I've been going to Desmond for about 10 years now. The service is always top-notch, and you can tell he genuinely cares about his clients and his craft. This isn't the kind of barbershop where you're rushed in and out just to get through the next appointment. Desmond takes his time, listens to what you want, and makes sure you leave with exactly the look you're after. On top of that, it's always a great atmosphere and an enjoyable experience every time I visit. For the past six months, I've been growing my hair out for my wedding, and Desmond has been helping me shape it every step of the way. He's made sure it looks great throughout the awkward growing-out phase while keeping me on track for the style I want on my wedding day. I highly recommend this shop and everyone who works there. they're all talented professionals. But if you have the opportunity to book with the master himself, ask for Desmond. If you can get a spot on his schedule, you won't be disappointed. read more

I've been getting my hair cut by Des for over 14 years. When I first met him, I came in with a picture of the haircut I thought I wanted. Instead of just copying it, he took the time to explain how different hairstyles work with different hair types, textures, and head shapes. His knowledge, confidence, and passion definitely stood out. Over the years, he's helped me find a style that actually works for me, and as my hair has changed with age, he's adapted right along with it. Most of the time, I don't even need to tell him what I want--he already knows. What sets Des apart is that he listens first, gives honest professional advice, and genuinely wants you to leave looking and feeling your best. If you're looking for a barber who cares about his craft and his clients, I can't recommend him enough. read more

I've visited Antonetti's about 2-3 times this year to get my hair done by Chrissy. I actually found her through a hair modeling post on Instagram and haven't gone to another hair stylist since! Chrissy is very gentle and accommodating. I don't feel shy about my hair visions when I talk to her because she is really open to trying new things, and incredibly creative! I can tell that she pays attention to the details and how your hair will look with your particular features. I also really like that Antonetti's is intimate. I think that they only have about 4 chairs, and not everyone works at the same time. So, it isn't loud inside and the space is really well-maintained. Not to mention, there are big windows looking out to the parking lot (which, in my experience, parking has never been an issue there) and a good amount of natural light comes in. Definitely come for the good vibes and chill energy. If you're looking for someone who will think out of the box with you, ask for Chrissy!!! read more

I have nothing but great things to say about Antonetti's Hair! I came to get a balayage done back in March, and the staff there were too kind and very welcoming! They got me a drink from Starbucks and the atmosphere/energy was amazing as everyone enjoyed what they do. To be more specific, shout out to my hairstylist, Chrissy Calma! She executed exactly what I had envisioned for my balayage and after a few months, my balayage has grown out really nicely and looks very lived in. Will definitely be back soon! read more

I booked a women's haircut with Kimberly at Antonetti's Hair for Men, knowing I wanted a change but having absolutely no clue what direction to go in. I asked Kimberly her thoughts on adding bangs and trimming my split ends. She asked me a few questions about my styling and hair care habits. Kimberly made it a point to keep things low-maintenance for me while giving me a whole new style. I ended up getting the bangs, and she actually helped me discover that my hair has a natural wave I never knew existed! I have received so many compliments since. She even gave me a couple of easy pointers on how to style it if I ever want to switch things up. I am so happy with my haircut! read more

I did a bad thing - woke up in the morning, grabbed scissors and started cutting my bangs... too short and too blunt. Immediately regretted it, went online and promptly booked an appointment with Steve. I have followed Steve from Studio O and trust him with my hair. He has executed perfectly every-time and has a great vibe every-time. Showed him some inspo pics and he fixed my bangs and cut my long hair to a short, textured and layered hair. Steve has also perviously done dimension balayage on me, which I miss a lot and plan to book for again as soon as I have the funds!! I posted old pics of that along with the shag cut I eventually got from him as well!! ‍ Love the location of the salon, it's safe and clean and very homey. Thank you Steve for always styling me so well! Check out his instagram! @styledbysteveadkins & Chrissy @hairbychrissycalma a talent with hair as well who trained under him read more

My husband has gone to barbers his entire life, and after trying so many in the area, he rarely came home truly happy with his haircut. After his last experience left his hair completely butchered, I suggested we try a professional salon that specializes in clipper and scissor cuts. I booked him an appointment with Desmond for a cut and beard trim, and I'm so glad I did. He came home looking incredibly handsome -- hands down the best haircut of his life. Desmond not only nailed the look, but also fixed the mistakes from the previous barber with ease. My husband couldn't stop talking about how kind Desmond was and how much he loved the relaxed, welcoming vibe of the shop. We've officially found the place. read more

If you're a guy looking for a top-tier haircut in Long Beach, Steve at Antonetti's Hair is the one to see. I've been to plenty of barbers and stylists over the years, and Steve stands out by a mile. He knows exactly how to tailor a cut to your face shape, hair type, and personal style. What I really appreciate is how detail-oriented he is--fades are tight, lines are clean, and the styling advice he gives actually works. Plus, Steve is super easy to talk to--no awkward small talk, just a chill vibe and great conversation if you're up for it. He's professional, punctual, and clearly takes pride in making his clients look their best. If you're a guy in Long Beach who wants a sharp, consistent cut (and someone who gets men's hair), go see Steve at Antonetti's. You won't be disappointed. read more

I came to Steve after a botched up "haircut" from another stylist and was nervous about letting anyone fix it. I found him on Instagram (@StyledBySteveAdkins), looked through his work, and decided to book through there. I didn't give him much direction other than "make me pretty" and he HEARD ME! brought my hair back to exactly what I had originally wanted. He really took his time fixing the shape and making everything blend the way it should have from the start. And I FEEL PRETTY!!! Steve was professional, confident, and clearly knows his shit. I walked out feeling like I needed to spend a day on the town and did exactly that. Honorable mention to his dog, Ozzy Mae, who made the whole experience even better. Plus protected the salon from all the foreign noises. I'm really glad I found him and can't wait to go back for my balayage!! read more

Steve is my go to for haircuts for the past two years. I have long hair and he's been the only hair mechanic that has been able to cut my hair in a way that lets it grow longer than I've ever had it. He's a great listener and always asks for my input before making big decisions. I can also trust him with what he thinks would look best for my hair. He's great at texturing and adding volume. I always walk out happy with my cut and style. If you're looking for a new hair stylist try Steve! You won't regret it. read more

I've been growing out my hair for a few years and having spent the majority of my life going to the same barber, I was a little nervous walking into a salon. But I was struggling with my curly/wavy textur until I saw Chrissy! She was very attentive and asked plenty of questions. Chrissy recommended I use some new products and showed me how to apply product the right way. More importantly she showed me the benefits of using a diffuser. I feel like Chrissy really took a good look at my hair and where it was looking bulky, ultimately gave me a trim that helped get rid of some weight while still keeping my curls. Total game changer. My curls have never looked better!! read more

I've booked with Steve for a trim the past few times I've needed a haircut (like every 2-3 months). I always was happy that he would refresh my long hair layers without taking too much off. I rocked long hair for the 15 years but been toying with the idea of a shorter cut. I feel like Steve is the only person I would trust with such a task. He made me feel comfortable about the decision and I absolutely love my new cut. He kept it very my style. The salon is nice and relaxed Easy parking. Puppy (Ozzy Mae) present too for all the good vibes. Definitely recommend! read more

When my hairdresser of 20+ years ( she used to cut my bangs) decided to retire, I was looking everywhere for a hair artist who would be able to do what I would like, which is an icy blonde baylage, with my hair naturally being thin, frizzy etc. I stumbled upon Steve via his reviews and looking on social media. He truly is the best! He delivered exactly what I wanted and more! He provided excellent customer service and you can tell he really tries to achieve the look YOU want. Not to mentions the salon/studio is very cute and subtle which makes the experience that much more pleasant read more

I can't say enough good things about Steve Adkins! After a terrible experience elsewhere, I was nervous about getting my hair done again, but he took his time and worked his magic. This man's fingers have their own biceps because that scalp massage was unreal. The end result was even better than I hoped for--I feel confident and love my hair again!

Antonetti's has that level of personal, quality service that is so rare to find. It's what's brought me back for years, even when they changed locations. The stylists are all highly skilled, personable, and excel in making you look and feel great. The owner, Desmond, is not only professional, but one of the hardest working people I know. If there were 6 's to give it'd still be too few. read more

Made an appointment for 10am. I rushed to leave the house to make it here by 10. By 10:40am the salon was not open, stylist is a no show. What a way to spend a Sunday morning just waiting around. Most importantly, tardiness would have been fine but I had to chase down the salon by calling them multiple times rather than them reaching out to me to communicate this, they just had me waiting around. I mean..... come on. That's how you run a business. Finally via text they respond. read more

I found Steve Adkins at the studio O last year and he cut my hair..... I followed him for my second haircut and it was even better.

I can't say enough good things about Steve at Antonetti's Hair! When my longtime colorist moved away, I was genuinely worried--it's so hard to find someone who truly knows how to work with blonde. But Steve completely exceeded my expectations. He really listened to what I wanted, and his attention to tone, placement, and overall dimension is next-level. My blonde looks natural, fresh, and bright without being brassy or flat--exactly what I was hoping for. The entire experience was relaxed, professional, and honestly kind of therapeutic (you know it's real when you're actually excited for your next appointment!). If you're a blonde and picky about your color (like me), Steve is your guy. I'm so relieved to have found him and seriously grateful for the beautiful work he does. Highly recommend! read more
