The Best Barbershop EVER! Fabio was amazing, and the owner gave us a great treasure by starting this business here. They put a lot of artisan craftsmanship into the hair and post-treatment that you didn't even know was possible! They ser a new standard. Highly recommended.

Hands down, the best barbershop experience I've ever had! The Shaving Octopus is a gem, and Ivan is a master of his craft. As a regular guy, I felt like a VIP from the moment I walked in. The atmosphere is sleek and modern, and the staff is friendly and attentive. But what really sets them apart is the level of expertise and care they bring to every haircut. Ivan listened to my needs and preferences, and then worked his magic. My hair has never looked better! And the fact that Hollywood celebrities frequent this shop is no surprise - the quality of service and skill is top-notch. Big shoutout to Ivan for an amazing job, and to the Shaving Octopus team for running a world-class operation. Five stars and highly recommended!

Been coming here for close to 5 years now and I cant recommend it highly enough! The only place I get my hair cut in LA. Michael is great, the music is always on point, and the location amazing. Really cool classy barbershop

I got a haircut from Fabio, which turned out to be the worst haircut and barber experience of my life. I asked for a fade on the sides and half an inch off the top. He started the appointment by telling me my hair style was ugly and to trust him and his process. Midway through the experience, I asked him to taper the sides more. He was offended, and said he does “classic” haircuts and I’d love it by the end. This was far from the truth. When he showed me the final product, I asked him to revise it 3 times to cut it shorter. Regarding the top of my hair, he spent maybe 5 minutes trimming and when I asked him to cut it shorter he refused and said I would look bald and it would be ugly and to trust him. I left this appointment disappointed, unsatisfied, and with the feeling that I was scamm

Always saw this spot at the Farmers Market and finally made an appointment. Absolute professional, top notch service, and it honestly makes me wonder what other amazing gems I'd been strolling right past my whole life. Cleaned me up with a cut that lasted a whole show (including the wrap party!) Just make sure you're ready to truly relax in the middle of one of LA's sacred shopping havens.
