East Gate Barber Shop

"Rude as hell! I parked there for one second to pass someone a Uber order as it’s packed over there no parking and the old man yelled at me"

"Best hair cut I have ever gotten in my life. Love the genuine warmth and old time barber shop ambience this place exudes. Prices ever so reasonable make it all the better total experience."

"I stopped in to find out if I could park in this space, and a gentleman came out and asked if he could help me. I told him I just wanted to make sure I didn't get towed. We laughed, and I said since I'm here can you give me a nice lining? And he did. I disnt catch his name but we talked about law enforcement and such. I'm glad I stopped in and I will definitely stop by again to have a tight fade done. Thank you guys."

"I went in for a fade and a trim on my hair. It was unfortunately cut too short for my liking despite the photo I showed for reference (which I was later told was shorter than my final haircut but it is visibly the opposite). Left unable to style my hair, I went home with my head down in dissatisfaction to show my family. After getting some sympathy compliments, I went back in to politely ask for a refund but was informed that he “already put the work in”. While he did in fact put a whopping 5 whole minutes into cutting my hair, there was zero consideration for the fact that it took me 2 years to grow out my hair in the first place. It wasn’t even about the refund, it was about the respect and loyalty to customer service that ruined my experience. You can make another $20 in an hour, but a man’s hair is part of his pride and joy, especially when he’s going into college, which I will now approach wearing a hat resultantly from my sub par treatment and experience. I didn’t want to be one of those people who leave bad reviews without communicating face to face out of respect (which is very difficult for me due to a speech impediment and concurrent social anxiety, but I did it anyways), but evidently this establishment only cares about a quick buck and would rather have a bad review as long as they have your money. I sincerely wish circumstances were different, but I don’t want anyone else’s day ruined by a less than desirable series of events- so fair warning to those who decide to get their haircut here. I should have taken the red flag when I saw that there were no customers waiting when I arrived and when I came back. Before I get accused of just attempting to get a free haircut, leaving a negative review is the last thing I wanted to do as it would just be taking yet even more time out of my day than was already wasted, on something that shouldn’t have become an ordeal. Additionally, it would just be straight up selfish not to be honest with anyone else looking for a decent haircut. I just wouldn’t sleep well at night knowing someone else was at risk of having their day ruined as well. As I sit in the parking lot with a now significantly impaired self-esteem, I realize that I never leave a horrendous review on anything, I guess there is bound to be a first time for everything. I of course will not be returning to this location. Cheers. - Carlos Amaya"

"This is a great place if you looking for what I feel is a dying breed in the hair cut world. Everyone is very personable and the service was great! I had a great cut by Chad and really like the old school feel of the place. They still do a straight razor cut for your neck and actually know how to do a proper fade/high and tight. I was in and out of there in about 15 min but did not feel he rushed the cut at all, more like he knew what he was doing. This is my new Barbershop for sure! A few things to note: 1. They do appear to only take Cash 2. They do take walk-ins as others have noted but by appointment on Saturday. Though it appears you can still walk in on a Saturday but if you want a time for sure you should call ahead. 3. Near the DMV so depending on the time of day parking can be a pain."
