    Here is the screenshot of the lie that I never showed up to justify him stealing $23.63. You know who you are.

    ***UPDATE*** as you all can see SLIM P. Does not care anything about his customers based on his reply. No accountability. I was 2 minutes late and somehow you skip 2 scheduled appointments?! Yet you had someone in the chair before my 11am scheduled appointment. YOU NEVER GAVE MY SON A FREE HAIRCUT! I can count on one hand how often we came for your services and paid every single time through the Booksy app! It's good to know how you feel about your customers who to you are nothing and easily replaceable. Good luck with that. 9/17/23 It was all good about a week ago!! Unfortunately I have to write a negative review about a brother I thought was an ethical human being. This was my fourth visit to this establishment and today I realized I will not return. Ever. The old saying when someone shows you who they are believe them. I scheduled an 11am appt for my son and I to have our cuts today. I showed up at 11:02am and waited as someone was already in the chair with his cut halfway done and my family and I decided to just wait. After waiting nearly half an hour I was then told by the barber that I was late and my haircut was skipped. Really??! 30 minutes later you mention I was 2 minutes late so my cut was skipped?! Cool. I take that on the chin. So then he says I can only do one of the cuts that were scheduled and "pre-paid" for. I said ok I'll get my cut and my son will wait until another time to get his. He then says I can do your sons but not yours as mine was a 20 minute cut and my sons was a 15 minute cut. I then say "ok" you can cut my sons hair I'll figure it out. Then his 11:30am "appt" walks through and he turns and says I can't do your sons cut now. make it make sense! At this point I'm frustrated and confused as what he was saying made no sense at all. I let him know ok I will look for another time later today. He says he's booked up. I ask him because at this point he needs to understand what he sounds like. I ask him so if I'm 2 minutes late my cut gets cancelled ok cool but now both haircuts are cancelled?! He mentions the guy that was in the chair when I walked in at 11:02am for my 11am appt was a walk-in. Which is how I got skipped and now I can get a cut and my son can't get a cut. Completely unprofessional and unethical. The right way he should've handled the situation was to say "I apologize. There was a walk in that came in before your scheduled appt and I decided to take his cut. I take full responsibility and I will make sure I take care of you and your some to honor your appt and time spent waiting". I guess that's too much like right. To top it off I scheduled the cut through booksy and was charged a prepayment fee prior to getting the cuts. I asked that he cancel the appt so I could get a refund. He did not and then entered in the booksy site as a "no show" meaning I never came at 11:02am waited 30 minutes just to get jerked around. How is that a no show?! A liar and a thief go hand and hand. I will deal with the bank regarding the charges not a big issue. What a waste of time and on top of that to steal money and lie about me being late shows me what type of person and business I was dealing with. Please see attached for the no show. You lost one.

    I Love the atmosphere between it being a barber and hair shop. My nephew was taken in immediately by the lady barber. She was very welcoming and nice. She was very patient with my "ants in his pants" dramatic nephew LOL. When trying a new barber I always get him an even all around cut to be on the safe side and she did GREAT!! On Saturday it's walk in only and weedays appts. It was extremely reasonable. THANKS JAMI

    My baby boy after I braided it. Cut by the lovely Ms. BARBERETTE.

    I am so so happy I found Ms. Barbarette. We spoke previously and her voice was already angellic. She gave me her cell and we conversed about my 7 year old. She told me to try and make an appt as she wpuld be able to be more attntive but baby boys been needing one bad so we had games today my daughter and son. Her game was over at 4:30. Got to Ms. Barbarette around 4:50. We waited and then she politely came and spoke with and took my papi to the chair. He didnt flinch he wasnt crying SHE WAS FIRE ! I paid her extra cause I knew she wanted to leave by 5:30 but she took her time and hooked us up. THANKS MS. BARBARETTE. CUSTOMER 4 LIFE.

    First time here after reading the good reviews and I must say it won't be the last. Walked in…read morenervous and was immediately greeted by Mario and I felt welcomed from the Jump. I made my appointment with Johnny for 10:30 am. The Vibe was very chill and relaxing in the shop. The music was dope and everyone in the shop was cool. Johnny was on time with the haircut. He asked me what I wanted and began doing his thing. He was very friendly and attentive and very detailed. He asked questions to make sure I got the cut I was looking forward. He was all done within the hour. It was definitely worth the $40 plus tip I paid for. It's always a bit hard to find the right barber in LA but I must say I found one here in Lawndale, CA of all places. It was real easy to use Booksy to book my appointment through their Instagram account. I'll be back to this spot soon. I highly recommend SB Shave Company with my boi Johnny or any of the dudes here. Just book it early because the parking is a bit limited.

Seems to be the best way to ensure a quality cut. Plenty of parking in the shopping center. There's a bathroom and lounge area while you wait. Prices are fair and competitive for a barbershop. I love that I'm treated with respect and I enjoy coming in for my haircut. Recently we've I've been bringing in my little toddler for a cut and he is not easy to handle, he's a heavy crier but Mario takes his time and is completely understanding.

The cuts are always on point, the attention to detail is unmatched, and he genuinely takes pride in his work. What sets Jonathan apart isn't just the haircut, it's the whole experience. Every appointment feels more like catching up with a good friend than sitting in a barber chair. The conversations are always interesting, informative, and somehow I end up leaving with both a fresh cut and something new to think about. One thing I appreciate is that he never rushes the process. He takes the time to make sure everything is exactly right, and it shows in the final result. Consistency is hard to find these days, but after years of going to him, I can honestly say I've never left disappointed. The only downside is my wallet wishes I needed fewer haircuts. If I had more money, I'd probably be in the chair every week just for the cut and the conversation. If you're looking for a barber who's skilled, professional, personable, and genuinely cares about his clients, Jonathan is the guy. Highly recommend.
