I didn't end up actually visiting Elite Brea, but I called to ask about the cost of an infant haircut. The gentleman who answered (I didn't catch his name) was extremely friendly, helpful, and even offered alternative recommendations. Based on that level of customer service alone, I'd gladly consider coming in as a customer next time. read more

Top notch barber A1 been cutting my hair for 12 years official as they come his designs are legit

Had to come through and show some love for Elite Barber Shop and especially Morris who absolutely hooked up my son's hair before the school year starts! We've actually been to Morris once before, back in 2022, and even though we've been free-styling his hair since then, we knew it was time to get him looking right--and Morris delivered again. My son's hair had become locked over time, which is a style we love, but we wanted something fresh to kick off the school year. Morris gave him a locked Mohawk that looks amazing--my son loved it, and honestly, so did I! The whole experience was smooth--my son didn't flinch once. Morris was incredibly patient and made sure he was comfortable throughout. It's not just the cut (which was ), it's the vibe and the care he puts into his work that makes the difference. Elite Barber Shop is truly a staple for us when we want great service and a clean cut here in Brea. Highly recommend asking for Morris--you won't be disappointed. read more

We had to get our 7.5 month old a haircut because of medical reasons and we didn't want to do it ourselves. I called and they said children should be at least 3 years old but when I explained the situation they were more than accommodating and told us to come in for the haircut. We made the appointment for Sunday morning at 10 and the shop was open and ready for us so there was no waiting. E welcomed us and offered us a beverage right away. He listened to our concerned and didn't hesitate at all to help us with our needs. It was sad to see my boy's curls and long hair disappear but I'm glad I brought him to Elite to get it cut. E was gentle with my son and kept him engaged each step of the way. They both did a great job. I'm sure even without the medical reasons we'll come back for future haircuts. read more

Love this shop everyone is so friendly and have been for years , I've been going here for 3 years

Came to get my son a low taper fade. A1 is the best! Amazing service! Im happy with my result.

If you're looking for your own barber shop you can trust with your hair and confidence, this is the spot! I went from getting one hair cut every year to scheduling one every month. I used to not care how well kept my hair or beard was, a quick pass-over with a beard trimmer was sufficient. But AJ brought a new light to my eyes and a new sense of identity with the way the way he trimmed my beard and cut my hair. The experience is amazing, and I can't lie, with the 5 star treatment they give you here I've fallen asleep on the chair while they shave my beard only to wake up feeling fresh, clean and completely revitalized. I know I can trust this place with my life.... I wanted to go bald but AJ suggested a different hair style and boy... have I received compliments I never expected. read more

we walked in at Elite and we were greeted by Albert (A1) and he was very pleasant and told us that there was 1guy ahead of us and if we are ok to wait and we said we were ok, and when it was my son's turn, A1 worked his magic, and we were truly impressed, he did a really good job, my son knew exactly what he wanted and he got it, we will definitely come back and even tell people about A1 read more

Been here a couple of times in the past but I guess I didn't appreciate them as much as I did tonight!!!! Called at 330 and they took my two boys in to fix their botched hair cut from another "salon" in Brea that we went to just yesterday!!! Ugh. They took us in at 5 and Alfredo did an amazing job. Was gonna just wait it out for their to grow to go to a real barber shop but my boys couldn't bear another day lol Boys cut was $25 each and he even cleaned up one of my sons in unibrow!!! Nice little extra service!! Thank you again!! read more

Always on time and always a great cut! The barber shop is located in the shopping center right next to Pho Tay Bac. There is plenty of parking, never have to hassle and drive around looking for a spot, which is a BIG deal for me! :D I met Alfredo through Instagram and have been bringing my son to get his cuts from him for a while now. Always professional and very friendly. I am glad that now I have a barber that I send my son to when I need that perfect fade! Another plus... (not sure if every barber does this) ... but Andrew (my kid) decided to let his full beard grow out during the "Lockdown" and Alfredo cleans it up and leaves him looking sharp! I am not sure if walk-ins are welcome but appointments are easy to make! Five stars for the great service! Thank you for reading my review! read more

I was looking for a barber for my son, and found this place on Yelp. A lady had recently posted that Ezbai "E" had cut her son's hair recently, and it was just the style I was looking for. I'm so glad that I found him! Ezbai is kind, patient, and detailed with my little one. The shop always offers drinks and has music playing. Great haircuts and good vibes! Thanks, E and Elite! read more

I have a curly haired child that I HAVE to bring to this shop and specifically ask for Ezbai. I've been to so many different barbers for my son, and ever since we came here, he won't get his hair cut by anyone else. read more

Its crunch time. 7:12. Most barbers are closed and I need to choose between one that closes at 7:30 and this one but dont worry they're open till 9 right? NOPE! UNLESS THEY MEANT 9AM IN WHICH CASE THAT'S MY BAD! read more

Had a 4:00 appointment with Ezbai but he just made me wait because another customer was running late. What is the point of making an appointment if you are still going to have to wait. I wouldn't recommend this place unless you don't mind waiting with an appointment. read more

My son tried this place out for the first time... and last. I'm sorry but the end result was mediocre ...don't know if the guy who cut his hair is new at it but definitely not going back again. My son mentioned he felt like the guy was just trying to get out the chair. If you don't enjoy what you do then maybe change careers.... read more

"E" is the greatest. I have taken my son to a few barber shop around the area before and has not liked the atmosphere. "E" , aside of being a talented barber has incredible patience with my son and engages with him thru-ought his hair cut to make him feel comfortable. My son has never liked getting hair cuts and now is excited to make his appointments. read more

They do a great job doing fades! Awesome atmosphere. Will definitely come back again. Cash only

Horrible horrible experience. Ezbai might just be the most stubborn childish person I have ever encountered. This was my first time at this barber shop, I booked an appointment on their website for Sunday 11am. I chose Ezbai as my barber and was then presented with options of what service I wanted. I chose the $35 haircut. I requested a six on the sides, rounded in the back, and that I was happy with the length on top and just wanted it evened out. He asked if I wanted boxed sideburn which I said sure. Ezbai proceeds to spend 35 minutes cutting the side of my head. He boxes my sideburns and cuts off a bit of my beard to do so, which I guess was fault for not telling him otherwise. He rounds out the back of my head and cuts it shorter than it was, which now looks horrible and awkward. The next 10 minutes he cuts the hair on top way too short and for whatever reason leaves the hair in front way longer than in the back. After cutting my hair he rinses it, shampoos it, dries it, and places a hot towel on my face. All of this confused me because I thought it was just going to be a simple haircut. He finishes and tells me the cut is $50. I confront him and tell him the website said it was $35 and he claims that he's been trying to fix the issue for the past 2 YEARS! He said for his service it's $50 on Sundays and $40 the rest of the week. I'm not happy about the cut and now he says it's way more expensive than I initially thought. I figure it's neither my fault nor his for this miscommunication and provide the solution of paying $40 instead of $50. Ezbai is extremely stubborn and demands $50. I argued with him and told him it's not my fault neither his that the website is outdated which is why I believe $40 is fair for the both of us. But he won't accept. Apparently nobody else has had this issue before in the 2 years he's been trying to "fix" this problem. I paid $50 for a cut I thought was going to be $35. Ezbai butchered my hair. DO NOT COME TO THIS BARBER SHOP AND DO NOT GET YOUR HAIR CUT BY EZBAI! Unless you want to get scammed for your money, then by all means be my guest but I know this barbershop should not be deserving of all these high reviews and definitely should be cutting people's hair. read more

I was a walk-in at Elite Barber, the schedule was already full but Rahim sat me down and got me in when his appointment fell through. -The Haircut: Rahim did a great job cutting my hair. He asked me what I wanted and gave me exactly that (but better). -The Service: Rahim was not only professional, he was very friendly and easy to talk to. Went in looking for a haircut and got that, plus a good time/conversation I'll definitely be back read more

A1 coming through with the clean cut. Good vibe with the sports in the background. Coming back soon!

The first time I made an appointment for my husband, it was with whoever was free. While we were there, a barber named Alfredo talked to us and I mentioned that I like his wristband that says "God's got this". He ended up going to his car to get 2 extra he had & gave them to us. My husband is wheelchair bound and has ALS, so it takes some extra help to get him into a chair & everything. After that one appointment, I made my husband's next appointment with Alfredo. Not only does he do a great job, but he's kind, compassionate & even texts my husband to check on how he's doing. He hustled out to our car to help me get him into his wheelchair and lifts him into the barber chair. He doesn't make my husband feel uncomfortable or different because of his current limitations, but treats him like one of the guys as he works on him. Alfredo is simply the best in so many ways and has left a lasting impression on us over a year later as we continue to schedule with him... we also still wear those wristbands he gave us to this day. read more

This barbershop lives up to the name "Elite." Outstanding customer service and quality haircuts. Doesn't matter which barber you choose, these guys deliver nothing short of perfection.

I needed a barbershop on my route to work or on my way home. So what does one do, jump on FB and ask his friends for recommendations for a barber. Someone recommended this place, but I was also given a highly recommended place in Santa Ana, so I went there for a few months. After having to drive regularly to Santa Ana, I needed the convenience of a barber on my route. So I finally took the flying leap and zipped onto Elite on my way home. I called to see if it would be too late to come over, but they were still inviting and said that they only have one walk-in waiting. I got there about 25-minutes before closing and they were still happy to take me in. It took a few before they started my cut, but Johnny called me over worked his magic. Told him what I wanted, he asked a few questions, and it was a perfect cut. Just the way I like it! Awesome job for the first try, especially when I'm really picky about how my hair is cut. The cut was much cheaper than what I paid in Santa Ana. There's an ATM in the shop too, for fools like me that don't have the time to grab some cash from their bank beforehand. If I recall, it's a $2.50 fee to use the ATM. I'm lucky to have a bank that reimburses up to $15 a month on ATM fees, so it worked out in my favor still. Definitely will be coming back, but making sure I schedule an appointment with Johnny next time. read more

Got cut by Ezbai and he was amazing! Full service from start to finish, and gave a very clean fade and cut. Followed exactly what I had explained. Was new to the area before going to him, but will definitely be going back read more

Went to this barbershop this morning. I didn't have an appointment, but the young man at the desk made it happen. They got me right in. I was given Ezabi and he made me feel human again. We spoke of the last time I received a haircut, and why I did not return. They only took cash and didn't tell me, so I had to use their own ATM. This time I had to go to the ATM at the tabacco shop. When "E" told me it was $65, I said how much, and he repeated $65. I was shocked to tell you the truth. Yes, he did trim my moustache and goatee, put a warn towel on my face, trimmed my eyebrows. He did ask if I wanted him to do it, except the towel, and never mentioned it would cost me $30 extra. His service was great, but it would have been nice to have known the cost. And NO, I did not see the prices posted. Wow, I just didn't see $65 coming. I have learned my lesson. read more
