What Santa Barbara says

80 reviews, 4.5 on Yelp

My 100.6 year old father needed a haircut badly. We were in town for a couple of medical appointments and had some time to kill. Finding a shop that meets his expectations of old time simplicity in a town we are only a little familiar with can be challenging. I called and was able to get an appointment within an hour. The atmosphere was hip yet what you would typically think of a barber shop. I'm sure it isn't every day that they cut the hair of a WWII veteran. Jeremy was kind and very detailed. He even trimmed his eyebrows! I was super impressed since in the 5 years since he moved here from South Carolina, no barber has ever done that! We have to come to town frequently, so we will be back. Thanks for taking care of my dad Jeremy!

Been going here for a while now, music and vibes are great. My old barber left but Daniel took me in on short notice and I've been a regular since. His attention to detail is really good and always adheres to requests and delivers. The owner always greets everyone that comes in and it is a very inviting atmosphere.

Love the vibe in here. Pool table is a great idea, literally was bummed that it was my turn for a cut. Dope cuts, professional crew.
