Faded Times Barber Shop

Good visit Daniel made me feel comfortable and got down with the clippers, he gave me his card and missed placed it but you remember real ones. When ever I’m in the valley I will definitely be back

Came in around 2pm on a Saturday. There was a line of about 5 clients ahead of me waiting for any barber. Over the span of about 40 minutes only 1 of us was called up. During this time about 4 other guys that seemed to know the barbers walked in and got seated for a haircut within minutes. After seeing this happen various times, I realized I could easily be sitting for hours ignored and walked out. This barber shop doesn’t know the value of people’s time and for that reason I will not be giving them any of my business.

U want a barbershop where u don’t have to wait hours to get a haircut? Well this is it, free and on time appointments.
Ask for Danny, he will take care of you.

Great atmosphere staff cool af. Probably the best barber shop in the SFV hands down. Always used to rock the long hair looking like a rasta man. Now when I get my haircuts I’m looking like a classic man. G’d up to the feet up. This place is a must. Best to make an appointment to get in and out. It gets busy.

Worst barbershop experience ever. First I went inside spoke with the owner/​manager or whatever he is, he told me it was a 45 minute wait time, 4 or 5 people ahead of me. This should have been clue #1.
After waiting for an hour and a half, the manager told me that I was still behind three other people that I was ahead of… Yes, these walkins came after me.
I just laughed and walked out. Time is money and I’ve wasted too much on that lame ass shop.
They need some new management or someone to work the front because barbers play favorites, they bullshit, manager uses «n***a» with practically every sentence (he’s not even black), petty.
They take friends ahead of you, even if you were there before. Having «walk-​ins welcome» listed on the wall is a joke, if you do not have an appointment good luck.
Just another poorly run barber shop, professionalism? Yeah right. I’ve should have known better going to these ghetto ass places.
Lupe cuts nice, probably others too… It’s a shame this shop can’t get it together. I’ve been here before, still a shitty experience, I don’t even know why I still bother.
Save yourself the hassle and pay some $$$ for a cut… Its true, you get what you pay for. Lucky me this shitty experience was on the house.

Decided to switch barbers so came here. Love my haircut! I’m typically very picky. Danny did an amazing job. Made suggestions that other barbers typically don’t. This is my new barber spot in valley. Pricing Is very reasonable, no extra charge for appointments. Very welcoming atmosphere. The shop layout is great too, very old school barber shop style with a modern twist.

I was recommended here by my brother Siamrath saying that he knew the owner Lupe back in the day. I came in not knowing what to expect other than the fact that this place has a 4.5 star rating. So a completely wild goose chase in terms of quality.
One thing I like about this place is that the owner seems to actually greet people as they come in. You have no clue how many barbershops I’ve walked into that I was just left standing in the front for several minutes before someone even tries to welcome me in. I understand some places are busy but at the very least greet me and say appointments only at this point. I’d like to know if I should wait or be on my way.
I was told there would be someone ahead of me which was very acceptable, it is a walk in after all. He did make a mistake and forgot he had one more appointment before me so I did end up waiting a bit more. No worries I’m in no rush and people that took the time to make an appointment should be seen first anyways.
I’m not 100% sure who my barber is but the business card he handed me says Jesse but the top says jay the barber. Either he goes by both names and happened to print it out twice or I don’t really know. But since Jesse was the one with his name fully written out I’ll proceed to assume he was my barber.
When I sat down he proceeded to ask me if I had a general idea of what I wanted. I told him a short comb over and showed a picture of the last time I had my hair cut. He followed up with several questions to get a better understanding of length and style wanted and offered helpful suggestions.
With my sides I assumed my last barber used a size 1 clipper but Jesse says it looks more like a 2. So I met him half way and settled for a 1 & ½. It came out the perfect length that I wanted.
My side burns got pretty long by this point in time and he asked if I wanted to square it off or make it into a (pick?). I actually was a bit confused about what he meant and he actually explained if I wanted it cut horizontally or have it pointed. I chose the former.
For the back side he did taper upwards which came out looking very nice.
The big issue though was if I wanted to have a hard line cut where my hair parted. Initially I was reluctant and Jesse seemed too as well since a bad haircut is completely within the eyes of the person receiving it. So after all said and done and Jesse cleaned up around the edges with what sounded like a straight edge razor, the finished product looked absolutely great.
The only problem was my hair grows out very quickly and it is very thick. So after being asked when my last cut was which was only a month or two ago Jesse asked if I wanted it shorter. Now that’s something you don’t always find coming out of the words of a barber. Longer hair means more often it needs to be cut and more money made.
So thanks to his honesty I did end up asking him to cut it shorter. He also seemed to be pushing the hard cut line and after receiving it I couldn’t be happier that I did. Although I will need to wait for my skin color to change there as it’s completely white there while my skin color is a light tan.
All in all it was a great experience and I probably will expect myself coming here more often. Perhaps my search for a decent barber or salon is over. The only one I ever really liked was back in Thailand and that was completely full service. So it’s great to know I don’t have to fly half across the world to find a decent cut.
Who knows I might even invest in getting my hair cut more often rather than letting it grow out like a shaggy dog lol. The price came out to be 16 dollars and with a 5 dollar tip for great service I really don’t mind paying 21. Until next time it seems, which seems to be sooner than later from the looks of my very more than content review.

Best barber shop I’ve been to. I set up an appointment and was in and out in a few minutes. I really dug my haircut and thought it was a bonus that it was inexpensive. These guys are very good and they know what they are doing! I Danny is my barber and I’m always getting the best haircut! I recommend this barber shop to everyone!

Great barber shop I switched over from deez cuts because our son’s barber wasn’t reliable when we needed him and even after making appointments we would wait… Faded Times honors your appointments and they greet you… def the place to bring your business to!

This barber shop is the best! My mans hair always comes out really good ! And when I have gone with him, Danny and lupe always greet me and they are really nice, my mans previously barber shop was dirty and all the guys were rude!!! I highly recommend going here !!

great cuts, good vibes, perfect ambience for getting a razor sharp line up and haircut. really booming business. worth the wait after you get that cut! STILL the best production of a haircut by all barbers here. Thank u Lupe!

I’ve tried many Barbers in the SFV but Faded Times beats them all. It’s a chill spot with a TV, pool table and plenty of seating. I’ve seen them pull off many different clean looking haircuts and styles on their customers. I suggest calling ahead of time and setting an appointment.
All of the guys there are skilled in what they do

If there was an option for zero stars this place deserves it… NO CUSTOMER SERVICE. barbers care about appointments and not walk ins, place is dirty, no hand towels in restroom to dry your hands. I was only acknowledged once… not worth my time or money, walked out and went to Cali Cuts right down the street, was acknowledged and complete service in 20 minutes, your business name «Faded» serves you right as I simply faded away…

Mike the Barber, I can text him any time during the day and make an appointment with him so I don’t have to wait as a walk on.
I’ve literally never walked out mad or disappointed with my haircut. He knows my hair type and keeps that in mind when cutting.
I ask him for special cuts and he genuinely will tell me if I can pull it off or if my hair type will be able to keep the cut.
Thanks Mike

WOW! I can’t rave enough over the quality of work these guys do. honestly best place to get a cut in my opinion. the staff is friendly and they are gentlemen. My biggest concern is that these guys aren’t charging more for these cuts. AMAZING, WONDERFUL AND RESPECTFUL is all that I can say about this establishment. MY DUDE tony is the guy that cuts my hair I love this place it’ fits my needs.

My boy Lupe, knows how to do a fresh cut. Not only does he own the shop, he’s already a master of his craft. Plus, while you wait to get a cut, you can play a game of pool. The prices are good, the artwork is awesome, and the barbers are perfectionists.

My fiancé has been getting his hair cut by one of the owners for years and I have to say whenever I come with him, the guys are extremely nice and attentive to all the customers. They also have a comfortable seating area and a vending machine, and some tv’s to watch tv while I wait, it’s great!

Danny is great at what he does, our son has been having his hair cut by Danny since he was young. We are glad we found him again :)

My husband made an «„appointment“» so that he wouldn’t wait for a hair cut… 25 minutes later he is still waiting in line while the barbers are completely rude and no manners. Very disappointed with their service. For a so called «business» there is nothing professional about this place. If you want to make an appointment be sure to make an appointment to wait for an hour before getting cut. Seems more like a hang out spot than a barber shop. Not to mention don’t bring your children here unless you want them to hear a Cus word after every word. This place is a joke!

Place sucks! They by pass you and they are complete dicks. Go there if you want to waist your time
