Chapter 1 has been my 'GoTo' spot for a few years. It's challenging to find a solid barbershop. I've been to a number of spots in Oxnard and Ventura, but found myself returning to Chapter 1. I like their availability, and online booking through their website! It makes it easy to stay on point with my cuts. If your regular barber is not available, the team is always supportive of suggesting another barber at their location. It's no big deal or hard feelings. The environment is laid back, there is music playing, but it's not a club. You can chop it it and talk shop, but conversations are always respectable. If you walk into the space, someone will greet you and ask if you have an appointment or you're just walking in. Tony is the Troy Polamalu of the baber game, the Fabio of hair! If you can grow hair like that, you have to know a thing or two about it. It's always good vibes and conversation. He is a business owner that cares. I appreciate the work he does outside of the shop, and within the community. It's a win-win situation when you know supporting local business is trickling down to others in your area. read more

My 4 year old has sensory issues so we've been doing home haircuts, but I wanted to get him a big boy haircut for school. Alfredo was the best: incredibly patient, understanding, and kind. My son enjoyed the experience. We will definitely be back. Thank you Alfredo!! read more

Simply the best. Tony and his affiliated barbers are highly skilled, and not the typical mediocre to poor short term employee found in many establishments. Barbers take a careful inventory of what their clients would like, and then proceed. There are also additional services, such as beard trim, etc. Owner Tony is highly professional and experienced in the field. read more

One of the worst haircuts I've ever had. My girlfriend said it looked like they put a bowl on my head and started cutting. Really embarrassingly bad. Never again. read more

I highly encourage and recommend for you to make an appointment here to experience it for yourself. read more

Jr. has great customer service and does spectacular work. I definitely recommend this shop.

Just moved to Ventura from San Clemente last week. I used Yelp to find someone who could make me look less like Moses and more like the old bearded guys you see in ads for modern weddings. Skinny suits. Lined up beard. Tony had great reviews. The shop is located above Biker Bail Bonds. Perfect. Tony was outstanding. He was meticulous and would stop to ask if he was heading in the right direction. Both the haircut and the beard trim are the best that I have experienced in a very long time. Will happily become a loyal customer. read more

Best barber shop in Ventura hands down. Every time I go in Antonio remembers me and asks about how I've been.

Honestly Victor at Chapter 1 Barbershop gave my son a new confidence. He's had a tough year and I showed Vic the hairstyle my son wanted and he matched it exactly and better, I let him and my son talk and decide the style and my son wanted a lighting bolt and so my son got a lighting . Shop is very clean, brought my family as well and we each got cuts and mini facials. He was quick and courteous and really respectful and the shop is fun with the dart board and mini photo shoot after. My kids enjoyed going live and filming for him. I live in Port Hueneme and I will now be taking my son here for all his cuts. Thank you Victor and kids even got to meet the owner whom is really passionate about his work as well. Check them out you will not go anywhere else. read more

Vic gave a fantastic haircut. He was personable, friendly, professional and not only did he listen to me, he improved and enhanced what I asked him to do. Vic went far beyond my original request. Unfortunately, I was only passing through, and will have to drive 300+ miles to see Vic again...hmmm...it would definitely be worth it. read more

Got the best haircut I've ever gotten here. They are all very versatile and skilled but Tony is an absolute master!

Had a wedding to go to and they worked my man in so he looked fresh. Very nice place. Staff was very pleasant read more

A five star barbershop that is a wonderful testimony to what can result from a small private business. Victor was personable and adhered to my wishes closely. He took a good deal of time with extra attention to detail. Also special were the various oils and towel treatments he regularly applies. Highest recommendation. read more

Bonham gave my son a fabulous haircut, was patient with him, and was very accommodating to our schedule.

They accommodated me immediately as I walk-in.! Price is decent and the barber that attended to me did cut my hair as I want it.

If you are looking for a professional, knowledgeable and patient barber, Tony is your guy. During my haircut he went over how to achieve the style I want with a blow dryer and brush. He suggested products to use for my hair. He also feather razored my hair to tailor the cut to my goal of style. He did not take off a lot of hair like most barbers do but enough to make the cut look cleaned up and professional. The shop is extremely clean. You can also enjoy the view of the Ventura Hillside while you wait for your cut. Thank you Tony. read more

Victor is wonderful! My boys are very happy with their haircuts. We'll definitely be back.

Last minute haircut for my son while in town visiting and was lucky enough to score an appointment with Anthony. Despite my inability to spit out exactly what I was hoping for in a cut, he took the time to listen and explain what he was going to do. So happy with the result and the smile on my son's face speaks volumes. He made him very comfortable and made sure he was involved and liked it too. read more

It's alright. I stopped going because they stopped doing the blade finish. When I asked why, they said that the clippers do the same thing. Oh well--he's probably not wrong but it sort of felt like since they had me as a regular customer that they could stop caring maybe. All good, give it a try, you might like it especially if you like sports. read more

went with 7-8 inches of hair left with 0 on the sides and a fucked up jungle on top with them told that there was a special occasion the night of now nothing can be done nights ruined and next 3-4 months is a nightmare of looking ugly as hell read more

First time going to a different barber in over 5 years Antonio exceeded expectations even went the extra mile to share his knowledge about my hair type and how to properly style my hair step by step.

I have been taking my brother to Christy for his haircuts. And he has been so happy with how she takes care of him. He refuses to go any where else . Every one compliments his hair and beard!! read more

I went in looking like I'd been living in the woods for 5 years and walked out looking like Rico Suave. Everyone at the barbershop seems pretty cool. I go to Victor and he's a pro. I have a big beard that can be a pain to manage, but Victor knows what he's doing and makes it look good. There's a good vibe at this barbershop. Check 'em out! read more

I was searching for a barber to shave my head before I lose my hair to chemo. I have some driving restrictions so scheduling was difficult. Until I found Chapter 1's Victor Ortiz. He offered to come to my home the very next evening! He shaved my head (bald is beautiful) giving me a spa like treatment and my head looks great! Victor, you are a gift from God. I will recommend you and Chapter 1 Barbershop to everyone I know and meet. read more

The place is great and I love the vibe. I felt at home with the great conversation.

Bonham is an absolute rockstar! I was donating my hair and it had to be cut into sections. He really went above and beyond in cutting my hair exactly how it was instructed. Not only that but he already had the perfect style in mind for my hair. In addition to being super accommodating, he was wonderfully pleasant conversation as well. He got us in last minute and really took him time with pampering. It was an experience! read more
