    Great cut
    Rocky R.

    Traveling from SD needing a cut and was lucky to be near HRCS. First walk in for the day and met the scooter master himself, Pony. Great vibe and even better cut. Definitely coming back when we come to visit daughter going to SAC State.

    Great Decor.

    This place needs no review. This place is amazing. Would highly recommend. I have been coming here for six years. Great place for all ages. Also great conversations. And positive vibes.

    Frontage.

    I get cuts almost always from barbers. I found this shop en route to my regular shop and thought I'd try it out. Excellent cut. He used scissors and a electric shaver to make me look crisp and clean. I'm going back in a few weeks for sure. If you're into vintage cars, San Francisco, San Diego, and or rat rods, he can talk your lingo.

    Meghan did a great job!

    Okay, I waited a couple of days before actually posting my experience at Hot Rod's. I was hopeful because there were actual flat top photos in their Yelp identity. Good flat tops. I had an unanticipated day off in town and decided to try ANOTHER new barber. Meghan was waiting for her first cut of the day when I walked in, and I apprehensively asked if she could cut a flat top. As much as I tout not judging a book... We all have had experience that lead us down the judgy path. She confidently let me know she could do the cut, then put me.in her chair and asked a LOT of questions. I knew immediately that a) I was a jerk for silently questioning her ability, and b) this could be one of the best cuts I have gotten in years. She proved me right on both counts. We had a nice chat about the attitudes and actions (both covert and overt) she faces by chosing to work her art in a traditional barber shop. Furthermore, my haircut is fantastic. She left me ready to do battle on the road when I am on a pretty important business trip next week. I am adding photos in a few.

    Hotrod was awesome with my 12 year old son, and spent extra time walking him through the exact cut he wanted. We will definitely be back!

The environment is clean and friendly, and on a beautiful day like today they opened up the big shop doors to let some fresh air in. I needed a medium haircut and Tracy helped me out and did a wonderful job listening to my style and sensory needs, the entire experience was relaxing and supportive, AND I got an amazing haircut! She showed me some different products for my hair and was very attentive to making sure I walked out looking great. I booked another appointment before I left, and I am honestly already excited for it

Booking, canceling, and changing appointments are so easy--all online. The barbers/stylists are quite the mix. Some are permanent fixtures, while others come and go like any business. I recently found a new barber here, HENRY. He is phenomenal. Although I am nearly bald, I get a h/c about every 2 weeks, and I don't mind paying full price, given Henry's superb attention to detail. He makes me feel like I've had a spa day makeover! While other guys just buzzed my head and used a trimmer on the back (stylists can't use a straight razor, I've learned), Henry is an experienced, pro barber. He attends to the littlest of hairs, examining every angle of my head. He attends to my ears, brow, skin (always moisturizes my scalp), and uses a razor to make the neckline stellar. He wraps it up with a light aftershave thing that leaves me feeling refreshed! It's the details that set apart a good haircut from a truly exceptional one. Plus, did I mention what a great guy he is? Having lived abroad, being from the Midwest, and being college-educated, he's a joy to talk to. Suggestions: The place could use a makeover. The once "cool" graphic (kind of wallpaper) flooding the wall is dated, and the bathroom needs a remodel. Nonetheless, JBG remains my go-to. Check it out!

Depression and a deep level of social anxiety had silenced the part of me that once took joy in the art of self-care and self-expression. Caring for my appearance felt too self indulgent, even pointless. Because of this, my hair has sat neglected, mullet-shaped, and directionless and quickly became a symbol of how disconnected I'd become from myself. I didn't know what I wanted when I sat in her chair because I hadn't felt allowed to want anything in a long time. But, Audrey met me there--with some compassion, a lot of patience, and a level of attentiveness I didn't know barbers actually gave without being a lifetime client. She asked about my history with my hair, how I've felt in it, when I've felt most like myself with it. She actually listened like it mattered. And somehow, from my fumbling socially awkward quiet answers, she miraculously shaped something that felt not just flattering, but also true to me. The cut was perfect, but it was more than that. It was the first moment in a long time where I felt seen and gently reintroduced to myself. Audrey didn't just restore my hair today, she helped restore a sense of agency I thought I'd lost. She's not just a barber. She's an artist, a guide, and for me, a quiet turning point. I'll be back--and if you're searching for more than a cut, you should go, too.

If he weren't so popular, I'd get my haircut more frequently. The atmosphere in here is also really something. It's friendly and welcoming, with a bit of edge. Conversation sometimes encompasses the whole place. Dare I say the owner has created a community center. Well done team!

To me, that speaks to high quality service that she provides. I have short / medium length asian hair. I get a combover and high quality fade here. Aly has made several suggestions to my cut that I've adapted, which I really appreciate about her. In terms of vibe, it's a pretty standard set up. Bunch of seats. Doesn't lean into the upscale or modern aesthetic, but not that cookie cutter feel by any means. Very eclectic on the inside. Definitely appeals to early 90s kid and to no surprise given that the average barber seems to be in the 30s to early 40s. They always have a throwback movie or show playing, or baseball. This is a great spot for anyone looking. I rec'd Aly, but the general sense is that everyone is elite here.
