Followed Kat, my longtime stylist, here and I wish my hair would grow faster so I could make a return trip sooner because Arenas' rules. Arenas' one of those rare, truly old school barbershops that are the source material for the modern old school (but wholly sanitized) barbershops that serve as a Bat Signal that you've entered the latest hip neighborhood. There's nothing hip about the block where you'll find Arenas', unless of course you recognize the magic in having a bar next door that specializes in board games or you want to have a cheat day with Colonel Sanders at the KFC on the corner. But all of this is OK because Burbank rules without even having to try. Go get a haircut from Kat at Arenas' and on the way home stop at the Train Shack and watch the model trains for a while or work off those buttermilk biscuits by taking some hacks at the Batcade. read more

This place always does me right. I can count on everyone there to always give me a great cut. They follow pictures very well and clearly know what they're doing. The place is really chill and everyone is easy to talk to. read more

Awesome spot to get a great hair cut. I'm not particularity fancy and I like a simple clean hair cut, luckily Ed knows exactly what I want and always delivers. They have a clean shop that is inviting and comfortable. Highly recommended if you live in the Burbank area. read more

Literally the best haircut I've gotten. Ofelia did an amazing job. Took me in with a 3hr notice and rocked it. I got so many compliments.

Friendly service, Great haircut, reasonably priced. Cash Only establishment but bless them they let me venmo the money. Will be back

Absolutely do not go here. My hair was ruined by ed the day of my wedding. It looks professional from the outside but the cut does not meet that. The guys hands were so shaking so bad he cut my ear with the clippers. When he was done he sounded very proud of his work but when i told him it was not what i wanted he said well how about i do this one in the house and I'll fix it for you next time. Sorry sir but there is not going to be a next time. This is what i get for trusting people too much read more

What can I say that anyone who has been to Arenas' and has had the best experience ever hasn't already said? I went in for a different reason this time. I usually see Ed for the most excellent and sharp fade but this time, I went in to trim my now very lengthy hair and made an appointment with Denise. Denise is quite possibly the sweetest person I have ever met with a personality to match and amazing skills. She gave me a perfect trim and even fixed up my sideburns and mustache while she was at it. I am very happy to say that I will be a regular of hers and am already looking forward to my next visit. I'm sure if you visit any one of the talented and friendly people at Arenas', you too will become a regular. read more

Arena's will ALWAYS be my #1 spot for a cut. Ed gives the best fades and conversation but I can guarantee that you'll be just as happy with your cut no matter which seat you're in I go there once a month and I always look forward to my next visit. Great prices. Great place. Friendly environment and always a great cut! Book your appointment and save time on waiting. read more

Ed always gives a great haircut! Everyone who has cut my hair at Arenas has been terrific.

Found Arenas' while I was on vacation. I'm not picky about my hair / beard, and trust the professionals to know what's in style wise. Walked in and was immediately greeted by James, who sat me down and asked what I was looking for. Great cut , great beard shape up, and great atmosphere. Highly recommend James. read more

Wonderful experience. Steve and Denise are a top notch duo. Talented team with high quality generational expertise. Looking forward to our next haircut and reminiscing visit! read more

Would go lower if possible. 1. Received a haircut that I did not ask for, nor was anything like the picture down to me prior. 2. I politely leave and call over the phone to request a refund as to not disrupt the business. 3. Was basically blackmailed to take down my post in exchange for the refund I was promised. After trying to politely waiting to ask for my refund then being coerced for 20 Minutes: It they don't play around. If you're black, get ready for a high top fade because that's the only black cut they know how to do and they are too prideful to admit it. Run an honest business, not one that covers up the ugly parts. I will leave my review for my fellow customers to tread with clear warning signs. Original Post: Asked for one cut, was even shown pictures somewhat of what I was looking for, then got something completely different. Shouldn't have paid for the cut. If you're black I recommend you put in the extra effort to find a black barber. read more

I've been coming here for about a year and I think I can truly make an honest decision on arenas barber shop. Had my haircut today by Jarett who was extremely accommodating and listened to all of my ideas for how I wanted my hair to look including an expertly done hard part . He couldn't have done a better job. To be honest it's one of the cooler haircuts I've gotten in a long long time. I've also had my hair cut by everyone except the very nice woman who works there as well and all of them have done a masterful job. They all create a very warm staple barbershop atmosphere that also makes getting your haircut very fun. I honestly can't think of a better place to recommend to get a fantastic haircut. And remember if they do a great job give them a great tip as well because they definitely deserve it. read more

I never write reviews but I felt after living in Burbank for over 40 years and my experience with the owner of this barbershop arena I need to write this review I went in there and ask them to cut my hair off arena looked at me with a shop full of white only customers and stated to me that she does not do my type of hair that I can go to the Armenian shop next-door note that I am African-American retired and have gone in this barbershop before but yet she tells me that she cannot do my type of hair because it is kinky and it takes a special type of training this Was said to me with only Caucasian customers being serviced at this time this is so embarrassing and humiliating as all the white customers and workers looked at me as if I did something wrong by entering their establishment. i truly hope that Arena reads this and remember that day and that moment And open her heart and mind to break this cycle and become more diverse in truly serving the community. read more

Just another 5 star review for these guys. I was getting tired of paying stupid money for bad haircuts and even worse attitudes from Floyd's and decided to try Arena's. I'm glad I did. The place was clean, comfortable and cool looking. The guys were very welcoming to a new customer and Ed gave me the exact haircut I described. What more can I say. Highly recommended. read more

Highly recommend this place. Call and they'll find you a spot. Schedule and they're eager to meet your needs. Best cuts in town, both having vets and up and coming barbers. Been the best place I've gone to read more

Took my five year old in today. A kid who is notorious for hating haircuts. Denise, the owner, changed that for good. Maybe he just hated the haircuts I'd been taking him to! Lots of noise and kids, some crying. She worked quickly but with expertise. She kindly guided him through sitting still, probably better than Mom did. Lol. Such a great atmosphere and an all around wonderful experience. It felt like a BIG deal that he was now at the REAL barber. She gave him an amazing haircut with the little she had to work with. Will definitely be back, wish I had been taking him here since he was a little guy. And I love their little vintage school desk. Thank you, Denise! read more

Talk about excellent service!! from the moment I waked in, I was greeted with genuine appreciation for my business. Haircut was great and reasonably price. They had a full house and the wait was still very short. Ed did a great job and was just a terrific person, who even did me a personal favor out of pure kindness. Definitely recommend you check them out! read more

First time there and already feels like I been here for years it's little difficult to find this hidden gem. This place is warm inviting and personable I been going to another local barber shop but never felt like I belonged or was even wanted?? As soon as I walked in I was greeted and told it won't be long. Few minutes later Arbi helped me, right away he ask about how I like my cut and few other questions to get to know me. He is very professional, detailed with the cut & style I wanted. The best part he kept his area and tools very clean. I was surprised they are also on the less expensive-side for $28.00 I was feeling fresh ready to go. I will be back and bring my son next time. read more

Want the absolute Highest Quality and service from a truly unique Barber shop? I'm 58 years old and have never had anyone shave my face until now. WoW, what an excellent experience with top quality professionals. When you leave, your leaving with the comfort of knowing that you were with a team of the highest quality of expertise that you would expect to find at high end retail shops in Beverly Hills. Only thing different the prices are amazing for the product that they deliver and is impressively impeccable. Anyone that feels anything otherwise must have came on a busy day or maybe it just wasn't their day. The quality nod service is off the charts. Denise, steve, Ed and Arbi thank you for all your hard work in making Areans Barber Shop the best In So California. read more

I've been coming to Arenas Barbor Shop for a few months now and can say that I love this place. My main barbor Arby has always been consistent and reliable, very professional and takes his time to make sure your haircut is on point! I have never been rushed or left disappointed. Arby is very knowledgeable, has mastered the craft and caters to any occasion. With out a doubt I can already tell Steve has been cutting hair for a while, after going to another barbor that messed up my hair I was fortunate enough to have Steve fix my cut and even make it look better than it was before. Denise the owner is always at the location, checks in to make sure we are good and remembers everyone that comes in. Denise is the popular one and everyone always greets and knows her. This place must have a lot of regulars. For the most part, this place has mastered the essentials for a great haircut, and feeling welcomed by professionals, who are consistent , cater to your needs and provide amazing service. It's easy to make this place my new go to. read more

Arenas' barbershop is like no other. There is a welcoming feeling every time you step in the shop. Denise and company are friendly, yet professional. My go to barber is Ed, he has stories after stories, and Ed is a proud Father of a Soldier, who is currently serving our country. read more

I've been on the hunt for a new barber for some time. Imagine paying $35 for a kids haircut which took over an hour! When I would take both boys= two hours at the barber shop!!! So, Yelp to the rescue! After a day at the park, I decided to get the kids mop chopped off. As we walked in, we were kindly greeted with a beautiful bright smile. Eddie "Spaghetti ", came over to us and the little kid quickly warmed up and sat in his chair. 13 minutes later, we were done and it only cost me $23 (with $5 tip). I am beyond elated! Thank you Eddie for a great haircut and a welcoming personality. And a huge THANK YOU to the shop owner for keeping honest pricing. We will see you again in a few weeks read more

Great little barber shop! Old school charm and Denise gives me a great cut every time. I just wish they would wash my hair after a cut. If you have to go back to work, you're probably going to itch. Other than that, cmon in and give em a try... read more

I found this place on Yelp, and went in one Saturday to get a haircut after letting my hair grow far too long. My barber, Denise, was very attentive and did a very good job despite my nebulous description of what I wanted. My haircut came out great, and the price was right. Not much else needs to be said. And it's got that old-timey barber shop feel, too. My roommate also tried it out recently, and he had only had his hair cut by his mom and sister (who own a salon), and was very satisfied. It's walk-ins everyday but Thursday, as you can schedule an appointment that day for a few extra bucks. My wait on a Saturday around 10 am was only about ten minutes or so. read more

I randomly stumbled into this barbershop after moving to the neighborhood a few years ago and never bothered to go anywhere else, Steve & Denise (the owners) are fantastic. Their cuts are great and reasonably priced, and it's always a very welcoming atmosphere. My favorite barbershop I've ever visited...sad that I am moving away so I won't be getting my cuts there anymore. There is plenty of street parking nearby, haircuts are under $20, and the atmosphere is good. On select days they also have a masseuse in the shop to offer chair massages. Can't promote this shop enough. read more

I will refuse to go anywhere else but here. about 8 months ago I passed by Floyds barber shop, I was recommended to go there so i did, these guys couldn't cut for SH*****T man i left 35 or 40 bux less from my pocket for the shittiest job ever... i could of gone to super cuts paid 10 bux probably?!? and got a more decent haircut then from Floyds... sure the atmosphere is nice n all but when it comes down to what you are there for??? COME TO ARENAS'.... like I said its been probably past 8 months now that im going there and i cant stop going there. Very friendly staff and they treat you like one of there own friends, oh and your wondering if they can cut hair? would i be going there for 8 months if they couldn't? Love these guys. Thank you. read more

Been coming here for a couple years. Steve and Arbi have taken great care of me. They listen to what you want, most importantly. I usually go for a taper fade, and scissor trim off the top. Sometimes I have some specific instructions on the shape of the cut, and they nail it every time. read more

This is a great neighborhood barbershop. A good cut with a fantastic price, hence the 4 stars. Much better service and attention that bigger chain "barber" shops. I definitely recommend this shop to anyone in the area. read more

Stoppedby for a haircut for my picky teenage son. We walked in without an appointment. The place was packed, but the wait was worth it. Joe did an amazing job on my sons hair. He asked questions and cut exactly how we wanted. He was fast and professional. Thank you Joe, see you in 3-4 weeks read more

Arenas' Barbers Shop is like going Back to the Future for anyone that grew up going to a barber shop instead of a cut and blow "factory" The only thing missing was a guy in the corner shining shoes. Everything there is Old School! One of my vendors told me about the shop and a great guy that could give me a "Shave and a Haircut" Yes it was more than Two Bits, but worth every cent. So I now have a new barber and his name is Jarett. I will never go to a haircut factory again. And next time I want a REALLY close shave it is Jarett that will be doing it for me. read more

After spending the last 25 years of my life going to Supercuts for my hair cut, I was in need of a change. I'm a young dude and most times, simply ask to get my head buzzed. No styling, nothing fancy, just a buzz with the clippers. Typically, this "complicated" 5-minute cut costs $20 at Supercuts before tip! So I searched Yelp, found Arena's and couldn't be happier. They were quick, attentive and cheap. I spent $13 before tip and received an excellent cut. Unfortunately, they don't take cards. So ditch your chain-store salon and visit Arena's. read more

Ever walk out of a place after getting your hair cut thinking to yourself: "It'll look better when once I wash it." Or: "once I put some gel or paste in my hair it will look alright". Or my favorite: "I need to find another place to fix whatever it is they just did." If you're like me, this has happened to you on several occasions- and if you're even more like me....it really pisses you off! For whatever reason I have always had a hard time finding a decent place to get a haircut at a reasonable price. And why is that so many hair salon places have the cheesiest names known to humankind? "Hair we are", "Shear Beauty", "In the root". Why is this ok? Who signed the business license with out looking at them and just going....."No"!? It seems to me that if the owners spent half the time they did thinking up the stupid name of their place actually learning how to give a dude a decent haircut they may have more patrons. But I digress. Why? Arenas Barbershop that's why. It's really a perfect fit for everything thing I want in a barber........good haircut and good conversation. Plain and simple. I suppose what attracted me to this place is that there is no resemblance of the many......and there are many......places that have made me look like a left a chromosome at home that day. All the stupid glamor hair posters and really really really bad music playing. I also never liked when some stylist would finish a 4 hour long dye cut perm press straighten highlight bleach holy shit job on some girl....then walk over to me like "sigh....what do you want today". If you share these frustrations....get your hair cut here. I always ask for Steve. Good cut, well priced, no rush and no frustration flashbacks. 4.5 read more
