Top of the line Barbershop

Took a long time on my cut, but it came out really nice. The barber in most of the pics above is one of the best barbers I’ve seen in a while. Recommend him although the barber next to him cut my hair, and he was good too,

This barber shop is horrible, they take way to long for a simple hair cut. I would never recommend this place unless you want to wait for 4 hours and watch the barbers drink beer on the clock or watch them walk out for a break and come back smelling like weed and high af

Came in got helped quick, but maybe I didn’t get the right barber. He was rude & had to sit down to cut your hair. I didn’t mind at first, but any little thing I would say I wanted he would react as if he was angry. Wasn’t even satisfied with the cut, it wasn’t what I even asked for… Even gave him a tip, but never coming again. There’s better barber shops

Cut my hair here I told I didn’t want it short. I came out looking like Akon with a little bit of hair left on top for my so called «comb over» owner felt bad and tried to buy me out by giving me a free hair wax. Very unsatisfied.

Pete makes you feel like you’re at home. His shop is the kind barbershop you went to when you were a kid. Read a magazine, watch some tv, it doesn’t matter you’ll want to wait while you talk about whatever’s on your mind.

Ive been switching barbers for the past 6 months and i have finally found my Barber. The owner, Pete, cut my hair and i am more than happy with the undercut he did, i just showed him a picture of what i wanted and BAM he went to work and paid attention to even the most minor details. Im very picky with hair cuts but he nailed it! They made a regular customer out of me!

Been going to see Jaime for a bit now and he’s become my number one barber! There’s sometimes a wait for him but that cool. That just means he’s doing something good and it shows. Never had a bad haircut from him. Décor is cool. Other barbers are cool. If you get a chance, see Jaime when in need of a haircut

Just want to give a shout out to my boy Big Pete! This shop is the business, it lives up to it’s name «Top of the Line». Best haircuts for both kids and adults, the price is not bad very reasonable especially for the service and the barbers are very professional… Thanks again brother, keep doing your thing man…

If there was a ZERO option, that’s what I’d give to this business! Jaime is the rudest & most obnoxious barber I’ve ever met! He chatted with his two friends (customers) forever as I waited an hour and a half at this awful place & when it was my turn, he rudely said, «excuse me» & motioned for me to step to his chair! He huffed & puffed as I showed him a picture of what I wanted & he barely nodded! I told him I wasn’t going to get a haircut with him & left! DISGUSTING BEHAVIOR! Stay away from this place!

If I could give them a zero I would, this was the second time going there only because the first time was mediocre plus it was convenient & I didn’t want to take my son to another new barber since were new to the area, the old man (don’t know his name) was the one who cut my sons hair my son was complaining but I thought he was tired turns out he really was being rough with him (keep in mind he’s 5) and he gets his haircuts every two weeks never have they scraped/​burned his skin from the line ups when we left there his sides were pretty red I thought they’d go away but no it got worse. Horrible barber if you don’t know how to cut children’s hair maybe you shouldn’t I would have rather been turned away then got what I got don’t take your kids here check out the pictures my poor son asked me to never take him back there instead I’ll be making the drive every two weeks to take him to his old barber an actually good one who has cut his hair (mind you same cut) for 3 years with not so much as a scratch !!! Would never dream of going back & if he’s not the owner he should be fired !!

I finally found Jamie, he is a great barber, I alway cut my hair with him or Chris when they worked with Rudy’s Barber Shop, which was on Peck Road, by Lower Azusa, in El Monte, then it closed down and I lost touch with Jamie, and then lost him, I did not know where he moved too, now because of Unilocal,I found him, thank you, if you want old school biker, blues music, this is your Barber.

Hard to find an experienced barber. So I know I’m lucky to have had Jamie cutting mine for years now and before that his Father. So you know he is serious about what he does. If you haven’t been able to find a reliable barber… go see Jamie!

I went here to get a hair cut with my boy before I went home to the Bay Area.
Seriously, THE BEST HAIR CUT I’VE EVER HAD.
I’m so sad that this place is all the way in Southern California because I would come here every other week if I could. I’m a barber myself but I hate cutting my own hair. The guys here were very friendly and very Talented. Right when we entered the building we were greeted and treated very well. The guy that cut our hair sat down when he cut. That was the first time I’ve experience that. I apologized that I forgot his name BUT i recommend going to him if you want a mid-​fade or a clean comb over. He made blow dried my comb over until it was nice and neat and added some pomade…
The price they charged was only 12 bucks!!!
In the bay area, they would charge 20 – 25 bucks for the type of quality their hair cuts are. NOT HERE! they only charge 12 bucks.
I will come here again next time I come visit my homeboy. Probably will come here every time for now on. I’ll probably be their farthest traveling customer for now on. haha

Went back to top of the line for the 4^th time. I’m going to try somewhere else. The barber I had today was a nice man but… he’s rough on the head with the shears. I prefer not to feel like I’m being beaten up. Last time a younger fellow used shave cream and razor for cleanup, touch up. this time, no. why? It should be a more consistent cut. Part my fault, I guess. I should find the guy and stick with them. Not assuming they all do a good job. Regarding the place. They have their fridge, microwave, toaster over in the middle of the shop. the fridge is a nice Coca-​Cola display machine. I’d buy a soda if they had any for sale but it’s their lunch on display. Oh, and the topper is, the barber gets a text and while I’m sitting under the oppressive barber’ bib, he actually responds… can’t it wait a freakin’ minute. I got a call while I was getting a cut and I waited to answer when we were done. On another ⁵⁰⁄₅₀ note. They no longer accept ATM/​credit cards and I didn’t have the cash. He let me go get money and come back, which I did. They need a barbershop makeover. The place may be comfortable for them, but it’s not for the clients. They have magazines all over (Maxim, Ink, etc…). There’s hair on shelves and window sills (I was sitting next to a window today). They play risky shows on the TV’s, N word and F word, wouldn’t want to bring children to hear or see them. Price, okay. I’ll try a few more places and if happy, I won’t be back.

My new barber
Found this place on Unilocal,reviews are high so I decided to check it out. Place was nicely set up. It’s a square layout, nice grey colored walls. Place was decorated with Lakers and Raiders memorabilia; my favorite teams. There was five TVs in total, any direction you looked you could watch TV. A Lakers game was playing at the time.
There were four barbers working all busy cutting hair and two people ahead of me. I waited like 15 minutes top which is great compared to the hour I would wait at other places. I got my haircut by the actually owner too. He was really mellow and friendly. He started talking to me right off the bat. He gave me a great haircut and even trimmed my beard for free. Haircut was $ 12 bucks and I gave him a $ 3 buck tip. I will be coming back again.

Im Picky when it comes to getting Haircuts and I only go to People that are Good at what they do! Jamie is the Man that Gets it Done Right! Prices are Great and his Fades are Incredible so if you need a Cut just ask for Jamie and he’ll Hook You Up!

I drove from Whittier to this place.
This place is great… TV’s, men’s magazines, razor shaves, and just the ambiance of the place is great.
Been trying to find a different barber for some time now, since the falling out of my last barber. Saw this place on Unilocal,drove there and was NOT disappointed. The barber sat me down right away, and was done with a great hair cut. All the Barbers there are friendly and can carry a conversation.
I highly recommend this place too all.

Been looking for a barber shop around Covina/​Irwindale/​Baldwin Park area since i came back from Iraq.
Being a female soldier, it’s so hard to find a barber that will cut your hair the way you want it to be … i saw Top of the line barbershop here on Unilocal so i decided to stop by.
Of course i asked for Pete (since all the reviews are all for Pete). he is very friendly and knowledgable in cutting hairs. I showed him a picture of my regular haircut and he took time to get it done, very clean/​charp cut.
WIll definitely come back!
Positive Notes:
** Price is very Reasonable
** Big flat screen TVs all around the shop (love it)
** Very clean shop
** Excellent equipments
** Cool ambiance
Negative Notes:
** None
** Nada

A few months ago I was in the area and needed a haircut asap.
With no time to go to my usual barber in DTLA, I checked out Top of the Line.
Jamie cut my hair and we talked about blues musicians and the best places to see live music.
Today I found myself back in El Monte and decided to go back in and once again a great cut from Jamie.
The is a really solid spot, great prices, service and vibe.
They have a flat screen tv and plenty of magazines to read while you wait.
Thanks Top of the Line Barbers!

When I first moved to the area I spent about 6 months going to various barber shops in search of a good barber until finally meeting Pete Reyes.
Pete not only has a great personality but above all does an incredible job when cutting your hair. He’s knowledgeable in various types of cuts and really makes an effort to cut your hair according to the way you want it. He pays attention to detail and takes the time necessary to make sure you’re happy with the cut.
One thing that really makes Pete my barber of choice is the fact that he’s one of the few barbers who actually still uses a blade to align the hair after cutting it. It really makes the haircut look clean and well done. Unlike other barber shops, all of this is included in the same price and it’s not an extra charge like all the other places I first went to.
I would highly recommend Pete to anyone who really wants a great haircut.
