Reviews for Northern Monkey Barber

Jul 2023

This guy is so amazing!! I was in San Clemente for a wedding from Wisconsin. He did an amazing job with my hair cut and shave. Ask about the name. Great conversation with the guy.

Josh is a true craftsman. He is careful, meticulous and works hard to achieve a haircut that is personal and well executed. He is also a great guy to talk to! He's usually got something fun on his television or can talk about everything from music to SoCal recreation. Since moving to San Clemente in the middle if a pandemic he was an island of relative normal and I think a huge reason the move didn't feel stranger than it was.

I highly recommend Northern Monkey Barber. Josh has delivered a stellar haircut each and every time I’ve gone. The vibe is super chill, the drinks are cold, and the conversation is always interesting. I’ve referred 2 friends to him and they have both come back with very positive feedback. Most importantly, my wife compliments my haircut each and every time I come home from seeing Josh.
