Shout out to soco he is the best barber read more

I have been a customer of Big Boy's barber shop for many years, Soco always takes care of my hair cut always on point highly recommend it.

Wasted my time, I wouldn't recommend coming here and making an appointment because they'll most likely lie and say you came to late and won't take you. Scheduled an appointment for 9:20 and came early and one of the unprofessional barbers had the audacity to say I'm late... I'd give 0 stars if possible. Wouldn't recommend coming here if you care about professionalism!! Even though I wouldn't expect it from a barber shop with cages in front and blacked out tinted windows in El Monte. On top of all that they only have 2 barbers with 4-5 chairs which makes no sense. Makes it seem they're smoking crack on there free time. Stay away from places like this.. what's even funnier is that the fact I called in last week on a Saturday to schedule an appointment and they said were not going to work that day or the next and when I asked for Wednesday they said they "might" be working and they're not sure.. Started becoming a regular there too, sucks to see they don't care about anything when it comes to there business. read more

Big Boy's Barber Shop - Jason - Barbers Near Me - El Monte, California

This place is very fresh. Right when we walked it the cold air hit my face. There's nothing better than to wait 25 minutes while my son gets a haircut. The Cushioned seats and the 6 ft away for Covid purposes. Beautiful music in Spanish. The barber was very focused and all in to his work. I' d say to Elmonte Residance this is the place to come. We drive from Riverside for this lovely place. You want a hair cut come here thanks for letting me share my story on this Beautiful Saturday Aug.6,2022 read more

I used to come here often. Wait time is between 1 hour to 3 hours depending on the day. One time I came about an hour before they closed. They saw me walking toward the door and literally I saw through the glass the man ran to lock the door. No courtesy of letting me know they were fully booked or anything. These people don't know how to act just cause they been getting busier. Parking is mediocre only 3 cars at the time. Don't park in the boba shop you'll get towed up 200$ per night. These are the barbers tik tokers often talk about read more

They favor Appointments over Walk Ins which would be no big deal but I was left waiting while Barber sat with four of us who were there for a haircut. As barber scanned a catalog, after 10 minutes I asked how long he was going to wait. He said his appointment was at 4. It was 3:42. I was next up. I told him he could wait and went to Girard's a few doors down. I walked out with the haircut I wanted at 4:03. I wasted 45 minutes plus waiting. I've walked out 5 times before but they're good about saying the wait is long and when you see barbers hustling I appreciate their honesty. Haircuts here are generally good. The lack of hustle and sitting with customers waiting for service was too much. In Boot Camp they pretty much did our whole head in 90 seconds flat. If you can't do a High and Tight in 15 to 20 minutes... read more

This barber shop is always upgrading, new look inside makes you feel like you're not in ghetto hole in the wall barber shop. Would recommend to family and friends! Only place I trust for the past decade to give me a clean fade at an affordable price! Appointments recommended unless you want to wait for a while. read more

Big Boy's Barber Shop - Barbers Near Me - El Monte, California

We've recently moved to El Monte. My son is super picky in who handles his cuts. It was very hard for the new change in barber shop. Big boys was not a good first time experience. I believe my son waited almost 2 hrs and no one approached him lol ( teenagers ‍). I ended up calling my son to see what the hold up was about. I called the shop and ask why my son was waiting so long ( they thought my son waiting for someone). However, they assisted my son and he was happy. I haven't had any issues afterwards. My son loves that fact that he can text his barber Will (which is super convenient) to save a spot for an upcoming cut. The prices are affordable and staff is friendly. My 15 yr old son is going on 6 months with Big boys barber shop. Thanks Will for meeting my son needs and wants. You're the man . read more

My spot to take my boys to get a fresh cut book ur appointment super clean shop really friendly n luv how they treat my boys.

Best place to get a cut! Great atmosphere with great employees that do an amazing job. You get that good barber shop feel when you come here and they are even great with kids. They all take there time and have patience with every single person they cut. I've been coming here for a few years now and don't let anyone touch my hair since I first came here. The only bad thing is the wait. The wait could take a few hours especially on weekends so just be prepared for that. I do my best to come during a weekday and before like 4 right when everyone starts getting outta work so just a heads up ;) read more

Yesterday was my first time here. I brought my little brother and usually when he gets haircuts he can't stay still. But Carlos honestly did such an amazing job. My little brother wasn't moving and loved his haircut after. I highly recommend coming to this barbershop and if you have kids definitely ask for Carlos. He has so much patience with kids! I will definitely be coming back! read more

I've been coming here for a while they're cool and all but two times already I show up early and they let clients walk right in and go ahead of me saying they have an appointment even though I've been waiting for 2 hours with no heads up about appointments ahead of me.. If I didn't need a haircut bad because I need to go to a wedding I would just walk out. I'll wait this time like a gentleman but I wont be coming back. I understand you guys charge more for appointments and that puts more money in your pocket faster but without some kind of system that keeps walk in customers happy sorry to say you're gonna lose a few customers like this. Maybe you guys are good like this more power to you. read more

Followed my barber Moi here from Big Mikes. I never get a bad haircut from Moi. He takes his time and makes sure your cut is perfect before you leave. I usually get a taper and his fade is always on point. I always make an appointment because I prefer not to wait. The appointment price is $25. This place is cash only so keep that in mind before going. read more

First time trying this place. Just walked in and there were a few people ahead of me, but plenty of barbers. Got attended within 10 minutes. Took a chance and I don't regret it. Big thanks to my new favorite barber, Moises, for doing a fantastic job and also dealing with my long and very overdue haircut. Definitely going back read more

Don't go to Big Boy's unless you want to get covid19. None of the four employees wear masks and also no masks for the several people who seem to be there to simply visit with the barbers. Barbers readily shake hands with everyone that comes through the door and there is no social distancing. Chairs are right next to each other and several are occupied by visitors. The place is small and there is no way to stay seperated. read more

Worst wait ever, they give priority to people they know and tip them on the low! Used to be a regular but got tired of waiting. Waited 2 hours today. Never again read more

I came here based on the Yelp reviews, Moises had great reviews, whoever he's only available by appointment only. My mistake was letting another gentleman Manuel cut my hair. I gave him simple instructions he went an and gave me one of the worst haircuts I've ever had. He is horrible! Buyer beware. I will only return if I get an appointment with Moises. Parking is sparse on the street but plenty of spaces at the strip mall across the street. Bathroom is clean and this place is kid friendly. Update I made my second visit to this business and arrived just before closing without an appointment. Moises was kind enough to invite me to sit in his chair for haircut. He did not rush me he took the appropriate time and attention to even the smallest details to give me one of the best haircuts I have ever had. He followed my instructions 100%. I will be returning to him for all future haircuts and make my appointment so that I ensure my time with him. The price was fair I left him and generous tip as well. read more

The guys there seem nice. I came across this barber shop since I read they are good so driving from Alhambra, had to go try them out for my son. I don't know much about men's haircut especially the terms they use. So I just go with what I know and my son looks so handsome, thanks to them. Very friendly to their customers. read more

The Best like Dj Khaled said "Dont Ever Play Yourself!" Big Boy himself the best tho! Make an appointment save yourself some time.

I've been here a few times with my nephew and boyfriend. They do an awesome job! Seems like they are really good with kid and although my nephew moved a bit just like every kids does they still managed to give him a good fresh cut! read more

Great spot to get a hair cut. The owner Big Boys is a great barber.
