Shocky’s Barber Shop

Was searching for a new barber shop and luckily I happened to be driving by Shocky’s and dropped in. Bailey gave me a much needed haircut and I was extremely satisfied with the results. Not only is she great at her craft but she is also super cool to talk to. I don’t plan on going anywhere else for a haircut now. Thanks Bailey!

I found Shockey’s on Unilocal to replace my regular hair salon that moved out of the area. The shop is close to my work so I gave it a try. I can’t say enough good things about Bailey (the new owner and hairstylist) and her shop. I learned that ‘hair’ is her family’s trade and she definitely displays a passion for it. She rocked my haircut and she even made a few spot on suggestions about how to style my hair. Shockey’s is definitely my new regular barber shop. I will be back.

She was absolutely amazing! She styled my hair without me showing her a picture, and it came out awesome! She was very fun to talk to, very great personality, and I will definitely be a lifelong customer. Couldn’t recommend her more!

First time there and I went in to get a low fade and it came out really clean. Bailey is both friendly and professional. Prices are reasonable and the waiting time was not long at all (went in on a Saturday 11am). Would highly recommend. Great haircut!

I went in there and asked the barber I need a fade and line up. He tells me, «I don’t do that». hahahahahhahhahah
Not a joke true story, I wish I got his name.

Sharon does a wonderful haircut. She’s working on her own these days so there is usually a wait but if you call she is always willing to tell you how many are there and when her lunch is so you can plan the day. The prices are very reasonable. Definitely worth the wait.

I haven’t been to a barber shop since I was a kid, and as I have always had my hair long I’ve always gone to hair salons. But as I’ve grown older I’ve decided to keep it short, and go down the barber shop route.
After a couple of half arsed haircuts at Floyds, I needed to find someone who actually cared about cutting hair.
So I went in pursuit of a new hair salon, & stumbled upon Shocky’s on Unilocal. (Great reviews) and so I ventured into Burbank.
As soon as I walked in, Sharon the lady who cut my hair, made me feel so welcome & asked me what kind of style I was after (as I had longish hair) They cater for Men, Women, and Children, & so I sat and waited for my turn.
I could tell her customers love her, the conversations where like with old friends…& I can see why… she is so lovely!
There are 2 client seats, with waiting seats on the side of the room. It’s a pretty small place, but there is a sense of small town friendliness, no ego’s, just real people coming in, talking about their lives whilst getting a traditional haircut (which I thought was so refreshing).
After a little wait, I was up… I wanted a 50’s style, pompadour cut, in the modern style of David Beckham & Sharon instantly knew what I meant & went to work.
She genuinely cares about cutting hair, & what your story is & her attention to detail was perfection… I walked out of there feeling great! She did a great job & I am so happy with my new haircut!
I have lived in Burbank for 2 years & can’t believe I’ve only just discovered this amazing place, and I would recommend it to anyone.
Prices are cheap too which is an added bonus.
I am really particular about who cuts my hair but I felt like I was in safe hands at Shockys, & so I would love to come back again!
Highly recommended:)))

Sadly Shocky has sold out and gone away .
The new lady seems nice, I had her give me a flat top as I was headed to Death Valley, time will tell if she’s as good as Shocky was, stay tuned .

I bumped into Shockey’s a few years ago after suffering so many bad hair cuts all ’round So. Cal. ~
Shockey and Jeff are tops and nice folks to work with too .
They service the local Movie and T.V. Industry so some times are very busy indeed, can’t blame them for taking a lunch break ! .
Thursdays are now by appt. only so if you’re squeezed for time, make an appt. .
They don’t ever rush and always make sure they cut it the way _​YOU_​want it, this seems to be a difficult thing for «hair stylists «these days.
Ample FREE curb side parking and a wide side walk to park your bike where you can keep an eye on it .

I used to get my haircut at Floyd’s not too far away from this place. I decided to try out Shocky’s and am very glad I did. Shocky seems genuinely concerned and almost emotionally invested in your haircut. She (and her assistants) really listened to how I wanted my haircut and delivered. They spent extra time making sure it was just right and treated me very well. Whenever I go I feel like a guest instead of a customer.

I had a great experience here the other day. I booked a role in a film and needed a fresh cut to be on camera that very evening. I explained my situation, explained how Floyd’s had screwed my hair up three times in a row now. and we were off. The gentleman who cut my hair (his name escapes me unfortunately) was a great guy. He really spent some time getting to know my hair and getting to know what exactly I was looking for. He was really a very cool guy. We had great, easy conversation. he was thoughtful and pleasant.
By the end I had a very sharp cut. He’d spent a good amount of time going over the details, clearly caring about his work.
Needless to say, I was very pleased that Unilocal landed me here. I’ll be going back for my follow-​up in a few weeks. We’ve still got some work to do repairing the mess Floyd’s left.

The worst Hair cut I ever got in my life, plus the owner «shocky» is ver rude woman ! I tried to get a hair cut in this place 3 time on three day and every time I went is close an anyway when I entered I told her very politely finally I will get a hair cut hear and I she said: there is stupid thing people do called lunch !!. And of course her assistance Jeff is ver unprofessional that well he offered if He couldn’t give a good hair cut shocky can fix it later!!! Ggg

$ 16 for a regular adult cut here, Great Clips Burbank is $ 15. It is beyond worth it. I waited a day to review because sometimes I wake up and go «meh» but I looked in the mirror this morning straight out of bed and it still looks good. They took some time to show me how to style it to, and told me how to deal with my dry scalp without trying to sell me a product.
This is definitely my new place.

I’ve had a lot of haircuts from a lot of different haircutters. I remember one who was a haircutter and a college student, majoring in psychology. I saw her through undergrad, grad school, internship… It never occurred to me that she would stop cutting hair!
Sharon at Shocky’s is my hair cutter of choice, and has been for more than a decade. She cuts hair professionally, follows instructions, knows what looks good and executes with a minimum of fuss. And she remembers: When I sit down, she starts with a quick «How short do you want it?» before we start talking about other things, me secure that the haircut will be exactly what I want because that’s always what I want.
Check it out.

Haircut was horrible. Shape ups were crooked. Cuts were uneven. Nice people but not to skilled at their craft. Not going to be returning.

Left work on a very busy day to pop over and get a desperately needed hair cut. Got there at 1.30 — smack in the middle of Tuesday business hours. Only problem: the shop was closed with a sign to please come back after 3pm.
If you have business hours, you should keep them. You just wasted my only time to get a hair cut before some big upcoming meetings.

I had my first visit to Shocky’s today and was very happy with the experience. I didn’t have to wait long at all, had a very pleasant hair cut and chat during the cut.
Very basic ambience but I like that.
I will definitely be back and suggest everyone support a great local business!

Ivan isn’t only a barber but a magician! He transformed my curly hair into a 50’s straight hairdue! Which I’ve been trying to perfect for the past 20yrs. They should be voted as Burbank’s best barber!!! Bravo Ivan… you have a new life time customer!!!

After experiencing a pretty shitty haircut at Burbank Barber Shop a month ago, I decided to try somewhere different. I read the reviews on this place and they were all pretty good, so I figured i’d take my son in since he’s the one that really needed the cut.
As we walked in we were greeted by this really nice guy, Ivan is his name and hooking up hair is his game. Dude hooked my kid up, cleaned up his neck and sideburns with some lather and a straight razor and slapped some Bay Rum or something on him. Oh and the whole time homeboy was bumping Johnny Cash. $ 14 bucks plus an extra 8 bones for the guy later we left. It looks like a just found my new favorite place and my new barber.

[This business has a new owner and stylist as of ⁴⁄₂₀₁₆; Sharon has retired. I have not returned since this change, but plan to give it a shot, and will fully update my review once I have done so.]
I’ve been living in Burbank for just over three years, and had been going to a hair joint down the street; the cuts were decent, but the ambiance wasn’t entirely my cup of tea.
Anyway, as I would take a walk through the neighborhood from time to time, I would occasionally pass up this place called Shocky’s, which had the look of a long-​time barber shop, and was usually empty… which could be a bad thing, right?
How wrong I was. A quick scan of some Unilocal reviews, and I was on my way, hiking down the boulevard! The place was empty when I arrived, and I was warmly greeted by Shocky and another very friendly gentleman (Oliver?). I was immediately seated, and — after several questions — the hair began to fall.
Shocky clearly knew what she was doing… heck, after 23 years, she’d better! Gentle, thorough, and with great attention to detail, I was very pleased with the outcome! Needless to say, I will be back. By the way, Shocky’s has a get-​six-​cuts-​and-​the-​seventh-​is-​free program, which is a nice bonus. Overall, highly recommended!

I came to Shocky’s and got hooked up with a sick haircut from Coe. Here’s how it went down.
I pull right up to the barbershop; it’s in a nice part calm part of Burbank. I’m walking up to the store and I’m welcomed by my barber who tells me he’ll start working on me in a sec and gets the chair ready. I get in the chair, I’m comfortable and I get the sense that I’m in a straight-​up barbershop without the bells and whistles. There is some really interesting art work hung up by a local artist (I think) and if you’d like to purchase it you can.
I’m able to watch Coe work his magic and use a variety of techniques to get it just right. My fade is perfect. My sideburns are matched up. And through out the whole process we’re having a great conversation. It’s early and I’m pretty sure I’m the first customer, but Coe is on point and doing his thing.
Usually I’m a little weary after I get my hair cut at a new place, but I’m loving the end result. Often, I’ll go home and wash my hair immediately and style it the way I like it, but I kept it the way Coe styled it the entire day.
If you haven’t gotten the picture yet, this is a rad place to get your hair «kut» and you will have an awesome haircut when you leave.
