Davis Barber Shop

Davis Barber Shop is one of those places to get your hair cut. This shop is quite popular amongst the man's man. They tend to cater towards people who like their hair short and their meat raw. They seem to have a strong following of regulars and amongst the bros. Hair cuts cost $13 for a clipper cut and $17 if you want them to use scissors. Service, as everywhere, depends on who you get but they all seems to at least spend a little effort and time to get your hair decent.

During the mid-morning hours, the line for Fuji's extends past their store front. People from line sometimes go and get haircuts while they wait but during that time it's usually quite empty.

This barber shop has three regular barbers: The owner has the famous bamboo bicycles you see around town. Very unforgettable & cool.

Davis Barber Shop has the biggest toybox for kids, some in a glass case, books, cool jazz music and the floor is the classic black and white checker that gives it a great nostalgic look.

He has moved to San Diego now and I think his brother runs the place. When John was there he would have this awesome bike made out of bamboo. —NickSchmalenberger

2005-07-30 14:46:44   I've been going to this place for as long as I can remember, so I reccomend it by default. —GeoffJohnson

2005-11-29 15:18:01   Went there for the first time today at lunch. Got a scissors cut from a 50-ish bearded guy. I couldn't really describe what kind of cut I wanted, but he did a great job nonetheless. I'll be back! —GrahamFreeman

2006-01-16 15:56:54   I usually get my hair cut here. The groovy bikes still make appearances. (I've seen two different ones made primarily from bamboo, very cool). At my stage of life, a hair cut is a hair cut. The do a nice and efficient job. —RocksandDirt

2006-03-09 01:38:41   Nice barbers, decent prices. They're great with kids. For students, if you just need a regular haircut, this is the place to go. Will definately go here for my next cut. —GunIk

2006-10-07 21:32:36   I always go here because they do a great scissor cut that it I can't seem to get at any other barber shop. The prices are good and all of the barbers seem to have plenty of experience. The haircut is always adjusted if I want more taken off from
some spot and the barbers are very pleasant and accomodating even the time I didn't bring cash and had to run off to get money from the ATM.
I would reccomend this business even if Renteria had a bummer here. It could happen anywhere...and cool bikes too.—JakeDiego

2006-06-04 00:43:54   I went in the other day and I got the long haired guy. He refused to use scissors on my hair liked I asked, and did a terrible job. It looked like I cut my hair with a bowl and a weedwacker while drunk. I had to go to another barbershop and pay for a whole new haircut just to get it fixed because it looked absolutely terrible. Avoid at all costs! —JasonRenteria

2008-02-06 15:29:45   I brought my 2 yr. old Toddler to Davis Barber shop to "repair" a very bad scissor cut from a salon in Vacaville. Jeff was a miracle worker and fabulous with my little boy (who is a major squirmer) We had a great time, got a great cut, and paid a very reasonable price ($13!) My son had a blast playing with the toys and trains, and was fully fascinated by the lollipop bucket that dropped down from the sky after the cut was done. We will never go anywhere else! —Catie

2008-02-12 18:22:43   I don't think you can go wrong here. I've been to nearly every barber shop in Davis and this place is only one of two that i'd recommend (university is the other). the barber who cut my hair did a great job with a scissor cut and is one of the nicest guys you'll meet. —joel

2008-03-13 16:12:04   Went here for the first time today, good people, great job —DP

2008-04-28 16:46:20   DON'T GO HERE! I got my haircut cut here yesterday because the place I usually go to was closed and I really needed a haircut that day, horrible job. I'm not the kind of person that worries that much about how their hair looks, a simple fade is all I need, but the haircut I got at this place is quite possibly the worst I have ever gotten. I had to ask the barber, some old guy with a long beard, to fix his final cut two times it was that bad. The worst part of it all is that when he was lining up my neck in the back, he couldn't get the line straight so he kept on going higher and higher so now I have that long neck look. I highly doubt I will ever go back here again. —IntegDC4

2008-05-28 10:06:47   I have been going here for years, always a good cut. Both of my kids have gotten their 1st haircuts here. Totally recommended. Support local family businesses!!! —Aaron.Curtin

2008-08-21 21:36:29   Jeff at Davis Barber Shop is the best person in town to cut boys' hair. He gave our son his first haircut and several since then. He's great with kids—and actually gives our son's hair a bit of style. Highly recommended! —LeslieMadsenBrooks

2009-02-10 00:29:39   The other shops in Davis can't compare to the family friendly professional service that you get from the Davis Barber Shop. From boys two years of age to gentlemen in there later years the Davis Barber shop is classic in style. Take a seat in one of their chairs and you'll understand why the Davis Barber Shop is the favorite shop in town. ***** —Fuellenbach

2009-06-03 16:35:21   Although I live 17.5 miles away in North Natomas, Sacramento, I have gone to Davis Barber Shop for my haircut for several years. Jeff is absolutely the best barber I have ever had. —Jimm
