Shorty's Barber Shop - Los Angeles, California

Jessica is truly the best! I moved to LA 4 years ago and had trouble finding a good barber. A friend recommended Shorty’s Barbershop, so I called and made an appointment and was recommended to Jessica. She really took the time to understand the type of cut I was looking for. Because she did such good job, I got compliments on my haircut from friends and family. Not only is she a great barber, she is fun to chat with and makes you feel comfortable. If you’re new to LA or looking to switch up your barber, I HIGHLY recommend Jessica.

The worst haircut ever. I’m travelling and walked in, asked for a skin fade and the guy has absolutely ruined my hair. I asked for nothing off the top and he took half an inch.

I specifically explained how I like to keep the front long as I wear my fringe forward and messy, and he’s absolutely butchered the fringe.

They charge $50 for this when they shouldn’t charge anything more than $5. The guy clearly had never done this type of haircut before.

I showed him pictures of a guy previous haircut (attached) and this was the results.

This was my first time trying Shorty’s.

I booked a trim with a random stylist and it seemed like she struggled to match my reference photos (which were all of me and past haircuts). I tried to get her to fix it during the cut but it wasn’t happening. She went too short in some areas and I had to remind her more than once not to continue cutting in those same areas.

I was resigned to living with a different cut but when I got home I noticed how uneven and unblended it was. I called the shop, explained the situation, and they booked me in a couple hours later for a recovery cut with someone else. Stephanie was the new stylist and she was fantastic. She was easily able to do what I asked for and I left the second time feeling relieved and happy. I would absolutely recommend her to anyone, and I appreciate how responsive the shop was to the whole situation.

Barber was great and really good with my hair type. Very knowledgeable. My hair looked great and still looked good weeks afterward. He gave me exactly what I wanted and I was very impressed.

I've lived in LA for nearly ten years, and no one is more meticulous, patient, or amazing as Jackie L. After trying many places, I finally found my go-to with her—she's the only person I trust to cut my hair. Jackie is pure goodness, and I walk out feeling like a million bucks every time! If you want the best, book her!

I'm a woman, and this is the first barbershop I've visited. As such, I initially felt awkward and out of place, but the front desk person was welcoming and made me feel more comfortable. I was going through some stuff and acted on the impulse to cut my own hair into a pixie cut. Now I needed someone to fix it. I felt horrible about it, but Dee Dee was very kind and reassuring. She was able to salvage the mess, despite me cutting some of the chunks way too short. Months later, my hair still looks good. I have never been able to go so long without getting a haircut while having short hair before. Not only did she fix my mistake, she also sculpted my hair into something that would grow out wonderfully. I highly recommend that other women go to her for a pixie cut. Not only is she very skilled, but she is also a lovely person. Plus, I don't think you can beat the price for the quality of cut.

Absolutely the best barber shop in LA! I have been a long time customer for over 10 years and if you can get in with Gilbert you are set. He is always on point and does an amazing job to keep me looking great!

My hairstylist Jackie gave me the best cut of my life! She turned me from Joe Schmo to Jake Gyllenhaal. Honestly I’ve been getting my hair cut at Shorty’s for 8 years and my recent cut with Jackie was my best yet - I left feeling my hair has never looked better. She listened to what I wanted but elevated the look. 5 stars!!!!
