Mike’s Barber Shop

Mike you the man! I’m new to the area and needed a haircut. My barber is in LBC, therefore didn’t feel like making commute. The place was clean, and Mike was very respectful and prompt. I’m giving this place 5 stars for overall service and customer satisfaction. I was happy with my haircut. However maybe I was supposed to ask, but the only complaint I had was that he didn’t clean up my neck with the razor. But as I said overall I’m very happy with the result.

Will be regular hair cutter from this point forward. Talented, fast and reasonable.

I’ve been going to Mike for haircuts since 2012. I love the fact that I can make an appointment for my haircut so I can be in and out and about with my day. He pays a lot of attention to what he does and he always checks if you’re happy with the way you look before wrapping things up.

I had a really nice haircut at mike’s
He is professional
He gives enough time to each haircut.

Mike was a very polite and professional barber from the beginning and end of our visit. His shop is kept very clean and orderly which is nice to see after being in other cluttered barbershops. It took his time cutting my hair and asking me for feedback along the process. I was very happy with my haircut and I will definitely go back to see Mike for more haircuts in the future.

I’ve been getting haircuts from Mike every two weeks for the last year. As long as I live in Pasadena he will be my barber.
First of all, I’ve never had an issue with his haircuts. They’re consistent and exactly what I describe to him. Sometimes I’ll switch it up a little bit and he always gets it spot on.
Every time I make an appointment, he’s ready for me right on time even though he’s very busy.
Other than that he’s a great guy who I have no problem giving my business to. He cuts my hair in a timely manner and doesn’t waste any time talking. At the same time, he always is nice enough to ask how I’m doing and seems like he genuinely cares.
Also he keeps his shop and equipment very clean. I never feel like I have to worry about the hygiene or cleanliness of his clippers.

Went in for a simple head shave and I got in and out of there rather quickly. A bit too quickly it turns out. When I got home and rinsed my head off I saw a lot that was missed. Luckily I have my own clippers so that I could clean it up myself (I usually expect to have to do a little, but this was too much).
I liked the guy so I was upset by the outcome.

Mike is a great barber consistent and precise. I’ve been going to him for close to a year and never leave disappointed. Like all great barbers Mike appreciates his customers to have clean hair before the cut.

mike is the most meticulous and friendly barber i have ever met. his shop has a relaxed atmosphere that makes having a haircut feel like a soft pastry.

Solid place to get your haircut at a reasonable price. Never feels rushed. Welcoming and relaxed environment. I go regularly and feel comfortable encouraging my friends to go as well.

Went there 45 minutes before closing time and they were closed. Bad for business, if you can’t stay open then change your hours so people don’t waste their time going to your establishment.

Been going to Mike’s for about 4 months now and I have no complaints. I get the same quality haircut here I used to spend 40 for at half the price. As he cuts my hair I relax to soothing instrumental music and am out and on my way in under 30 minutes.
Highly recommend this place. Keep up the good work Mike

I recently moved to the Pasadena area and decided to try this barber shop based on the overwhelmingly positive Unilocal reviews. Unfortunately for me (and my hair) reviewers did not get this one right.
Strike 1 — he showed up late. Never before in my life have I known a barber to be anything but punctual.
Strike 2 — he was extremely rude. Complained about my hair through the entire haircut and stopped in the middle (poking my head the entire time) to have a conversation with another customer.
Strike 3 — he did a very poor job. I showed him a picture of what I wanted (short and rounded on top and very short on the sides). Walked out with what looked like a flat top that had grown out unevenly.
Strike 4 — he is not cheap. My hair was not long (approximately 1 month of growth since my last haircut) and I was charged the $ 25 «long hair» price.
I would rather cut my own hair drunk and blindfolded than come back to this establishment.

It is really hard to find a barber who is good, fast, and cheap, but Mike is all three. If you know what you’re looking for (1 on the sides, high fade, half inch off the top), it takes 20 minutes at most, which is great if you’ve got a packed day. I’m usually out of there in 15 minutes.
$ 20 (including tip) isn’t bad for a haircut. It’s not the absolute lowest priced place, but I’m okay paying a few bucks extra for clean edges and even sides.
Mike also has some great stories. Hilarious guy.

I went here for my first time today. Mike was extremely kind, accommodating, and he did a fantastic job. He was meticulous and professional, and gave me an excellent haircut and beard trim for only $ 24. I’ll definitely be sending my friends there, and making him my go-​to barber. I’m happy to give him a five-​star rating.

He charged me $ 20 for a men’s haircut. Total haircut time about 15 – 20 minutes.
The haircut itself was decent. Mike definitely knows what he’s doing. That’s the highlight of my experience here.
However, I think $ 20 is a little pricey for a man’s cut. It’s definitely not $ 12 or $ 14 as other reviewers have quoted. So that means Mike has raised his prices as much as 66% in one year.
BTW the sign didn’t even say $ 20, it said $ 18 and I never got an explanation I fully understood.
I also didn’t have much chemistry with Mike. We just didn’t get along for whatever reason. I won’t go into the details of our argument but I’ll just say that I respect his ability and will pass on future service from him.

Visited Mike for the first time this last weekend and I was thoroughly happy with his cut. I just moved to Pasadena from the east coast a few weeks ago and tried Mike based on the excellent comments I found on Unilocal.Mike is very polite and definitely does excellent work. I could tell that he was in the zone and focusing on the details. He asked a few times if things were looking OK as he progressed, letting me know that he wanted to make sure I was happy. I definitely left a happy customer and will be returning for sure. I’ve found my west coast barber!

A friend recommended Mike to me. One of the best haircuts I’ve ever had. Good guy too! Definitely will coordinate my haircuts with visiting my girlfriend in Pasadena.

A very Nice guy with a very good service! He make a great MOHA in 15 minutes at a maximum! Je recommande vivement ce très bon endroit qui né paye pas de mine mais dont le propriétaire est très sympa, serviable et très efficace pour la coiffure ! Voir photo !

When I lived in San Diego, I would wait till I was visiting LA just to get a haircut here.
Great Barber! Does exactly what you ask!

Mike is the best! Detailed but quick. Clean shop and close to the 210fwy on Allen St.
