My kiddo and I came in for his very first haircut, and they were so kind and understanding. He's only 18 months old and was really scared, but they took their time with him and never rushed the process. They even tried to offer him a lollipop to help make him more comfortable, which I really appreciated. In the end, he just wasn't having it, and when I tried to pay, they honestly refused to take my money. That really says a lot about their integrity. The shop was busy and full of happy customers, and you can tell they truly care. I would highly recommend coming here and look forward to returning in the future when he's a little older! read more

My happy place honestly. Clean, cool, and you come out looking like a champion. The spot is so solid, ALL the stalls are booked with quality barbers.... Hollywoods hidden gem goes to our friends @ Barbershop Friends! read more

Today I got a cut with Will, the fade was good however he really did a number on my beard. I specifically told him i was growing it out and just needed my neck line cleaned up and the sides tapered down a bit. He entirely cut off all the length from by beard basically throwing three months of effort down the drain. read more

After coming here for over 4 years and consistently spending up to $160 bucks a month unfortunately I think it's time to find a new barber the vibe has become trash In additional a few of their absolutely exceptional barbers one whom was actually female no longer worked there. I've noticed there's no longer a line out the door on a regular basis read more

Unprofessional owner, and no experience barbers. Brought my kids in for haircuts and the guy that attempted to cut my youngest hair (zero experience, you could easily tell, making faces since the very beginning) barely cut the top hair and didn't even touch the sides because my son was crying and the owner decided to tell him to stop cutting his hair so my 2 year old just got the top of his hair cut and I still got charger $30 bucks for a service that it wasn't complete and my kid was left worst. Terrible place, save your money and go somewhere else! Zero stars if I could. read more

I've been to this barbershop many times. I always make an appointment and get a very good haircut from Will or Liz. Unfortunately tonight I didn't make an appointment and got completely butchered by a random guy. Don't make my mistake and be sure to have an appointment with one of their highly reviewed barbers! read more

Great haircut in town! They have multiple people all absolutely wonderful and friendly, if you get there before 7, they will take you in! Wilfredo cut my hair, and he was wonderful. They mostly do speak Spanish there but there are stylists who will help you if you don't speak Spanish! Went there because a friend recommended it and I needed a haircut BAD! If you walk in it's $25.00 if you reserve online it's $35.00 so keep that in mind! Great service, wonderful haircut 10/10 I will go back! read more

Barber Shop Friends - Pull a number! - Barbers Near Me - Los Angeles, California

Do not book a haircut from Rafa. This is the first review I've ever written for anything because I thought it was necessary. I've gotten my hair cut here for the last 2 years and never had a bad experience until now. This is the only bad haircut and surprisingly unprofessional interaction I've had at Barber Shop Friends on Santa Monica Blvd and it was with Rafa. Will never book with him again. I called and booked a haircut appointment with Rafa for 2:15. I show up at 2:17 feeling bad for being a couple minutes late but am relieved to see he is still giving a hair cut to a previous customer... That feeling of relief quickly fades. I sit down and wait for 25 minutes for him to be finished and it constantly looks like it will only be a couple more minutes at max because the guys haircut was clearly done and Rafa wasn't cutting his hair anymore, just slightly poking at the edges every 15 seconds. This continues until 2:40. At 2:40 he takes the smock cover off of the guy so I stand up glad the wait is over because I have a busy day, only for Rafa to put it back on and continue the poking at the guys hair. I politely ask Rafa how much longer he needs, a woman sitting next to him translates my words into Spanish as if Rafa doesn't understand. I didn't get an answer so after an awkward silence I said "10 more minutes?" hoping he would understand. He nodded and said "ok" so I got up and went on a quick walk so I wouldn't have to wait on the plastic chair watching him do nothing for 10 more minutes. I come back 10 minutes later and thankfully he is done. Without greeting me he just looks at me and then the empty chair, so I sit down and point to one of the templates they have on the wall for a simple haircut. He changes it saying I may want a different one. Rather than arguing or trying to explain what I wanted again only for him not to understand, I agree to a different template because it was similar and I was already tired of having my appointment delayed by 35 minutes. From the start, he was very rough with the trimmer, felt as though he was dropping it into my skull on purpose with every cut. At the end the upper side part of my head had hair that was much longer than I wanted and longer than both the images that had been referenced so I asked him politely to cut it a bit shorter. Then in broken English he replied "next time tell me from the start you want that", I was surprised, because minor adjustments at the end were common, every time I had been there before they had had no problem and always asked at the end if you want anything changed, but not with Rafa. He was clearly annoyed I had asked him to change something very minor. I pointed to the picture on the wall and said how the image showed shorter hair than I had, and he repeated in broken English that I should "tell him next time". He started to put the hair cover smock back on but I having had enough just raised both of my hands and politely said "its ok" signaling I was done. At that point I had accepted that a suboptimal haircut that I didn't want was more palatable than interacting with Rafa any further. I had to repeat a few more times "its ok" and started to lift the smock before he understood I was done and unbuttoned it from behind. I stood up, politely asked how much it was, and tipped him 5 dollars, although I should have tipped zero. He aggressively just looked at me and said "BYE" and so I walked out. I WOULD recommend getting your hair cut at Barber Shop Friends, just not from Rafa. Besides him they are all very friendly, polite, and professional, and they serve the customer. read more

Great atmosphere and service every time - ask for Andres for your cut. I let him know I don't know what to get and he just said trust me. It came out amazing - he's my new barber read more

Great service and quality haircuts. Nice atmosphere made it really comfortable. Would recommend

I came here today for a simple fade. My hair is not that tricky to do. My regular stylist marks it very well so it's obvious what my hair style is and i even came in with it styled that way. The cut came out ok. But now i need to grow it out on the sides because its not the style I'm going for. Haircut gets a "C" But I'm actually writing Because the gentleman who cut my hair also convinced me to cut my beard I explained to him in detail that i liked a more natural furry look and he went in and i came out looking like a reggaeton artist (not my style). Not only that but my beard was was crooked in various areas and i ended up taking the razor from him and fixing it myself... then he proceeded to charge me. Dude you just fucked up my face at least offer me a discount. I didn't argue and paid it and was on my way. Very dissatisfied experience. I would expect that customer service at supercuts not here. I was just starting to like this place, but this is Last time i come here. read more

the freshest place to come get a haircut all barbers here are nice with it - clean , smooth cuts - fades all that Gooooooooooooo

Wasn't going to leave a bad review, but compelled to after my interaction with the owner who was very rude, spoke in a harsh tone and manner with me and showed no care for his customer. There was a misunderstanding as i asked for a beard trim but was given a "head shave" which is $15 more. Owner came and instead of trying to understand his customer and find a resolution, just pointed fingers at the prices and said "you asked for a shave" when clearly i had mentioned a trim. Ended up paying $15 more for a $5 trim. They just lost a customer as I won't be returning. I suggest you stay away as well if you can't speak Spanish to avoid being haggled for extra money with no remorse for customer care. read more

The service is amazing, they have great barbers. The vibe is relaxing. Definitely recommend Lucy!

Lizeth is the best barber in city and the area!!! Come with her and you will be happy with her job

Worst Haircut I've ever received. Barbers don't understand english so they don't give what the customers want.

If you want a fade this place will rock one out for you! I came in for my son and saw some BUSTED hair come in and leave like a million bucks! I literally could sit here and watch some of their clients go through a totally make over in minutes. The wait can be long but they get you in and out pretty quick. We got in at like 9:15 on a Saturday and were number 37 already! There is great soccer on TV so kick back and enjoy! read more

Been coming here for years. Their barbers are very good. I've always had a positive experience here. I recommend going from Monday-Wednesday because Fridays and weekends get very busy. read more

Brought my little brother here and the barbers and employees there are so nice! For the quality of the haircut he got, I honestly thought they'd charge more. I wish I could remember the barbers name who cut my brothers hair cause he treated my brother like his little homie we gave a 30% tip but honestly if I had more cash we would've given a higher tip! Clean place too and they even changed the tv to a movie so I can watch while my brother gets a haircut heheee read more

Barber Shop Friends - My little brothers haircut - Barbers Near Me - Los Angeles, California

I went there for my first time last week, and im going again tomorrow. They have about 8-10 barbers, you pick a number and wait till you be called, my wait time was 35min not bad for barbershop without appointment. My barber's name was Lizeth, I asked for a fade and beard line up, she did an amazing work, my skin is sensitive, I usually get razor burns but with her my face and neck was good, no cuts at all. read more

This little gem of a barber shop has changed locations in Hollywood and has more than doubled its number of barbers. Wilfredo is the owner and he and his fellow barbers are some of the hardest working barbers in all of Los Angeles. $12 haircuts! I give him a $20 because it doesn't seem right to pay just $12. They specialize in fades, low fades, taper, shaves, flat-top, afros and razor. Just tell him the cut you want and you'll get it. Check them out and keep these guys busy. They deserve it! NEW LOCATION: 4783 Santa Monica Blvd., L.A., CA 90029 Wilfredo Cell: 213-494-8817 Rafael Cell: 213-924-7546 read more

Wilfredo was super professional and gave me great feedback when I asked for his opinion. He even took pictures/video on my phone to show the process. The prices are very affordable, shop hours are convenient, and the staff is very friendly. It was great listening to Maná and some reggaeton while watching soccer and getting a cut. Only downside is that parking can be a little hard if the lot is filled. Other than that, great Latino-owned business that has my support. read more

I booked an appointment online for 12:30 didn't get attended till like 1:00 pm, I booked an appointment with RAFA for a haircut and a beard trim which gave me an approximate price of 50 dollars which I had no problem paying, he literally cut my hair in 10 minutes did not even ask about trimming my beard and that cost me about 40 dollars I was very disappointed and will not be coming back here, definitely rushed while attending me don't waste ur time making a prior appointment. read more

This is my new place! Just moved to the area and now I'm too far/lazy to drive all the way to Playa del Rey for a haircut. Saw Friend's was in walking distance, so this was a very big calculated risk. My hair is very precious to me. Luis crushed it. Excellent work, felt like he actually cared about making my hair look good as opposed to just rifling through customers to make more money. I explained to him what I wanted and he took the reigns and executed it wonderfully. No cool fades for me, just a hipster ass uneven mop on top. Spanish soap opera playing on the TVs, and the clientele seems to be happy locals who all know each other. And best part of all: only $15. This is a $30 cut, easily. So get over here and let these folks treat you right. But do it on a weekend when I'm working so I don't have to wait for you because I'm sure there will be massive lines. PRO TIP: when you walk in, if you don't have an appointment, look to your right and grab a number like at the DMV. That way you don't look like a fool like me, just standing around, unsure of what to do. read more

Had my first cut here 2 days ago. I'm a lifer now thanks to Miguel. Best high and tight fade I've had in years, HANDS DOWN! Go see my man Miguel. Great kid too, great customer service, great attitude. Give this kid a raise. read more

I really wanted to like this place. In all fairness it's important to be transparent with an honest experience. The first time I went, I was browsing wether or not to get a haircut there. One of the guys there was pressing himself on me. With all due respect, if I do business somewhere, I want to be confident in the services. I didn't end up going with that barber but instead someone else I saw cutting hair. The first 2 times that haircuts were not bad however the consistency was not there. After the two haircuts the other 2 were just not evenly cut. One thing to note: I speak Spanish and the guys there were speaking a language in Spanish to be honest I felt like he was talking about me. It was weird and it didn't happen just once. The reason I'm giving this place an honest 1 star is because of the unprofessionalism. People can be skilled but if you're not professional it's not worthwhile. The owner is rude. And the guy that cut my hair didn't produce the results I was looking for. I'm in the service industry, I love tipping and all that good stuff and recognize when I receive poor quality work. I do like the cleanliness of the bathroom. I'd rather pay more money somewhere else where they are more professional, respectful and overall are consistent with the quality results. read more

Awesome place and very very fast, no matter who you cut your hair with you will atomically have an amazing haircut no doubt!

El mejor barber shop de LA le corto a mi hijo ahi desde que nació prácticamente ya 3 años y son muy cuidadosos con los Niños, y tiene mucha paciencia 100% recomendo read more

First time here, let me tell you their barbers give the cleanest cuts. A bit pricy but worth it

This place has some of the best barbers in the city but also the most rudest and unprofessional barbers. They are unlike the name of the establishment. They don't greet you upon your arrival, you take a number, sit and wait for them to call your number in their native language. If you don't speak their native tongue you just may never get a cut. Some of the barbers try to accommodate the English speaking clients but it's on rare occasions. The wait is so unpredictable because if they feel like working slower to pass you up they will take up to an hour on a cut. The vibe is unfriendly and unwelcoming. If you are looking to be talked about or completely ignored this would be the perfect barber shop. It's best to go when they 1st open but even then you just may have to wait because they will take their time in preparing for the day. read more

i came here back in August 2018 as i was new to Los Angeles and took the advice of a friend. It has been over a year and i have not changed my destination for a fresh fade, nor do i think i ever will. The men and women who give cuts here are all fabulous at their craft. I have never gotten a bad haircut here. there is a language barrier; but not to a fault. I tell them what i want, and while i sit in the chop seat i hear laughter and music, almost like i'm in a family barber shop. i don't care that i cannot understand a majority of what they say; i respect each barber and they respect me back. thank you guys for consistently refreshing my confidence. read more

Went here many times. Usually a pretty decent fade. But one time i went and the guy really messed up my hair. Never in my life have I complained about a haircut to the point where I had to literally shave my whole head down to #2 in order to make it look good. And the people were so rude about it. It really looked like a chunk was taken out of the front of my head. They were also very strange to me and my boyfriend. I am not fluent in Spanish but could catch a word here and there. They were always making fun of us for being fat and gay. Definitely never felt welcomed. But the haircuts were cheap and mostly ok. But after that one time and how they acted when I asked them to fix my hair. Never again. Go somewhere else. read more

Brought my son for his Thanksgiving hair cut! First time here. Been searching for a barbershop near by. Had an appointment with Rafa. He was nice and checked with me to see if I was ok with his work on my son. He did an amazing job with my sons hair. Will definitely come back. read more

I went to the shop yesterday, Eric new guy has been there for two weeks. He greeted me right away with telling me his name and discussed hair cut options. This guy is amazing does a great job and takes his time to make you look good. The entire time we had a conversation and felt great sitting and getting my hair cut. I've been coming here for a long time and all the guys are good including the owner, for me my go to guy is Eric from now on. I'm real happy with his cut and the service he gave. Thank you again Eric God Bless you. He is real friendly, smart guy who gives you options of what will go with you. Thanks Buddy. read more

This is a great barbershop! They do it all: great haircuts, beard and moustache trimming, even eyebrows. And they do it at a very reasonable price. I'm there every other week and Josselin makes me look great! She's one of only a few women, but she's amazing, so I usually wait for her. You may have to wait a while, especially on the weekends, but it's a testament to how popular they are. Want a great haircut without spending a lot of money, come to Barber Shop Friends. read more

They cut hair nicely and very friendly. The price is fair. The wait time is ridiculously long and parking is not very friendly. read more
