I found The Traditional Barber for my husband, and he had his haircut with Diego. He did such an amazing job, he was super attentive and really took his time to make sure everything was perfect. My husband came home with a fresh, clean cut that looked so good! We'll definitely be going back to Diego. If you're looking for a talented barber, I'd highly recommend him read more

I took my nephew here and I definitely recommend coming to Diego. He was so professional and patient! He gave him an excellent cut and we're so happy with it. Coming back with my husband next time :)) Also personally love the vibe in there, much more classy than other shops. read more

My wife was tired of cutting my hair and suggested I stop being a cheap-ass while using her for slave labor and actually offered to pay for my 1st real legit haircut once things opened up so I thought I'd might find a barbershop for the future... This spot definitely didn't disappoint. *It's appt only and you gotta call ahead. In addition, there hours are not your typical 9-5pm but I can appreciate the exclusivity! Parking: Street and no meter so that is awesome Ambiance: I dug it. The ceiling fan. The pastel walls. The chairs. The 80's tunes. It literally felt like I was getting a haircut on an outdoor boardwalk in Miami in the 80's. (Not that I would know what that is.. Haha) Barber: Marteen is an absolute artiiiiist. He's precise, thorough, and really knows what he is doing. I've had a few bad experiences with people cleaning me up with a straight edge razor but no knicks and it was an overall great cut and look. It was a really good haircut..... Shoutouts to Argentina baby! *Due to covid and the Delta variant, I was a wearing a mask and he wore one for me too which I can appreciate. Also, when he was cutting my hair he was lifting the mask carefully while cutting my hair perfectly. Ask for my boy Marteen! He'll hoook you up with a nice and fresh cut! JY read more

He also does coloring if you're interested in mixing your look up a bit. Thank you for being consistent and always giving me good energy ! read more

The Traditional Barber - Undercut - Barbers Near Me - El Segundo, California

Marteen cut my hair for the first time and he was amazingly detailed and very kind. I had a cough and he grabbed a water for me from next door. It was very sweet. This may be one of the best haircuts I have had in a while! Prices are great too read more

I was looking for my VERY particular 19 yr old Nephew, who needed a serious cropping of his locks that grew during his semester at college. I asked him repeatedly exactly what kind of Barber he was looking for. I suggested mine, but they weren't open on a Monday. And knowing him I damn wasn't going to take him to Floyd's. So I searched and looked at the reviews of each barbers in the Manhattan Beach area. I didn't know of Traditional, but the reviews were solid. AND they were open on a Monday!!!! Diego the Barber was kind and listened to my Nephew. He appreciated how Diego asked the right questions, was very detailed and kept checking in with my 19 year old Nephew. And now he's headed back to college after the Holiday break looking better than when he left. Thanks Diego. read more

I was in a bind and needed a haircut in an area I don't usually go to so I came here to Yelp and read the reviews for Traditionalal Barber. I called and set an appt with Diego. He asked me what I wanted and was very professional about it. He did a great job, my wife is happy and so am I. Cool, old school spot too. read more

I have been visiting this barber shop for hair cuts the last couple years. Everyone is extremely friendly and making an appointment is easy via their website. Diego, regularly cuts my hair, and does an outstanding job each time. I highly recommend him if you have yet to visit this barber shop. read more

Love this spot! Booking via the website is easy. Small local shop. Marteen gives great cuts. Highly recommend.

Daniel was brilliant. Did the best cut my son has ever had and we'll return for sure. My son is biracial so his hair type isn't the usual hair type they get in this neck of the woods but Daniel held it down and has experience in both salons. All the barbers can do any hair obviously but he did a great job of fading my sons new look fresh for 8th grade read more

Really had high hopes for this spot...called early morning Wednesday to schedule a appointment. Martin was their said he would take me. Got their a little early sat down. It's a nice small hole in the wall and welcoming . My one star comes from the cut...I asked for a undercut that is not all retarded high..I showed him examples and pictures. He said not a problem that traditional undercuts are done high. I explained I didn't want that, I wanted the pictures I showed him, I wanted the cut to be low...Long story short I came out with a damn Mohawk......literally a Mohawk not even an undercut or slick back style..i have 5inches of hair in width on top of my head...wtf...I explained my engagement party is next week(9/4/16) today is (8/24/16)...what a complete fail... I either have to shave off this ridiculous Mohawk or hide my hair underneath a hat for my engagement party!!! Not sure how that's going to look....a button up shirt and dress shoes and a baseball cap...beyond upset, beyond angry and beyond disappointed...never coming back read more

As a barber I like to visit other's shops when I go on vacation. I want to see and learn how others in the profession handle their business. Xavier, owner of The Traditional Barber in Inglewood, El Segundo and West Hollywood is doing things right and making California a better place to live, one cut at a time. I'd recommend his shops to anyone in the area or going for a visit to the Golden State. Give him and his other barbers a shot. You'll be glad you did. read more

I came thinking Xavier was cutting my hair, being I've only been once before. He wasn't the one who cut my hair, I asked for a fade and it was average at best and on top of that I got home a washed & dried the gel out of my hair and it was absolutely uneven everywhere. Last time I spend money there unfortunately Made an appointment somewhere for the next to be fixed it was that bad read more

Meticulous barber (Diego) - love my kids's haircuts! He took us in the same day. Glad we came to this place!

Marteen hooked me up today. Showed him a picture of what I wanted and he executed flawlessly. I also appreciated that he didn't attempt to make small talk and lose focus on my haircut. I've had that happen plenty of times in the past. One of the best haircuts I've ever received. read more

Very good barbers. One of the best haircuts I've gotten before. Will definitely come back

I chose this shop because of the positive review on Google, Yelp, and Facebook. I made a 6:15 appointment online with Rafael a week prior. Not only did they text and email you to remind you of your appointment, they also ask for a credit card in advance in case you don't show up. Well guess what? I got there a little early, and no one was at the shop when I got there. I went to the bar next door to ask, and they said the barbers come and go, but if I had an appointment they'd be here. I checked at 6:15 and it was completely empty and locked. They sign on the front door said they'd be open until 7. I waited a little longer, and even called a couple times and no one answered. How disappointing. read more

My boyfriend comes here, it's great place service is quick and they all probably the most professional guys in the business, by far best place in elsegundo area ..thanks read more

Great place and service. Marteen is the best! Plenty of free parking space around the area and also Public parking available.

Dint even wanna give them one star first told the guy what I want and he didn't even listen said don't touch the top and he cut the top and he charged me mroe than any barber I been to in the South Bay the is place horrible the first time I made appointment they didn't even put my name down so they didn't know who's appointment it was don't recommend read more

Xavier has reached out to me and offered me very generous compensation for his employee's action. Let me make some clarifications now that I've cooled down a bit. 1) The haircut itself was actually pretty good. The fade was even and graduated nicely. 2)My review was about a single employee there. Not Xavier or his establishment. 3) Calling his barber shop a "hole in the wall" was cruel on my part and I officially apologize for that. The barber shop itself is actually quite nice and its small size makes it feel cozy and personal. Has a really nice vintage feel to it. 4) I should have spoke up while I was there. There was a few opportunities that I should have said something (especially when I saw that electric razor). That being said Xavier has offer to give me a haircut and shave again and I will write another update once that happens. For now I'll update my review to three stars due to Xavier's outreach. read more

Marteen is the MAN! I came to this barber shop through a recommendation and I was not disappointed. I had an idea of the style that I wanted and it would be the first time getting this style. Marteen made me feel comfortable as soon as I sat down in his chair. The way he maneuvered his shears through my thick luscious hair was magical. He's like the present day Edward Scissorhands. He ended with a razor shave and I left with a clean cut and a hard part. The classic barber chairs comforts your booty and it feels like you're sitting on a cloud. This shop has a professional team and I will definitely be back every time I'm in town. Actually I'm going to move to LA just to get a haircut from Marteen. read more

The Traditional Barber - Before and after. Marteen works miracles. - Barbers Near Me - El Segundo, California

Love this place, but they have overbooked me TWICE. As a working parent with a busy schedule I can't afford to wait an extra 30-45 mins past my appointment that I make days ago. Get it together fellas. read more

The Traditional Barber has a great relaxed vibe. Marteen has been cutting my hair there for a couple years now. I always leave there in a great mood because Marteen is not only a talented barber, but he's awesome to talk to and making regular appointments is easy. He's always on time. Overall I recommend this place and Marteen in particular. read more

Wow... Just wow. I would have to say this place deserves ten stars. The hair cut were both out of this world. I think Xavier was a little surprised when he saw the mop I was walking in with. Aka no haircut for two years and a massive scraggly beard. But photos below will show that this isn't just a haircut and a bear trim but art. Will only becoming to Xavier. read more

Xavier is the best barber in LA. No, I haven't tried them all... but I have visited enough barbershops in this city to know that I have found the barber I'm going to keep coming back to. Finding a barber who can give you the EXACT cut you're looking for is no easy task. Xavier nailed it on my first visit. And he has given me a perfect haircut every time I've returned. He is definitely the most consistent barber I've ever had. His fades are perfection and his scissor skills are spot on. He takes his time and makes sure you're happy with every aspect of your haircut. Also, being able to book your appointment through the barbershop website makes the whole process so much easier. My only regret with Xavier is that I didn't find him sooner. I recommend Xavier to all of my friends and co-workers. If you're looking for a great barber in the LA / El Segundo area, stop searching and make an appointment with Xavier. read more

The traditional barber is an amazing experience. Not only do you get a hip haircut, the atmosphere in the shop is really calming and fun. With the Al Green playing in the background and the AC cranking, this place is downright comfy! Marteen is my go to guy. These guys try their best to make a man look good. Oh, and I failed to mention the straight razor shaves! Old school vibe. Keep up the good work gentlemen! read more

Marteen is the best! This dude is awesome at cutting hair! He's a great guy, fun to talk to as well! Marteen is by far my favorite barber!

Stopped in to get my face cleaned up. I blown away. All the professionalism one should expect from a legitimate barber. Clean, classy, comfortable environment. I will most definitely return. read more

Stumbled upon this sweet place. Great service, easy parking. Will come here again for a great haircut. Recommended.

Went in for a haircut with Xavier for the first time as soon as the "Stay at home" order was lifted. The shop was very clean. Plenty of parking!! I watched Xavier wear a face covering entire time he was in the shop as well as sanitized the chair and his tools before I sat down for my haircut. He did an amazing job and will continue to get my haircuts by him as long as they are open. read more
