About California Barber Shop
California Barber Shop is a low-key spot that delivers high-quality services at an excellent price. With three great barbers, they take the time to get it right, paying attention to detail and making sure the sides look clean and tight. The barbers are professional, respectful, and friendly, making customers feel valued. The shop only accepts cash, but it's worth the effort to book an appointment. With prices starting at $25, it's a great value considering the quality of service. Despite being a bit further away, customers continue to make the drive back due to the exceptional service and lack of better options in the Bay Area.
Easily the best barbershop in town. Great prices, consistently solid haircuts, TVs right in front of the chairs, and the barbers totally respect whether you're in the mood to chat or just sit quietly. If you're looking for a clean, classic men's haircut without the trendy fuss, this is your spot. The couple of negative reviews seem to be from folks expecting a salon experience--this place isn't that, and that's exactly why it's great. Five stars for doing the basics right, every time.

Do not try to step here without an appointment. Yes, when you try to call them, they might not respond because it is the people who work here who handle the calls as well. I didn't get a haircut, but I liked the way they talk to their customers here.
