I went to them for the first time yesterday. Very friendly staff. The haircut was exactly as I wanted it and relatively well priced. This will be my go to spot for hair cuts ! read more

Kenny and Helen are excellent barbers!! They've always given me a great haircut, and their prices are extremely reasonable. Today I rode my bike to the shop and when I arrived I was hot and my face was sweating. Out of the blue, they offered me a refrigerated water, and kindly provided a clean damp towel to help me cool off. They are wonderful people. If you're looking for a great experience, a friendly atmosphere, and to look GRET when you're sone, you've found the place. read more

Great small place that does walk ins only. Kenny understood the assignment and provided a great cut and beard trim. Even though they were a bit busy he provided time and attention to detail to give a great cut. read more

Cindy provided me a fantastic A+ quality cut, quickly, and efficiently. She fit me in at the end of the day and was very pleasant to work with. The shop is beautiful has a great view of passerby for all your people watching enjoyment. Highly recommend and I will be back soon! read more

Cindy is amazing with our 2 year old grandson ! He sat on Papa's lap and patiently watched him get a haircut then our grandson wanted one too. Cindy is so patient read more

This place is awesome! Walk ins welcome! All three of my kids desperately needed haircuts and they got nice and cleaned up! We had been on vacation for more than a month and this place was great! read more

See all

Great service the new owners are maintaining the Frontier barbershop from the past. Great Danville icon

It has been two months since my husband's last haircut with a major heart surgery in between. These people were great ... sweet, kind, careful and very competent. Kenny and Cindy. We watched them both work as we waited our turn in their cute shop. It was clear that these were returning, satisfied customers. Cindy cut my husband's very shaggy hair and beard and now he looks like a new man! Thank you, Cindy. You can add us to your list of regulars! Sincerely, Barbara and John read more

They are the best. Fast, friendly, and do an amazing job. I have them do my hair and my beard and every time it's perfect!

Cindy was awesome she was able to squeeze my husband and son in and they both looked amazing and they were both happy with the outcome.

These barbers are the best. super humble when I showed them a picture of what I wanted, something that great clips will gladly ignore. speaking of great clips, they are the reason why I went to frontier instead. Overall, great place to get a haircut, super nice barbers, cool little shop in the heart of downtown. Highly recommend. read more

Just got my haircut here today after almost a year of not being able to get a trim due to covid, and let me tell you they cut my hair to exactly how I like it. Not an easy feat to go from 5 inches of hair to a size 2 clipper on the sides but these guys nailed it! Cindy did a great job and was very understanding of what I wanted. Thank you so much frontier barbershop, I'll be back in 2 months. read more

Under new ownership by some of the lovely staff that used to be at Danville Supercuts. It's a very quaint space in the heart of Danville and both stylists do a meticulous job! It's a pleasure to find them and wish them success. Between my husband and my son, we will be there weekly-ish!!! See you soon! read more

Frontier Barber Shop - Under new ownership and it's a pleasure to support them. - Barbers Near Me - Danville, California

I've been going to Cindy (owner) since her days being an employee at Great Clips in Danville. She went out on her own and I followed because she does a fantastic job! She is a true professional, she gets it right every time and I've never had a bad cut. I highly recommend and for $18?????? That's the best deal in town...The shop only has 2 chairs so I call before and find out when she is available and come in accordingly. The shop is always clean, friendly and bright. Pandora music and a large flat screen make a cut pleasant if you don't want to talk. I've never called and not been able to get a cut. I've been a customer of hers for almost 10 years and I'm particular about who cuts my hair. I've recommended other to her because she is that good. read more

Bro's look no further! This barber shop is my favorite place to get a hair cut. The couple who owns the shop are very talented and always do a great job taking time to make sure your hair looks perfect. I've been coming here for over a year and have no plans to stop. Just come here I assure you they will do a 1000x better job than a "super-cuts" will. read more

First timer and went to get a haircut the week of July 4th, and I am so happy i did. Cindy was super nice and took all the required safety steps per Covid19 ordinances. She was a pleasant conversationalist and did not rush with my hair (I get nervous when other cutters do) and styled my hair a new way such that I wear it like that for months. My kids think I look younger too . I will be back as soon as the the city allows them to reopen. read more

I could write a tome about Frontier and why their the best barbershop in CCC but like the shop itself I'll keep right to business, what you get from Mike & Fred is a great, professional and straight-ahead haircut (beard trim too) with no BS! The place is old and small with only two chairs but heck there's only two barbers why would you need more chairs? They're efficient and to the point which for a haircut is what I like, if I want constant conversation and opinions I'll go to a bar or therapists! I looked for months for a good barbershop I'm so thankful for finding Frontier, thank you oh thank you Yelp I'm forever indebted to you. read more

Great little barber shop. Good prices. Good service. Get my beard trimmed and shaped here. Very happy.

Great place for men's haircuts. Quick and clean. During covid they followed county guidelines and closed when needed and are offering a very clean environment for haircuts now that they are open again. read more

From the two classic barber chairs to the smells of hair tonics and shaving cream, this old-style barbershop will bring you back to your younger days. They use a vacuum to clean you up after the haircut and give you a warm shave around the edges with a straight razor. If you like a haircut where you walk in, sit down, and don't feel obligated to keep a conversation going, you'll feel right at home here. Mike & Fred are the only two barbers, so it can get a little crowded on a Saturday morning. They do keep things moving quickly so the wait is not too long. On most weekdays (T-F) you can walk in and sit right down in the chair. Even if you have to wait, they've usually got a game or golf on the dusty TV. The walls and shelves of the small shop are crammed with old bumper stickers, ball caps, photos and nick-nacs of one kind or another, giving it a cool old feel. read more

Frontier Barber Shop - Barbers Near Me - Danville, California

Cindy's an amazing barber. She's been cutting my hair for over 3 years, and even though I go to school in LA now I still get my hair cut here every time I come home. She even gives me directions to give to my barbers down in socal. Overall, Frontier's one of the best barber shops in the area. Always clean and always friendly. I see all kinds of people pass by, young old and everyone in between, and they always get fresh cuts. Waits can be a bit long at times, so just make sure you call beforehand. Otherwise, hit this place up for a great haircut! read more

Like most guys post-Covid, I was desperate for a legit haircut. My brother and I traded turns with the clippers during the past few months with disastrous results. Enter Cindy at Frontier Barber Shop! The reviews here were rave, so I was quick to get over there last week. Danville is not convenient for me (I'm in San Leandro), but the drive was well worth it. Their little shop was buzzing, non-stop. The place met all the zany Covid sanitation requirements and Cindy sprayed disinfectant every time she switched guards or trimmers. Cindy is a true professional: she knows what she's doing, she's fast, she doesn't waste time with a bunch of jibber jabber, and the price was perfect. And at the same time, she really made me feel like a special customer, and that she was so grateful I came in for a try. I got a fade, which is nothing complex or unusual. She matched my San Leandro barber's work perfectly. I read the Yelp pretty regularly for reviews like the one I've just written, so you know now that Cindy at Frontier is where you want to go! Cheers! -Randy in San Leandro read more

Probably the best haircut I've ever received. Meticulous attention to detail. Super friendly service. What more could you ask for? Great old school barber shop vibe. David and Cindy are just really nice people. Highly recommend this barber shop! Probably the best in Contra Costa county!!! read more

Great experience! First time to a barber! Rick surpassed expectations. I will never go anywhere else until I move from Danville. The whole experience took about twenty minutes and cost $15. Worth a try if you are looking for a new barber or a better haircut. My hair has not looked this good after a normal haircut. read more

Frontier Barber Shop - Good all around cut! - Barbers Near Me - Danville, California

I'd recommend this barber for anyone looking for a new one! They're very friendly, and although I expected to get a bleh cut I got an awesome one! My barber was Cindy, and usually I have a bias towards male barbers, but she proved that wrong! I got a combover with 2 on the sides and back. She gave me a good fade and ended me looking nice and clean. I'll be coming back to this barber for sure. Cheap cut, great service. Only downside for me, though, was that there were only two seats, so I can imagine how crowded it might get. Also! They give you a nice towel massage after the cut so that felt nice. read more

I've been getting my hair cut at Frontier for the last two years. When I moved out to the East Bay, I was on the hunt for someone to take the place of my old barber (whom I had been seeing for over a decade). Well, after a long search, I finally found my way to Frontier. Cindy does amazing work - I have the utmost confidence that I can close my eyes and open them up at the of the cut to my hair looking even better I could imagine. Consistency and quality mixed with a competitive price and perfect customer service all make Frontier my go-to barber shop. read more

Cindy is awesome! I went in with a very vague description of what I wanted and she filled in the blanks instantly. She let me know how we needed to set the hair up to grow into the style I wanted, as well as how to style it. Prices are unbeatable, everyone is super friendly there. I've found my new go to barber shop. read more

There will be a memorial for him on Friday, Sept 26th at 3pm at the Veteran's Memorial Hall in Danville. Rest in peace, Fred.

There is one thing that is common between haircuts in any shop, country, or time period - Trust. Would Barry Gibb allow anyone to truss his golden locks of hair? Would Pablo Escobar allow anyone near his head with a pair of scissors? Would George Washington allow any peasant to powder his wig? The answer to all of those questions is a simple, no. So why should I, or anyone for that matter trust any stranger to come anywhere near my head with a pair of scissors, and a rough general idea of what my hair should look like for the next month? Well the simple answer to that is because of trust. I trusted the reviews about Frontier Barber Shop and decided to take a leap of faith to put my hand on their doorknob and walk through those doors. I was greeted immediately and was seated immediately by Kenny. Now while I hadn't had a haircut in the last two months, the monumental task didn't even seem to phase Kenny. No amount of gel could hold back the unkempt tangles of my thick, bushy Asian hair - and yet Kenny just went to work. Kenny didn't seem to be in a rush to finish, unlike some of ge other super or sports cut places. He took his time to make sure that I wouldn't be looking like a fresh Kim Jong Un after a trip to his local North Korean Barbershop. The task wasn't easy, yet Kenny was able to make a masterpiece out of a master-mess of hair. Will I trust Kenny to cut my hair again? Should you take a leap of faith onto the barber stool at Frontier Barbershop? Would Donald Trump be better off without the very unconvincing toupee? Yes. read more

100% recommended Kenny and Cindy are very nice people and do really good job too. I've been coming here for 4 months now and they never disappoint me every time I come. read more

I've been pretty satisfied with the haircuts I've gotten here. The service is good and the people are friendly. read more

Frontier Barber Shop - The most recent haircut I've gotten here. I was pretty happy with it. :) - Barbers Near Me - Danville, California

Not much to add. Moved to Tri-Valley a year ago and have experienced some HORRENDOUS haircuts. Decided to seek out a barbershop instead of a salon or franchise. Cindy took care of business and delivered the best cut I've had in 12 months. This is a no-frills shop, no shampoo, etc. Down and dirty GREAT haircut. Thanks! I'll be back! read more

Frontier Barber Shop - Barbers Near Me - Danville, California

Just got a late-June Covid cut and I feel like the service went from above average to numbers-focused. Churning haircuts out and not caring about the looks. Disappointed. read more

Got a straight shave & a hair cut...$50 including tip. Very few things get any better than a straight shave & the gentleman at the barber shop took his time to do it right. Came in at about 8:00 & got out at 9:30. Felt terrible for the people waiting....nah! Not really...I enjoyed every moment of it;) read more

Frontier Barber Shop - Straight shave & "stache styling" for Movember! - Barbers Near Me - Danville, California

Cindy and Ken are great. This is a quality spot to get a haircut and a steal at only $18. While most barbershops at this price point just shuttle people in and out as quickly as possible, Frontier takes their time and makes sure you're pleased with your cut and your experience. One thing I especially appreciate are Cindy's suggestions. While many people just ask for their standard cut, you can see Cindy cares and thinks about the cut by offering potential alternatives and suggestions before perfectly executing! Highly recommend. read more

I can't recommend this barber shop enough. Cindy and Kenny always do a great job and they never rush to to cut my hair. I've been going here for about 2 years now and have sent my friends here too. Great shop. This place has a lot of regulars so you know they do a good job. read more

I'm a 29 year olde male and I've been getting my hair cut here for about 6 months. I have a pretty basic style, short and tidy. I love the haircuts I get. Cindy has my hair down and it's extremely well priced. Would recommend to anyone. read more

Great, no-nonsense service without a lot of chatter. I love the fact that I can walk in, sit down in a chair, tell Mike or Fred that I need a haircut, discuss a few particulars then not have to say a word until it's time to pay. A good barber knows how to get the job done without asking too many questions and these guys are it! The straight-razor cleanup of your hairline is how it should be done too!! read more

After 20 years, my trusted go-to barber retired and I was desperate to find a perfect replacement. Based on Yelp reviews, I went to Cindy at Frontier Barber Shop for a haircut that my wife found just "amazing." That kind of compliment describes my whole experience with Cindy. She was unbelievably pleasant, accommodating and professional with her work. Really a rare individual to find in this day and age when it comes to customer service. I will be a regular from now on. read more

Frontier is an excellent barber shop. I got my haircut from Cindy, and she is an amazing person. She is really bright and understands what kind of style you want. I asked for a comb over fade, with a part, and now I get compliments from many people! For $18, a haircut from Frontier is more than worth it. read more
