If you wanna wait hours for someone's homeboy to come and take your spot or you wanna wait for someone to take 10 smoke breaks while talking with the whole neighborhood sure go waist a day and be social. But if you're a mom with boys and on the go, don't bother read more

No stars was not an option. My son went in For haircut and was told the barber didn't have his scissors to complete the job shortlyafter starting to cut my sons hair. Unfortunately he did a half ass job. Barely tapered the side of his head and proceeded not to finish his hair due to having no scissors. But the guy still took his 35 bucks. Terrible to treat clients this way. I do not recommend unless you want to hang around convicts that take smoke breaks in between cutting your hair. read more

Yeah this place messed my hair up hella bad unfortunately. The Barber didn't follow directions at all and the haircut was still $40 dollars. I regret even giving this person the opportunity to cut my hair and I personally do not recommend this place at all. Please don't make the same mistake I did. And I am a person who is not a random ass complainer but was discouraged by this read more

I first went in back in July and was helped by Shorty. I asked for a touch-up on my low fade and he did an okay job. So a month later I go in for the same thing but this time I also asked Shorty to take a little off the top of my afro and do a little shape-up. Throughout the cut, I was wondering when he would pick out my hair. Turns out Shorty didn't have a hair pick and kept it to himself instead of asking me to borrow mine for the cut. He does the shape up anyways then tells me he's done and hands me the mirror. I immediately picked my hair out to see the true shape and it was unsurprisingly lopsided as hell. So he had to do the shape up all over again this time using my hair pick which meant he had to take even more hair off. I initially went in for a simple low fade and touch-up but ended up having 5 months of hair growth cut off because Shorty didn't carry a hair pick. The shop itself is also grimy as fuck. The place smells like weed smoke with blunt doobies just out in the open on various counters, everything looks disorganized, barbers sitting around while there are trash cans overflowing, broken cabinets with nails sticking out, etc. This place has gone to complete shit since the last time I visited almost 10 years ago. Never going back. read more

Shorty's Barber Shop - Barbers Near Me - Sacramento, California

I will not recommend this place. I dnt know if it was just that one barber or all, but we had a bad experience it bieng our first time there. The guy left my sons hair line really uneven and he had the nerve to blame my son because he moved his eyebrows. Smh. He took so long on the hair line that i had to tell him to stop and that was enough, if not my sons hair line wouldve been even worse and way far back. His fade came out choppy. Took extra long, and on top of all that charged $40 for a kids hair cut! I cant beleave that. He knew he messed up my sons hair and even said sorry but still charged full amount. Not going to this place ever again. The only good thing i can say is that they were friendly. Never again will i go there. read more

All i have to say is this place fell off, it sucks now. It's always a long wait if you're not there early. The last time i went there my hair line got pushed back. I basically paid for my hair to be messed up. Some of the barbers there don't even cut that good to be charging $20+. Try going yourself and maybe you'll have a better experience than me. read more

We came here to get my BFs hair fixed after "Kent's" on fruit ridge Fed his hair up ( I thought he was going to kill the guy that messed his hair up , so he made a quick call and got in ASAP they fixed his hair super nice and we were in and out . I'll be bringing my son back soon . read more

Shorty's Barber Shop - Jrs hair cut looks very nice and no Asians got killed in the process THANK YOU GUYS ! - Barbers Near Me - Sacramento, California

ZERO STARS. Brought my little brothers here, they messed up their hair lines and didn't even cut their hair how I showed them and also were talking VERY INAPPROPRIATELY not caring that children were in the room. Some barbers would cut a customers hair, stop right in the middle of it and walk around the shop as if there isn't other customers waiting. This is the second time I've took them here, each time was a HORRIBLE experience!! read more

When u bring in your kids n the barber says oh they look wild wtf n follows that with I don't do kids hair well u should of started with that . Needless to say never again will I go there. read more

I been going to this barbershop for more then 10 years now. George and Shorty some of the best barbers and the prices are very reasonable. All these people leaving all these negative comments saying there's a lot of cursing and long wait etc. 1 it's a mans barbershop so men will be men. Second if it's a long wait that means there's a lot of ppl so clearly ppl like coming here to get there haircut. And if you didn't like the atmosphere should of walked out and went to great clips. There's hundreds of barbershops in Sacramento. This is a neighborhood barbershop not a book club. So if little Trevor can't take a joke and gets his feelings hurt then you should of went to a salon. Don't have mommy write a bad review to assassinate the character of this place. read more

Very uncomfortable situation. Was waiting to get my haircut until I was told by the barber that he wasn't dealing with the darks today. (Me being African American took that exactly how It was presented to me.) long story short...save yourself the headache and find somewhere else!!! This place is filled will racist thugs!! read more

I bring my son here often. We have been coming since he was 3, he is now 6, and he loves to hear himself talk! Each time we come he has some crazy idea in mind for a design on his head, and some how these guys are able to deliver every time. Not to mention they dont seem to mind his constantly nosey questions! read more

See all

So much talent in this barbershop. Highly recommend. They take their time and don't cut any corners. Good vibes all around. Keep doing good work y'all! My 90 year old grandfather comes in and they keep him looking fresh too. 5 stars! read more

Great haircuts, real talk, funny characters what more do u need?

This is the only place that I go to when I need a haircut. Best fades in town. Great barbers. There's always a good conversation or banter between the barbers going on too so you get good entertainment while you wait. On top of everything, the price is great too. Honestly, this place can't be beat. read more

I have been going to this barbershop since i was a kid. All the barbers are definitely talented. I personally can't recommend this place enough. If you want a quality, fair haircut then go this place. I recommend George. He is the best of the best. read more

How can you give a barber shop five stars when they did a s***** job on my grandson they also cut him more than once so I am giving them 0 Stars be careful they do not even have a number where you can call them I will be calling the Better Business Bureau tomorrow. The only reason I rated it one star is because I couldn't continue or post until I did but they deserve 0 Stars. Zero..... read more

Quality of the haircut was good. The barber was very friendly and that is why I'm giving the shop a star. He was great, and I wish I got his name. Younger guy with a ponytail. But everyone else in that place doesn't need to be working there. Atmosphere was horrible. Yelling, cussing, rude to the clients. So unprofessional. read more

This is a nice, tight barber shop with down to earth and pleasant barbers. My 6-year old son had one of his best cuts here, complete with a nice 'flash' design in his hair. My cut was tight and professional. The guys were patient with the kids and place is well taken care of for 12 years in the biz...and they loooove their Pacino! Highly recommend! read more

Great fades and cuts, the wait is definitely worth it, Lee George, and Joe do fantastic jobs, I'm sure everyone else does too, just haven't had them fade me up yet. Been going there for almost 4 yrs now read more
