Great experience! Love our hair & beard cuts! Staff is very skilled & accommodating. Took us 3 in even on a busy Sunday with a wedding the next day! The decor has coo vibel & has character! Cuts were reasonably priced considering its prime location in Danta Barbra. Very recommended!

Easily the best barbershop experience I’ve ever had. I had a walk in with Christopher, what a pro! Great haircut, cold beer and all around exceptional service. Will be coming back anytime I need a cut. Wish I could give 6 stars.

Incredible experience, such great energy in the shop and one of the best haircuts I’ve had in a long time. They make you feel so comfortable and will work with you until everything looks perfect. Highly recommend!

Christopher is wonderful. He managed to salvage a cut gone wrong from another establishment on our first visit a year ago and provided another marvelous coiffure upon request again today. We appreciate your craft Chris. Thank you again.

Amazing experience at the barbershop. Nina took great care of my hair and gave me the best haircut and service. I even got a back massage at the end!


Sep 05, 2024

Best barber I’ve ever been to. Very professional, friendly, and I always get the haircut I’m looking for


Sep 05, 2024

Best barbershop in Santa Barbara, very experienced people that know what they are doing. If you want a cut here in town this is the best place in town to go, hands down.


Sep 05, 2024

I don’t usually leave reviews but I have to recommend Christopher Wood to anyone looking for outstanding customer service and a clean cut. He understood what I wanted from a few pictures and took time to make it look great. Been coming back ever since.


Aug 05, 2024

Amazing experience!! Christopher did me right. 100% recommend.


Aug 05, 2024

Jorge and the Barber Shop is the best place in town. Exceptional stylists, service and ambience. Classic barber shop vibe with an amazing Salon too!


Aug 05, 2024

This is the only place to go for a clean shave and haircut! The atmosphere is is like a barbershop should be! Loyal customer as long as I’m in Santa Barbara


Jul 05, 2024

What a local gem. 100% go.


Jun 05, 2024

Great spot and great haircut- Jorge has a background in styling men's and women's hair and uses his experience to do fantastic work. I have always gone to a stylist in Montecito and I was a bit concerned about a standard barber, but Jorge gave me a great haircut, not too short but just as great as I was getting in Montecito for a great price. Could not be happier, will be sending my wife and kids here as well.


Jun 05, 2024

I am not an easy head to cut, but The Barber Shop did an outstanding job. I feel super fresh and rejuvenated from this cut. The service was great and the barber is highly skilled. Worth the money.


May 05, 2024

My trip from Texas - Las Vegas - Santa Barbara - Los Angeles. I was very impressed with the professionalism, hospitality and atmosphere here! I showed in the photo how I would like it and she did it. Thank you! I will definitely come here again. I recommend this Barber shop👍🏻👌


Apr 05, 2024

My barber was very knowledgeable and gave me a great haircut that fit my facial structure!


Apr 05, 2024

Very high quality service here. And they offer you a drink when you’re waiting which is a very cool touch. My wife and I both found that they don’t communicate quite as well about cost as would be ideal—we both ended up paying more than we were quoted for the services but they didn’t tell us there would be an extra charge for other things they did.


Mar 05, 2024

Chris is the GOAT - I've gotten haircuts all over the country and Chris Wood is the best hands down. Always excited to get a cut from him.


Feb 05, 2024

Amazing service, Christopher W was never satisfied with how my hair was and made it perfect. Very detailed and interactive. The barbershop itself had a really cool environment. Overall great experience.


Feb 05, 2024

By far the best looking barber shop I’ve been to and one of the best hair cuts I’ve gotten in a long time. Chris was very nice and talked through what he was doing during the hair cut.


Feb 05, 2024

Chris did a fantastic job on my hair cut. The barbershop looks amazing inside. It gives you a nice cozy feel and the barbers are all friendly and nice. 10/10 experience.


Feb 05, 2024

Chris gave me one of the best haircuts and best barbershop experiences I’ve ever had. I was beyond impressed with the quality, hospitality, and atmosphere here. I even got a complementary drink! Will definitely come here again.


Feb 05, 2024

Chris is the man, gives a great haircut and knows how to get along well with anyone. Definitely would recommend!


Feb 05, 2024

Christopher has consistently given me great cuts. Seen him 4 or 5 times now and have sent many teammates to him and they all like him as well. Works with you to give you the haircut you want.


Feb 05, 2024

From the moment you walk into the barbershop you are made to feel right at home. With a warm smile and hello from one of The Barbers, it's warm Aesthetics, and a complimentary beverage, you can't help but feel like family. Any one of The Barbers there are licensed, highly trained and professional and can accommodate any hairstyle of your choice. I know all this because I'm one of The Barbers. I feel honored and blessed to be one of the team. God bless and have a Merry Christmas


Feb 05, 2024

I don't recommend this shop! The cost of services is outrageous! Especially when the so called barber is unlicensed and not supposed to cutting under California barber laws and regulations. I was supposed to get a neck shave with my service and did not. They rushed me in and out. My issue was the service and was that the barber was UNLICENSED! Nina is not a licensed barber. Someone please report this establishment!


Feb 05, 2024

I'm consistently amazed by the quality of craftmanship, the result, and the feeling I have when I leave a session in Pete's chair. The atmosphere of this shop screams barbershop but Pete can make anyone feel right at home. Even a picky long haired blonde like me.


Feb 05, 2024

I’ve been going to Christopher at the Barber Shop for a little over 2 years now. I think he’s the best and I couldn’t go anywhere else!


Feb 05, 2024

Moved here from Hawaii last year and stumbled into the barbershop. Met Barber Chris and completely went above and beyond anything I could’ve ever imagined gave me the sickest mullet possible. Been going back to him ever since. Not only is he my barber but my friend. Highly recommend Chris and the barber shop where good hair happens.


Feb 05, 2024

My favorite Barber Shop in Santa Barbara.


Feb 05, 2024

My review here is for Chris who works at the Barber Shop on State Street. He is kind, caring and energetic. He offers a complimentary touch up in between haircuts and cares for me emotionally, spiritually, and physically. He is an all around great person who has a great work ethic and I always look impeccable after leaving the shop. 10/10 review. Come to the barbershop and ask for Chris. You won’t be disappointed! Warm regards, Eli G


Feb 05, 2024

Thanks, Andy... Excellent clean up! LOTS of compliments that evening at the event I was attending. I will definitely be back the next time I'm in SB.
