Joels Barbershop — Local services in California City

If your a Black man, or have Black hair types stay far away from this place! Upon walking in the gentleman barber (with a skin fade) ignored me and watched tv. An older woman offered me her chair and I happily obliged. The damages to my neck line after my fade have lasted for 5 days now. Either her dirty tools, lack of knowledge, or a combination of both gave me a very painful rash along by neckline. I literally cannot goto the gym or sleep normally due to the burning sensation it creates. They are simply not experienced enough to run this operation...

I just went there today, 3/20/23 in desperate need of a haircut, I asked for a 4 guard on top, and a medium bald skin fade, I walked in looking homeless and left looking like I have a 401K. Don't worry, they didn't push me back, my hairline is receding lol 😆 hands down the best customer service I've received in a long time. Bring cash as it looks like they don't take any type of card. Prices are amazing... the daughter cut my hair, amazing person, I didn't get her name, but ask for he, and she'll get you...

Cuts are decent, but 3rd time coming here for opening and they did not open at 9 or 930am. No notice on door or on website and we waited 20-30mins each time before leaving. If you plan on going here go around noon-closing (but by then they are busy and they do 1st come 1st serve, no appointments...
