Brunson is the king of new york then Vincent is the king of Northridge. I have been looking for hairstyles and after spending months on tiktok for inspiration, Vincent was able to do it on a random tuesday. Tito's customer service cannot go unnoticed, his voice is so calming, and I just felt safe in his presence. read more

Was literally just sitting in there for 20 minutes. No one said anything to me. And then when two people walked in before me instead of asking if I was waiting for someone because apparently walk-ins are welcome. They took the two people that walked in after me. Avoid this place at all cost they don't know customer service. read more

Love getting my haircut here. I go to Jack he's at the very front of the shop. Very funny & great service.

Legit cut from Cali. I will be coming back for sure! Pricing is affordable as well and cut didn't take a long time

Big shout-out to David for his professionalism. A client came in clearly having a bad day and started harassing both me and my barber, David. David stayed calm, kept the peace, and handled the situation the right way, especially with children around in the shop. He made me feel welcome and comfortable despite the situation. Because of how he handled everything, I'll definitely remain a loyal customer. Highly recommend this shop! read more

David h he's the man. I came here for the best service. I wouldn't go anywhere else ever since I met this guy he got me straight. Price is right. He's on time. Honestly, I wouldn't go anywhere else even if he charge double read more

Great shop. Spacious, clean, comfortable and nice guys. As soon as I entered, I was greeted. My son found this barbershop and he found Terence, the right barber... THANK GOODNESS! Terence is upbeat and has wonderful energy, and not to mention, his lineup game is DOPE . read more

Walked into the barber shop as a walk in, met Eric and he treated us like we were a regular, my boy sat in his chair and Eric make him feel comfortable right off the bat which is great for me. The better part is he did an amazing job on my buys cut. So much so that I brought my oldest son who allowed a 7th greaser cut his hair and messed it up real bad and Eric polished him up real nice after that butcher . read more

Had an appointment with the boy David which he was clueless that I was scheduled and he did a HORRIBLE HORRIBLE HORRIBLE job last time I go to the place. read more

I randomly stopped in to get a haircut for my son because our usual place was booked and honestly, I wasn't expecting much. But the barber Eric Lomeli was seriously impressive. He didn't rush through it like most barbers do with kids. He actually asked my son what kind of cut he wanted, explained what he was doing along the way, and just had this really chill energy that made my kid feel comfortable. Plus, the fade was clean. Like... way better than what we're used to. Safe to say, we WILL be back! read more

Caly is a great reliable and friendly barber. It's always a pleasure to get a haircut from her and being able to book online is super convenient. read more

True barbershop has amazing barbers, pick any and you'll have a good experience no doubt about it. I have gotten haircuts from Andre and Jonathan and have been going there for the last 2 years. The prices vary on the barber but they're all great at what they do. I like the vibes of the new location it is more open and spacious. read more

I had a great experience here. The staff was friendly and attentive. My haircut looked great. They offer a wash, included in the price.

Parents stay away from this place. Disappointing first experience. Took my 6 year old in on a Sunday afternoon as a walk-in without an appointment. The barbershop literally has empty chairs with barber sitting on his phone playing around but they refuse to take a walk-in. It's not about being told no or being rejected it's about how they treat potential customers and a little kid. Waiving your hand in front of your neck saying you have no time is absolutely not professional. Doesn't even bother to be courteous to a paying client that drove down to their shop. Absolute joke of a place. Wouldn't recommend walking into this shop with a child. They clearly do not know how to act in front of a child. read more

Been getting cut up by Danny Ruiz here at True Barbershop since he started working here and I haven't gone anywhere else since. He's a master at his craft and hasn't let me down. Every time he cuts me up I swear I'm getting hit on for the next two weeks by different women. I come back to him to tell the stories and make it a point to get cut by him at least every two weeks. 20/10 service, and he's a cool ass dude too. Come check him out, his work speaks for itself. read more

I have had the pleasure of working with Guillermo Betancourt since December of 2023. Over the last 6+ months I have watched him work as he meticulously tapers, trims, cuts and shapes my hair. As a Manhattan transplant (10+ years) I had my "go to" barbers/stylists, the last one for 8+ years. When we moved to Los Angeles, then to the Porter Ranch area, finding a barber was hit or miss for a good 3+ years. I found Guillermo accidentally, meaning, I was waiting for a cut at True, he was available, sat me down and listened. This is where many fail, they don't realize that a client's taste, and style may change, more importantly their skills needs to adapt to these requests to ensure that the client's needs are met. Guillermo listens every time I sit down, if it's the regular or its a new direction, he is patient and gets to work. I try to see Guillermo every 3 weeks, my hair grows fast but I do get busy and when I show up with a mop of hair, he uses his scissors, comb and clippers to create a finished product that gets the smile and nod of approval. Added bonus, Guillermo is reservoir of sports knowledge, if I didn't know any better I would have guessed he stepped off of First Take with Stephen A. Smith. I'm off to NYC for work next week. I have meetings with some heavy hitters within my industry. I'm now armed with a boost of confidence and a fresh fade that only a true seasoned and experienced stylist like Guillermo can deliver using the tools of his trade. #skills, #fadeisfire read more

Eric Lomelli at True Barber always does an amazing job. He hooked me up with a clean low fade and trimmed my beard perfectly -- exactly how I wanted it. The attention to detail and consistency is on point every time. If you're looking for a barber who takes pride in his work, Eric is the guy to see. Highly recommend. read more

This is the only barbershop I trust going to since I moved to Northridge. As a man, I feel having a great and reliable barber that is skilled and easy to communicate with is essential to adulthood. This is hard to find though. That is why since when I finally found the right barber for me, Daniel Ruiz at True Barbershop, I've been a loyal returning customer for nearly two years now and still going. Not only does he do great work, he's great with conversation and I feel like I'm not just getting a haircut, I feel like I'm hanging out with my homey. The staff at the shop is all chill too and they all say hey and bye when you enter or exit, making you feel welcome and one of their own. Definitely recommend Daniel and this barbershop! 10/10 read more
