VIP Barbershop

I found this place through Unilocal and decided to recommend to my son, who has thick curly hair. I tagged along with my son. I promised to not nag him or tell barber how to cut his hair (since my son is 19). Upon entering they were very nice, great smile, genuine people. The haircut was great, they took their time to do it right. Needless to say that my son will definitely come back here! Win win for all!

Been going here for two years now and Hilton has worked his magic every time. Very detailed and precise. Don’t have to worry about a thing. He also cut my two year old sons hair and did a really good job.

I took my 1 year old son for his first haircut at VIP today and had nothing but an amAzing experience! Frank was so awesome with my son, my son totally had great time. We will definitely be repeat clients when my son needs his hair done. Glad we decided to try VIP.

First time in– looking for a «vintage» 20’s look for an event. Very accommodating as a walk in though appointments are recommended as they were quite busy. Troy had an opening and hit it out of the park! Definitely would recommend!

Ruben has been my barber for over 2 years now. Since I moved to the Concord area, 4 years ago, I have patronized 3 other barbers in the area. Needless to say, VIP, is now my new home. The professionalism and family environment sets VIP from any other shop in the area (also for the tech junkies you can set appointments from your mobile device). If you are looking for a «mancave» VIP is your place!

This barbershop changed my life! Online appointment booking and on-​time appointments! As a single mom of two boys that need haircuts regularly, my time is limited, but VIP Barbershop is respectful of everyone’s time and all the barbers are very professional and talented. We especially love Frank — he is always on time, professional, and very precise in the work he does. My boys and I enjoy our time talking to him during the haircuts and he keeps them looking fresh and brand new! He does quality work every single time, and he even helped my son find a new signature style :) All the barbers here are great… I highly recommend this business!

Been going to this shop for almost a year now and I seriously cannot picture myself getting a cut anywhere else. Ruben and his team are the best in the biz and they make me feel like a billion bucks every time I leave their shop!
When you come in, you’ll be greeted to a nice welcome by some down to earth folks. The décor is homey and I thoroughly enjoy the classic Motown music they play, which is complimented by the numerous Motown music posters plastered all over the establishment. They offer all types of services: from haircuts to fades to tapers to shaves and everything else in between. They also offer a variety of rare, high quality products that would make any hair & shaving enthusiastic chuckle with excitement!
And did I already mention that these barbers are some of the best in the business?! Highly recommended for those wanting to look their very best and feel confident in tackling the world head on.
I myself only get cut by the owner Ruben… but I would not mind getting one from either of the skilled barbers at this shop. Oh and I forgot to mention… make sure you book an appointment first before coming in! They get a ton of business so I recommend calling at least a week in advance to schedule. You won’t regret it!

Ruben gave me one of the best haircuts I’ve ever had. He took the time to figure out exactly what I wanted and I ended up getting exactly that. Thanks again!

Best barber I’ve had hands down. Frank can just look at you and know what cut works best for you. Not too many barbers have that ability. He does great work plus he is just a genuine good person. They also use the best equipment and keep a clean shop. Very professional family atmosphere because they are respectful and don’t play ratchet music and shout profanity across the room. I highly recommend Frank and VIP barbershop.

I have Omar do my hair, and before him I never had so many compliments on my hair. Thanks Omar!

Been coming here since ’05 when it was originally three chairs with Ruben, Hilton and Jeremy holding it down. Was a regular and saw Jeremy every two weeks but moved to Riverside in ’07. I came back in ’11 and now they have five chairs and I have been seeing Ruben every week ever since. The reason I come back everytime is how welcoming and relaxing it is. Every barber that holds a chair is as good as the next. The consistency of great service and quality marksmanship has me sold everytime and always will. Plus having that real barbershop feeling with this group of guys makes it even better. I see these guys more on a regular basis than some of my friends and family lol. It’s hard to find quality barbers that are consistent so ever since I found VIP I’ve been blessed.

I have been going to Frank at VIP Barbershop for about a year now. I love this place. Very welcoming. Everyone is always very pleasant and I always come out with a great cut. I plan to continue coming back for many years! Thanks for the great service, Frank!

This place is the best. I take my 12 year old son here and we live in Lafayette. We see Troy. He is awesome and is always on time. He books up quick so make sure you always schedule in advance. Yesterday I tried to get my son in, but he was booked so I had to go elsewhere… NIGHTMARE. Everyone at this barber shop is very nice and professional! Check for yourself.

We’ve been back twice and saw Frank both times. He was great with my three year old and always gives him great cuts! Thanks Frank!

I needed a real barber after I got tired of hit and miss haircuts at my last barber. This place is amazing. The barbers were all very nice and welcoming when I came in through the door. This place had an old school feel to it and I loved it.
I had a walk in (they take appointments, just call ahead) and got set up with Omar. I told him exactly what I wanted and asked for some suggestions and he knew exactly what I was asking for which was perfect. Usually I would need to pull out a photo or something but not here. Omar took his time and it came out real clean, I loved it.
Definitely coming back here for my next cut.

this review is long overdue! Rubin, is a true master and by that I mean hands down bar none this guy is a surgeon! His style is so versatile, anytime I have come to him with a photo or an idea of a cut I want he’s nailed it! His scissors skills are amazing and his clipper skills are next level (i call him Darth Fader!). His haircuts last me twice as long, the texturing he does makes my hair grow out perfectly!
As for the Barbershop, the energy is the best! Super friendly, these guys are true gentlemen…
If you need a cut look no further VIP is the spot…

After being mistaken for my daughter’s older brother, I decided it was time to change my «spiked-​hair» look. Frank helped me choose a more mature hair style that worked out well. Wife likes it and I don’t look like I’m in high school anymore. What more could you ask for?
My second cut was done by Ruben because Frank was out sick. He was able to replicate to a T. I think it’s safe to say these guys know what they’re doing.
Facility feels old school and you get a nice neighborhood, comfortable ambiance.

I’m 400 miles from home and I need a haircut. I started searching on Unilocal and I find this place. I walked in and had a seat in the chair right away. I got a sharp haircut with no messing around. I wish this place was in the Southern California where I live because I really think this is the best haircut I have ever had!
Ruben Jr. is the owner. He was cutting someone else’s hair at the time, but he was as nice as could be. His dad owns another barber shop over on Salvio Street.
These guys are a class act. Friendly, professional and fast.
I probably would have made this 5 Stars, but I thought $ 20 was a little steep for a haircut when I am used to paying $ 14 back home… but then again, it was the best haircut I ever had.

My 5 year old had the worst time. with cuts before we found Frank. Now you asks to go get his hair cut. So happy we found this spot

Big shout out to Fillmore Frank, he currently resides in Antioch, but he’s from Fillmore and I think I’m the only person that ever called him that. To my knowledge anyways. He’s the 4^th person ever to cut my hair, I do not like anyone else to do it if you have not been since back in the day. You can say a hats a hat a shoes a shoe, but a barber is not a barber. Next time you see someone with a F***** up haircut! remember this review!!!
Good look in’ Frank, hold me down when I’m back…
