Palisades Barber Shop

Great haircuts and great company!

Old school shop with great new school skills. This shop has the feel of a real Barbershop, ppl sitting and talking it up. Jose has 30+ years at the shop and does a great job… It was worth the drive and highly recommend Jose. You might even see a few stars come and go! 5 stars and will return!

Love this place. Always can get a fresh cut here with no hassle and friendly service.

The sweetest barbers ever!!! They are dedicated, and the best with 25+ years experience cutting hair! Celebrities get cuts here for a reason. Highly recommend!

A Palisades staple, have been getting my hair cut there for most of my life. A hometown feel where everyone knows your name.

First of all the place was not clean. The guy barely wiped the chair from the previous customer. The floors were not swept. When I sat down to get the cut I said a «1» on the top, basically a buzz cut, and a 2 for the beard and to blend it in on the sides. He did a terrible job on the beard — uneven and stray whiskers everywhere. I should have stayed home and done it myself with a cheap pair of clippers. On the top he barely went over it and it was not a «1» like I had requested. Meanwhile he is picking up the phone every five minutes to take appointments. At 2pm he promptly kicks me out like he’s finished because his appointment had arrived. I’m not happy but figure it will do and wanted him to let him get to his appt. Then the real kicker — he charged me $ 50!!! That’s double the most I’ve ever paid for a cut and a beard trim!!! What a waste of time and money. I’ll never be returning to this place. I’m going to have to visit another barber and spend more $$ before work Monday to look presentable.

As with all things in the Palisades you get canned tuna at lobster prices. Dated barber shop and not exceptionally clean. Nice barber but voiced the typical unerring commitment to keep the retail options here firmly fixed in 1959. Haircut was fine but at $ 35 for a men’s haircut plus $ 5 tip go find yourself a Supercuts or Fantastic Sams.

I’ve been coming here for over 20 years and always come away satisfied. Friendly staff and my go to gal Lucy always seems to be in a good mood. One of the few local places in this neighborhood not taken over by the chains and run by the same family forever. If you DON’T like Supercuts come here! Make an appointment as they get busy during haircut season. Angel my Labradoodle gives it 2 Paws Up! (Closed Sunday and Monday).

My barber shop of choice for 25+ years. JR does a fantastic job. Family run business that treats the customer like family.

Excellent place for a hair cut for the whole family. Very friendly and great service. Highly recommended.

JR is the best… listens and takes the time to get exactly what I wanted… didn’t think it was possible!

I love Palisades Barber Shop. I have been going for years and they are always courteous, professional and on time. It is a family run business and you feel that every time you go in. I have never had anything but a positive experience at Palisades Barber Shop.

I really wanted to like this place but the prices are ridiculous for what your getting. I understand the rent is high in the palisades but the place is empty lot of the time and this is why. The haircut was nothing special and I was annoyed to find out I owed $ 45 when it was done. I will never go back.

This place is great! When you go, ask for J.R. He is a great guy and an even better barber.
If you enjoy going to a classic barber with a personal touch, J.R. is your guy. He remembers your name and treats you like a person, unlike most modern places. Also, he is always good for some sports conversations (just tread lightly if you are a Giants fan haha).
All in all its a great experience. And although it may be on the higher end price-​wise, its worth it.

By far the best cut I have had in LA, and I have been to quite a few barber shops. Joe is a true master of the craft. I have also been cut by other barbers in the shop, and they are also great. Now that I have tried this place, I refuse to go anywhere else. It is the details that count, and this classic shop has them down to the T!

Can’t believe they charge $ 30 for a simple haircut.

I’ve been going here for almost 20 years. it’s a classic barber shop, best in the area and perhaps LA! JR is the man! Just don’t tell him you’re a Giants fan (lol j/​k)
Even when i lived 50 miles away I kept coming back!
Come check them out and support you’re local barber shop!

Been coming here since I was six, and 30+ years later I drive from the other side of town to the Palisades for my haircuts. The owner, Joe is the best, a great man and a great barber.

I wanted to like this place – I really did, because I like the idea of it. Unfortunately, the cut was lousy – kind of lopsided.
If I get brave enough, I’ll go back; the other reviewer certainly had a better experience than I did.

Are you tired of post-​modern hair salons with thumping house music and the smell of hair chemicals mixed with herbal incense? Do you want a simple, quality cut from people who’ve been cutting hair for generations? Then you need Palisades Barber Shop. This shop rocks. The décor is a throw back with warm, well worn brown leather chairs and pine wood paneling. But plenty of sunshine makes its way through the windows and instead of Bass Fishing and Soldier of Fortune mags you’ll find Scientific American, the NY Times, Newsweek, and Sports Illustrated. in other words, its got the best aspects of a classic barber shop with none of the red-​neck junk. And speaking of atmosphere, the Almaraz family that has been cutting hair there for years is wonderful. They are warm, professional, and cater to all age groups. Its a family affair and it shows. Tom cuts my hair and when he says he’s the Best in LA he’s not kidding.
