The Basics

Everything I want in a barbershop, just moved in a block away. Was walking to another shop down the street that was supposed to be open but wasn't. Found this place on maps and walked over. Drove by many times the last few days and didn't notice it. I'm pretty picky when it comes to barber experiences. This place was perfect. Prado gave me a great cut for a first time seeing me, listened to what I wanted, but also put his own style to the haircut. Shaped my beard, and hit me with the razor line up which is the sign of a real barber. Prices were as fair as they get in Sacramento, I'm sure they vary a little by barber. Happy to stumble upon this great little barbershop 100 steps from home!

August 9, 2023 was my first time in life visiting (The Basics Barbershop). Slap is the name of the Barber who cut my hair 100% accurate as I requested which was bald with no hair in any spot as I recently recovered from brain surgery due to seizures. I give Barber Slap an 5/5 star rating on Google Reviews and will sure return. The price was $40 which is around my college-student budget range. 5/5 Star rating to the management for having a clean barbershop for clients to walk into. I sure will return when needed.

Wakes me up with their subwoofer everyweekend. I've not had my hair cut here, but a business should not negatively affect its neighbors. That DOES absolutely deserve negative attention. No other business on this block can be heard upstairs, or next door, they are exceptionally loud.

Son gets hooked up here. Excellent atmosphere and great Barbers.

Amazing service and great vibes. Great shop banter and they’re pretty funny. I previously had a pretty bad experience so I stayed away for a while and decided to give them another chance. The individual I had a bad experience with is no longer there and Axel who cut my hair this time did an amazing job and really listened to what I wanted in a cut. I’ll be returning and they won over a new customer. Give them a try.
