customer service worse than the haircuts. Staff was insanely rude and disrespectful. Such a joke

Professional experience, easy to schedule, friendly service. Raffi is great at his craft.

By far one of the best cuts I've had!! Finally found someone that truly knows how to actually cut and style men's hair to match their style. I will definitely be a regular from now on! read more

I've been to barbers and coiffeurs (as they say in French) across the world. Raffi was meticulous and caring, skillful and precise. He gave me a 10/10 haircut last minute at the end of the night because I needed to spruce up for a wedding the following day. It wasn't just a haircut, it was a pleasant experience with an authentic human dedicated to their craft. He took a customer at the end of a long week and had to cut off a small dog's amount of hair to make me look clean and fresh. Highly recommended, especially in the area -- go out of your way if you must. read more

The cut Raffi gave me was one of, if not the very best cut I've ever had. You can tell he takes great pride in his work just like a great barber should. In LA you receive poor haircuts from many places. NEVER at Raffi D. It's the one barber that I can always rely on. Extremely professional and you can tell he really respects the art. What I also love about this place is the awesome membership packages they offer. I got myself the Executive membership that gets me a cut plus beard trim once a week at a very reasonable price. In the end I highly recommend this spot to anyone in need of a cut or facial hair grooming. Simply can't ask for a better barber. read more

Raffi truly is a craftsman!! 2 Thumbs up to you my friend. From easy parking in the rear which is Free to a clean and welcoming lounge. Raffi takes the extra time to go the extra mile to make sure the client gets what he or she wants. Thanks again Raffi!! read more

Studio 91 by Raffi - The Amazing aftermath!! Cheers Raffi. - Barbers Near Me - Pasadena, California

I've been a customer for a few years now and this yelp review is well deserved. I never thought I'd go to a men's hair studio to get a hair cut, but life takes its twists and turns. I ended up here on a whim a one day when my hair stylist couldn't book me. I needed an emergency blow dry, and Raffi took me in the same day. The salon itself is very private and comfortable. The TV is always on and the great thing about Raffi is, he's the only one working there. You get his full undivided attention-- always! He caters to your needs and does an excellent, thorough job. Not only that, but I feel like I have made a friend. He's so personable. His prices are very reasonable. I have nothing but good things to say. He has also given me a few hair cuts and I've been very satisfied with the results. If you want a no frills hair service, look no further. Raffi is your man! read more

I don't like making a whole big deal out of getting my hair cut. Raffi doesn't make a whole big deal out of it, either. He's a one-man operation on the 2nd floor with just one chair. So you're not sitting alongside a bunch of other people watching you get your hair cut. I like that. It's not that there's anything secret to my haircut, but a man ought to be able to get his hair cut without an audience. I like to look good, and I know a good haircut is a part of that, but I don't like a whole lot of pampering and preening and junk in my hair. I'm not the kind of man who's going tol stand in front of the mirror with a blow dryer for half an hour every morning. If keeping up a haircut is going to take more than shampoo, conditioner, a comb and a brush, it's not my kind of a haircut. I gave Raffi my haircut manifesto, and he gave me exactly what I asked for. My hair looks good, and all I need in the morning is a towel, a comb and a brush. He listened to what I wanted, and cut my hair accordingly: he gave me what I wanted, not what he wanted. I've had some haircut experiences that didn't turn out as well. A simple haircut is probably a lot harder to do than a fancy one. So, if you want to spend more than 60 seconds doing your hair in the morning, Raffi is probably going to be your man too. He's a good guy and he can carry on an intelligent conversation about baseball. I enjoyed talking to him for the half an hour I was in his chair. Parking's easy, prices are reasonable, and I know where I'm going next time I'm up for a haircut. read more

Raffi is the best barber I have ever been to in my life. True master of his craft. I can't picture my hair being cut by anyone else. So lucky to have been referred to him by a friend. read more

In a word: amazing. Raffi fit me into a same-day appointment and was actually ready when I got there. I love the hair cut, and I certainly appreciated the small talk. The place is a bit hard to find, and isn't visible while driving. read more

I was in Pasadena for the day and a good haircut was long over-due. Getting a good cut in a trendy area can be a death blow, especially for a man with modest tastes. We found Raffi D recommended highly here on Yelp of course and we stand by this community. Raffi was very accommodating and really made it a satisfying experience. Raffi operates out of an upper-level unit, similar to an contemporary office suite. Because of this, it is very comfortable and one needn't worry about anyone else but one's self and one's cutter. This also means unequaled attention. Finally, he extended the 25% off discount which essentially made the cut less than two cuts at Supercuts! Raffi was very inquisitive as to what was wanted and needed, and he cut the same way too, very giving and receptive to feedback and concerns. I tipped well needless to say. Speaking from a young man's perspective, Raffi impressed and deserves the business. read more

I actually found Raffi by yelp and I had to see what all the yelp was about and i thought he superceded all expectations..Raffi is the kind of guy you just don't meet everyday..ladies i have long hair, simple cut and i was happy...the men def. all need to see Raffi..he had a few customers there who couldn't say enough good things about him....i opened this yelp account to write this review...check him out, see for yourself...he's going places p.s. salon feels like being at a good friend's place, hope you enjoy too read more

Raffi is the man. I just moved to Pasadena and haven't had a cut in too long. He was the only Salon willing to take me on such short notice. His place is nice, quiet & in a great location. read more

I was in kind of a rush and needed a quick haircut. I met Raffi through a friend and he was able to help me out right away. Awesome haircut! Very fair and quick too.. Thanks Raffi, I'll definitely be coming back.. read more

Raffi D is one of the best kept secrets in Pasadena, I swear. I've been going to this guy on-and-off for years, and believe me, every time I strayed, I regretted it -- and inevitably came back to him for the fix. Well, I'm not straying any more! If you're looking for a stylist who: 1) is an experienced and capable professional, 2) offers a reasonably priced menu, 3) can translate even the most vague and/or overly-ambitious hair-request into a cut that's actually attractive on you, and 4) provides friendly customer service ...then you have to give this guy a try, especially if you live in the area. It's basically like hanging out at a friend-of-a-friend's who just happens to be a pro hair stylist. That's been my typical Raffi D experience over the years. Yes, the space is a little hard to find but there's free parking in the back and if you get lost, a quick phone call to Raffi for directions will sort you out. read more

Raffi D is the man. He's current on all styles, I've never been disappointed leaving here. I started out getting Eurohawk styles which I heard Raffi specialized in, and lately I've been doing the David Lynch style (shaved sides and back, top to the sides) and he's been knocking it out of the park. Good guy, won't disappoint you. read more

Gentlemen, if you are looking for a new hairstylist to go to - Look no further! because Raffi is it! No more showing up at the shop, but then having to wait. The previous place i would go to, i would call ahead, only to be made to wait because of the line of people ahead. And then only to be rushed out of the chair so that they can rush the next person. First off, Raffi's booking system is great. It assures your time in advance (He will send you a text message confirming your appointment). There is plenty of parking outside, which is an absolute plus! Second, his shop is simple, but exactly what you need/want. No big waiting room with like 15 other people. Thanks to his booking system, there will be very few people (Or none at all!). Me personally, I cannot stand when there are a bunch of ppl next, watching/staring at you because they are getting impatient. Located in pasadena, his shop is on the 2nd floor. When you enter, he has a small waiting area (Again, me personally- I don't want to be waiting around with 10+ pp). Then in the next room is where he works his magic- in 1 chair! That's right, you heard me- one chair. no other stylists, no other people talking, no distractions. Which means the attention is focused on you and your needs! Lastly, and this is the most important part - Raffi listens! no more second guessing or awkward conversations with a stylist that doesn't listen to your requests or just doesn't take the time to listen. If you tell Raffi exactly what you want, then he will do exactly that.I walked out of his shop with the best haircut i've had in years! No more walking out unsatisfied or "eh, it's good enough...". Raffi cut my hair EXACTLY the way i wanted it. and he did not rush me! Amazing! No more going to those cookie cutter barbershops for me. It's Raffi D's all the way from now on! Pros: booking system assures your appointment time dedicated attention to what you want done no rush service plenty of parking Cons: none! PS: Hey Raffi- you were right! The Thai food restaurant downstairs does have good noodles lol! : ) read more

My husband always looks fresh and clean after leaving this hair salon! Love the place

I sent my dad here years ago to get his hair cut and I love how the owner takes care of him like it's his own dad. Everyone we know young and old goes to him now...definitely the best! Reasonable prices and great service!!! Two thumbs up! read more

I wont go anywhere else. You tell Raffi how you want your hair and he like sees the picture inside of your head and he does your hair exactly how you pictured it. Weird! He's awesome!!! Super talented guy. You should see how he works the scissors... Any who... He's fricken cool!!! I tell all my friends about Raffi! They all come out impressed. read more

Raffi is a class act, professional, intelligent, fun, and very agreeable. You would fail miserably, in your attempt to find a finer individual to take care of your grooming necessities. He's the best. read more

Raffi D used to cut hair at Beverly Hills Salon. You get same quality of hair cut with 1/3 of Beverly Hills price . The Best . If Raffi is your stylist, you're winning read more

Everyone knows you have to have a fresh hair cut to impress (especially in LA). I've gone through 6 stylists in the last year and finally landed on one I can say is here to stay. The shop has a great vibe and makes you feel right at home. Had a great conversation with Raffi and I'm looking forward to coming back. The best part about the place (obviously) was how my hair looked. I walked out of this place with my confidence through the roof. I'll be recommending this place to all my friends and family. read more

Raffi D's has cut my hair with several styles over time: professional, sharp, very stylish, always takes his time, always accommodating to make appointments, equivalent cut to a professional salon that is 2-3 times the price. Highly recommend. read more

Plain and simple: Raffi knows how you want your hair cut, even if you don't. Raffi found a way to make me look good with short, professional hair, something barbers and stylists have failed to do my whole life. read more

Went for the first time and this guy knows how cut and style! Highly will recommend and he has earned a customer! Thank you read more

Not only is Raffi talented at cutting hair, but he also really cares for each individual customer. Today was my first time visiting and I got great cut. read more

Raffi D is a quiet place where you get great service for a great price. Raffi is very customer oriented, and I always enjoy an espresso while getting my hair cut. Cheers! read more

I have been getting my haircut at Raffi D studio since the day it opened, which I think was about 8 years ago...it could be longer, I can't quite remember. However, I am always satisfied with the CUT I receive here, the FADES are on point every time, BEARDS are trim clean, and the conversation is also great. I recently moved to North Hollywood and I still make the drive to Pasadena to get my hair cut and beard trimmed. read more

This guy knows what he's doing! Really wonderful experience. The salon has a great atmosphere and Raffi is very easy to talk to and explain what you want. I felt like I had been going to him forever, even though I just met him. I would recommend him again and again. He's affordable so you can continue to go. read more

Very glad I found Raffi. His studio is a bit hidden on the second floor but there's usually convenient street parking. He's a true professional. My wife and mother in law told me it was the favorite hair cut I've gotten. He also lets you make appointments online. Been coming here a few times and will definitely keep coming bak. read more

Raffi does a great haircut, fits you in at a moments notice and is very inexpensive for the quality of haircut you received. Can't speak for his ability to do a woman's haircut, but for a man's he was bang on as far as I'm concerned! Would definitely recommend him. read more

Raffi is AMAZING at what he does. He actually listens to what you want and you'll never leave his studio dissatisfied. He's truly talented, call him. read more

Raffi D. is the best hair stylist in the world. No one will do a better job than Raffi.

Got a great, reasonably priced haircut here. Comfortable, not-awkward conversation as we watched America hand Argentina's ass to them in Olympic basketball. Don't live in Pasadena but if I did, I would be a regular. read more
