Truth Barber Lounge

Their cuts are great. Ricky hooked my boys and i up. Also, they stay open late. They are friendly. Prices are reasonable. And there is a great view while waiting. I recommend them

Truth Barber Lounge is skilled, professional and extremely customer-​centric. I have really thick and straight Asian hair which can expose even the tiniest imperfections, but I always leave with a perfect cut because Gonzo’s attention to detail is second to none. Gonzo combines a ton of experience and expertise with a willingness to ask questions to make sure you get the exact cut and style you’re looking for. Gonzo sets me up with a haircut that works well at my office job and out on the weekends. If it’s that time, and you’re in need of a haircut, you should definitely check out Truth.

Prince was my barber for a while before truth barber lounge opened up, he’s always been great with his customer service always showing love and making sure your cut is up to your perfection. All of the staff are cool and chill and always welcome you in when you come this is the only barbershop I’ve been to consistently in the past year and I plan to keep this as my permanent shop

Jus started gettin cut by Gonzo a few months ago n every time I get exactly what I want on point. Professional run spot and the shop is super clean with a chill vibe. They care about the service they provide and all the barbers can cut. Been to a lot of barbers and shops all around LA and I drive up from Redondo everytime to Turth to get cut because they do it right and just some good people overall!

Gonz is the man. Gave me the cleanest fade ever. This place marries art/​music/​barbering to the tee. Great customer service and the DETAIL is the best in DTLA. Thanks so much for the love and dedication guys. Keep it up! I had a great experience with Gonzo but the flow between each carried through. My go to barber for sure.

The barbers are extremely friendly. I have been going to Prince mostly and he always hooks me up with a fresh cut!

I don’t normally review on Unilocal but in the case of Truth Barber Lounge, I must. The addition of this neighborhood gem is one of the best things to happen to the rising Downtown LA scene in a while. The fact that Prince has opened and owned 8 cut shops in Chicago really shows. The ambiance, vibe, music, and people are the best. I always leave feeling great. It’s my «happy place» I guess you could say. The quality of the cuts shows too. Prince’s client list is a virtual «who’s who» of the entertainment /​sports industry. I can’t say enough about Truth Barber Lounge. If you haven’t been yet — go.

Gonzo literally gave me the cleanest haircut I’ve ever had. He’s also really helpful with giving ideas and advice on how to style etc. I’m definitely only going to him from now on. Plus the place has super chill vibes.

One of the best barber shops i been to. The barbers actually care about the customers and makes you feel at home.

Great shop, amazing barbers.
You go in there and it’s a great environment, good vibes.
You want to be there even after your cut is done. Gonzo is the best, I don’t go to anyone else! –bear

Ive been going to Gonzo for over a year now, and when I heard he was going to be opening up his own shop I had to come and check it out. These guys are the real deal, and are up to date with all the new trendy cuts and fades. They are hands down the best barbers in the DTLA area and treat you with respect each and every time you see them.
Good music, good vibes and good people. Thats what you’ll get every time you step into the Truth Barbershop.

Pristine service with a prestigious reputation. And that’s a lot to say for an establishment to be so new. I walked in, I felt as if I was at a friends house because everyone is so friendly, welcoming, and attentive. As I waited I kicked back had a glass of champagne, and indulged in the ambiance of such a different way of going to a barbershop. Prince cut my hair to perfection, not to mention engaging in a very enlightening conversation. I mean after leaving there all I could think is where’s the competition after that?! None better none to discuss, Truth Barbers hands down!

Been getting my hair cut by Gonzalo for the past couple of years. Always does a great job and slides me in with little notice. Glad he finally got his own shop!

Two words… GOD SENT! After moving to DTLA and leaving my barber of 7 years I was unsure of who would keep my cuts fresh AF, but after doing some intensive research I found Gonzo & Prince. Trust me… Man these guys will not disappoint! They will keep all you hypebeast famz look dope and that’s the TRUTH! Keep it up boy’s, and congratulations on the new siiiick as spot. That shiiiiits fire!

I’ve been getting cut by Gonzo for a few months now. Both barbers are great. Best in DTLA by far! The new space welcomes the traditional barbershop vibes with a modern and spacious layout. Definitely recommend these guys!

My new go to spot. Nice chilled vibe with hella tight beats pumping, while getting the meanest fade from the barbers there. Shout out to Prince! Thanks for hookin it up homie!

Nothing but positive and great things to say about Truth and the barber’s that reside there. I don’t let anyone other than Gonzo remotely come close to cutting my hair, second would be Prince. His attention to detail and precision will have you coming back for more, for you you realize the quality of work that he does. The ambiance of truth is laid back with positive vibes flowing through out the place. Appointments are needed so call in advance for setting up your hair cut. I know that whenever I need a chop I can count on Gonzo to have me looking A1. I will continue to be a loyal cient and am looking forward in seeing what Truth barber shop will flourish into. Best of luck and keep up the amazing work fellas.

I’ve been getting my haircut with Gonzo for almost 2 years. He never disappoints, haircut I ask for haircut he executes. He’s always very flexible with appointments and never disappoints. I always leave the barbershop feeling 100. I would recommend you to get you’re haircut with Gonzo or Prince because they’re both talented barbers up to date with any new haircuts and can cut any type of hair, they both have very diverse clientele and have the experience for you to feel satisfied when you leave the barbershop.
As for truth barber lounge it’s not your typical barbershop, it caters to the clients. It’s a place where you can come and lounge and forget about your problems, listen to good music, chill and just vibe. All good vibes. Soon to be known as the #1 barbershop in DTLA. I would recommend you to bring you’re brother, friend, father, uncle, cousin, anybody and won’t be disappointed. You pay for quality and won’t be disappointed.

Excellent customer service with East Coast style! I would recommend this barbershop to anyone who takes their appearance seriously

Gonzalo and Prince run a clean operation. Their service and cuts are the best in town.

The shop is really clean and chill. If you live in DTLA it the only barber shop you should go to. I’ve been to others and they don’t compare to truth barbershop. Ask for Gonz he does great work!

Finally! I have been getting my hair cut from Prince for quite some time now. It is amazing that these boys now have their own spot to call home. Much talent! Much deserved! Thank you fellas!
Anyone on Unilocal looking for potential barbers.
trust me.
…you can trust these boys!

I’ve been taking my son to get his haircut by Gonzo for 4 years now and I have nothing but amazing things to say about him. If I needed to I would drive an hour just for my son to get his hair cut with him. He is beyond talented, dedicated, professional and his work comes out perfect every time. I couldn’t imagine taking my son anywhere else besides Truth. As for Prince, I have heard and seen nothing but remarkable work from him as well. You can’t go wrong with a cut from either one of them.
The shop is pristine, modern and has such a welcoming atmosphere. When entering the shop you are always greeted and given the vibe that your appointment is the utmost importance to them. If you need a cut Truth is the place to go. I assure you, you won’t regret it!

Been getting my cut with gonzo for a year now, and it’s always a pleasure to get a fresh cut by such talented people, come get chopped here

I’ve been getting cut by Gonzalo every week for the last 9 months or so, ever since I moved downtown. It’s gotten to the point that I get depressed when I’m traveling for more than a week because I have to deal with using another barber. Gonzo gets it right every single time.
Very happy to see him and Prince opening up this location. I could’ve gotten a cut in the back of an alley and still be happy. So having this new location with tons of natural light, space, good music, and good vibes is just a bonus.
Even if I end up leaving downtown, I’ll gladly make the walk over from the Financial District to get cleaned up.
Tip: If it’s your first time visiting I recommend you call ahead to get an idea of how busy they are.

I’ve been working Gonzo for the past 4 years. He’s definitely one of the best barbers I’ve ever been to. He’s always able to schedule me in & get me out in a timely manner. I’ve never been let down by his work. The shop is in a prime downtown area, great art work on the walls. Most importantly the shop is very welcoming and both gonzo & prince will always give you an honest opinion on what works for you. In addition to all that it’s super affordable.

Great service, finally two DTLA barbers who are consistent and have an appreciation for customer service. This will soon be the «go to» barbershop in all of LA.
