Telegraph Barber

great atmosphere. solid work. park at a street meter or in the neighborhood. worth the $.

Horrible service. Says they’re open at 10. Got there at 10:20, waited until almost 10:50 and still not open. Super unprofessional.

Not really happy with the cut. Seemed rushed and sloppy … the fade in the back seems way off. It looks like three separate sections. I know $ 23 is not the high end of haircut prices, but plenty of places can blend properly for a lot less.
Edit: Owner reached out and offered a free cut.

Ulises cut my hair. It’s my first time coming here the wait was not long for me at all. Place was really nice set up really clean and professional barbers seemed really friendly and welcoming. The reason I gave it 3 was because I felt like the barber was rushing to cut my hair because he had booked a person for an appointment around the same time he took me in as a walk-​in .don’t get me wrong the guy knows how to cut up and fade but felt his sense of urgency to get me out the chair since the guy who booked was their waiting. So I felt he was not as detailed on the finished job he did on the fade, could have been done better with just more time, I had to remind him to trim and line up my mustache to … I plan to come back and give it another shot …

If you guys ever got your haircut at Jake’s in Eagle Rock, some of them are here now. I didn’t even know until I walked in, saw them and got surprised lol.
Always quality cuts from them. I was about to go to Eagle Rock but since I moved to ktown i needed to find a spot closer and low and behold I Unilocaled this place to see familiar faces.
Highly recommended.

This barber shop hits all the points of a great barber shop. Great atmosphere, skilled and personable barbers, and affordable prices! It really doesn’t matter who’s chair you sit in (Juli’s, Alex’s, or Carlos’, and I forget his name but a taller Latino friend), they are all very good at cutting. Park wherever you can on the street near or across the barbershop. If you decide to walk-​in, make sure you’re willing to wait for 30min to 2hr for a chair depending if they’re busy or not because they do get very busy. If not, making an appointment beforehand is the smartest and most time efficient choice.

The staff here is on point when you want to get your ears lowered. If you want to get a haircut from Carlos make sure you call for an appointment.
It’s affordable and isn’t overpriced like other barber shops around. Parking in the area is a hit or miss in the neighborhood.

Brilliant place with some amazing books to go through while you wait!
Tim was fab & put me straight at ease with good comic banter. The wet shave was excellent & definitely recommend these boys!

Everything was going well until the dude sliced my cheek with a straight razor, giving me a scar. Didn’t even offer to comp my visit. Never again.

Came here after lunch in Ktown. The last barber I went to, in dtla messed up the ‘do. Came here, and got my hair fixed, kind of (it was a REALLY bad job, from the last guy), and some great recommendations. Will definitely be back. Only wish they were open Sundays too

I found my new barber, April. My hair is very demanding and she nailed it. Told her how I did and wanted my hair to be styled. Scissor cut. Shampoo. Blow dry and styled. Perfect.
April works Tuesday and Wednesday mainly. Also had a good experience before with Carlos, but recommend making an appointment for him.
Old school feel with a modern touch. Clean shop. Friendly barbers. Definitely recommended if you need a clean cut in LA.

Forgot the name of my barber. But my barber was female. She totally instilled the confidence I needed today with the haircut she gave me. Very nice cool place. I will become a regular. Thanks :)

I discovered this place on Unilocal and I am extremely happy that I did. The shop is clean, well decorated and super friendly. I was able to just walk in and get my haircut without any hassle or problems, wait time was short/​instantly. Alex was super cool and treated me like an old friend rather than just another customer that just walked in. I got a haircut, a rinse and product for only $ 23 bucks, which compared to other old style barber shops was a deal since an average just cut is $ 30 to $ 40 bucks. Definitely check these guys out, I will definitely be back for my next cut.

My appointment was at 12.30 on a weekday, on my lunch break, thinking that there wouldn’t be that many people. There was one person ahead of me, took my appointment, and I didn’t sit in the chair until 1.30.
Edit: When you call and make an appointment, they ask for a cell number. If the business won’t call me to tell me that my appointment was taken, why bother asking for my cell number? Pretty ridiculous.

Awesome staff and space. 10 stars! I highly recommend.
Got a great haircut from Rigo and met Carlos, the owner. The prices can’t be beat for the quality and experience.

ive been seeing carlos since june after researching on Unilocal and seeing all the positive reviews. I dont usually write reviews, but I felt like someone with his expertise definitely deserved one. He knows how to fade my hair to perfection, and works the scissors equally the same.
I really like the décor of the place too, very cool design. It has a old school vibe with a modern touch.
Make sure to book in advance, cause hes been getting busy.

Stopped by here cause I needed a barber since I’m over going to Asian hair salons and having inconsistent haircuts all the time. Additionally, I’m not dropping absurd amounts of money for a stylist yaknow?
I got my hair cut by Trevor, he’s the man. Awesome talks about cats, traveling, getting wasted, girl advice, etc. You know, the usual barber talks.
My only regret is that my poor asian genetics prevent me from growing a gnarly beard, now I have no excuse to ask Trevor to stroke my chin with his graceful barber hands.
Telegraph Barber. Do it.

Stopped by here due to the great reviews and got a good cut/​fade from Carlos.
I’ll be honest, I came here because of the 1 $ sign on Unilocal but was surprised to see that a normal haircut was $ 23. I usually pay $ 14 at my normal hair salon but she was out for the week and a haircut was overdue so I decided to pony up and get a proper cut at a barber shop.
Carlos did knock off a few bucks for being a first timer so that was nice of him.
Overall, the shop is nice and clean. Carlos was nice and gave a good cut.

Had my first haircut by Carlos yesterday. He gave me a great haircut. I could not be more happy with the result. He really knows how to cut hair.

Carlos has got to be one of the best barbers in L.A. I’ve been searching for a barber for months and saw Telegraph on my morning drive to work. After getting my first haircut back in February, I’ve been going back to Carlos for my weekly fades ever since.
I highly recommend booking a haircut with Carlos or one of his associates, they do an amazing job and make sure you’re happy with your cut. The prices just can’t be beat for an amazing cut as well.
For my Asian brothers who are stuck in the ritual of hair salons, please change your ways and start going to a barber!
