Manly and Sons Barber Co.

There are not many times that one can say that he got the best haircut in his life. Well once you get here and get a hair cut then this would be the place to say it.
The deign is awesome and no one can be mistaken it is the perfect men hangout kind of feeling. The dress code of the workers is just perfect to give you the awesome feeling that you are servers by professionals. The hair cut is without a flaw and the barber will question you to the exact details of the style you need and your hair allow. I would recommend to come prepared some picture of the kind of style you want.
I was served by Tony and you could feel the confidence of his work and the no mistakes approach. I would definitely going to be a regular.
They also sell high quality and not expensive hair creams, shaving creams and skin cream products so I would recommend asking for guidance and buying one.
The only issue is with parking so try to park on the upper street or cross alley.

Not just another barber shop. These guys are masters of their craft and pay such amazing detail to every haircut, trim, shave, etc.
After trying out a few other barber shops in the area, I can say that I will definitely make this my only stop from here on out.
Get service, free drinks (alcohol included), reasonable prices and superior quality will keep me coming back. I just wish parking were a little easier, but I can say that about so many other places in Los Angeles.

I had an amazing experience with Julio today. All of my cuts there have been good, but I went a little extreme this time and Julio made art of my stupid head. That whole crew can get it. Best spot in LA.

Love this place and very happy with my haircuts. Do yourself a favor and go to Junior. He’s awesome!

I stumbled into Manly & Sons not long after they opened — I think it was near or around their third week. The first thing that struck me was the presentation: plenty of space to relax, great reading material, and the offer of a complimentary beer or whisky. Because they were so new, walk-​ins weren’t a problem so service was prompt and their prices were, in my estimation, exceedingly competitive, based on the quality of service provided. In many respects, Manly & Sons seemed a little too good to be true, so I decided to reserve judgement until they had been operating for awhile.
I have been back numerous times over the past year and a half and my experiences since have not disappointed. I’ve had cuts by Tony, Paco, and Junior, with all of which I’ve been extremely pleased. Despite an obvious increase in popularity, the shop’s overall commitment to service has not abated. I am still greeted with a complimentary drink; every barber still takes his time completing his cut; and their selection of fine men’s products has seemingly increased with each visit.
But the shop made its greatest impression this past December when, after a long break, I returned for a cut. My last visit had been in February, during which I was moving from DTLA to Calabasas. While there, in the confusion of moving, I had apparently forgotten my hat. When, I arrived, Junior took one look at me and said «Hey, didn’t you forget your hat last time? You said it was your favourite.» I honestly didn’t even remember wearing a hat the last time I was there and certainly couldn’t recall missing one. Not only did Junior remember — after 10 months, mind you — but he stepped in the back and returned WITH THE HAT. It was a vintage wool Chicago Cubs had that I had purchased on my last trip to Wrigley Field, and it was indeed one of my favorites.
Even the other barbers were impressed. Granted, my positive reaction had as much to do with Junior’s good memory as it did with the peticulars of their service, but that sealed the deal for me on Manly & Sons; they made a customer for life. Now, I happily make the drive back from Calabasas to get my hair cut and it’s worth every mile.

Let me start off by how I found this place. So one morning we were running late for Las Vegas and my boyfriend needed pomade for his hair, we found this barber and they had exactly what my boyfriend was looking for.
From the outside I was not expecting the inside and the atmosphere to look and feel that good! While purchasing the pomade I had so many questions to ask them, yet again we were running on time. I just remember getting back to the car so excited to tell my boyfriend how that place. So my boyfriend looked into it.
A few months later he decided, «heck I’ll get a cut here.» We went and he had a great experience with Tony. And Tony made my boyfriend’s hair look amazing. Thanks guys!

I tried Manly & Sons on my roomie’s recommendation after several months of him pushing. It took me a while because I have curly hair that most barbers can’t deal with. But Paco was more than up to the task — he knocked it out of the park his first try and was just as solid on cut #2.
Really personable staff too – happy to have them in the neighborhood & I hope they do well, they deserve to.

Took my guys here today for a nice beard and shaving service to Prep for NYE and it was great! Such amazing service and quality for the money. Everyone was super friendly and I didn’t feel awkward as a girl sitting there waiting lol I would definitely recommend them

Great place, love the vibe, and reasonable prices! Jason totally hooked me up with just what I wanted. A short wait but I walked in without an appointment and we chatted a bit about Star Wars so time flew by fast! I live a bit away but with their awesome service I would totally make the drive out to to get fixed up here.

Fantastic cut and BBS straight razor shave. Roswell great touch, good technique. Love the old style barber shop feel. The shot was a nice treat too.

I’ve been here twice in the past month. The service in my two visit where top notch. My beard trim and hair cuts where ¹⁰⁄₁₀. Great place great atmosphere for a barbershop. Easy website to make future appointments.

This place is great. I was looking for a new place to get my hair cut and beard trimmed and came here purely on Unilocal reviews. Based on my experience, they definitely live up to the Unilocal hype.
My barber’s name is Roswell. Now like any barbershop or salon, your experience is most likely boing to be based on your barber/​stylist, not necessarily the establishment itself. So I can only speak based on my experience with Roswell and another barber there.
First off, the atmosphere is great. The way Salons cater to women… you know with all the ladies gossiping, the smell of nail polish and perm solution in the air the bright/​florescent lighting. well this is the polar opposite to that. It has a very masculine vibe. It’s woodsy/​natural lighting, it has a vintage/​throwback feel, everyone is dressed very dapper. After you sign in, the first thing they offer you is whisky. There is a tattoo parlor directly connected in the back. Can’t get any more manly then getting a shave, while drinking whiskey and getting a tattoo.
What I like about Roswell is that he’s very meticulous and takes his time. I hate getting rushed in and out of a seat. I understand the hustle that you receive at a place like Floyds 99 and it’s very hit or miss at a place like that. Most of the times it’s a miss if we are going to be honest. Roswell was/​is very professional, he took the time to give me a proper consultation, made me feel comfortable and I really liked how he took pride in his tools. I really feel like i’m getting my money’s worth.
I went in to get a haircut once when Roswell wasn’t there and got a cut from another gentleman, (forget his name) but it was just okay. It felt rushed, and the cut itself wasn’t as clean. Not bad though. Bear in mind I live all the way in North hollywood and take an Über to get to M&S’s. I almost spend more money in travel fare than I do getting a hair cut. That’s how much I like this place.
If I was forced to think of a petty, negative thing about this place. the only thing that comes to my mind is the one long couch they have in the waiting area is the most uncomfortable piece of furniture I’ve ever placed my buns. You’re basically sitting on springs. At the end of the day though, I’m just there to get a haircut, not chill on a couch while I knit a scarf, so I’m not bothered.
Seriously though, this place is awesome.

Everyone there is rad. I’m a chick going to a barber shop with a different hairstyle and request of them to begin with and the always do a great job! With attention to detail. Wish I could bro out and take back some whisky that they offer complimentary but I opt for water. Great place these dudes rule!

Moises is the pomp master. $ 32 gets you a beer & a pristine cut. It looks like I found my new go to place in LA.

Came in for a cleanup. Very cool vibe, nice guys, overall awesome spot. There’s a tattoo shop in the back as well.
I’ll be coming back for some beard maintenance soon.

I came here thinking it would be a lame hipster spot. Little did I know after i had received a haircut that would make Chuck Norris jealous I immediately sank to my knees and wept tears of pure joy, and by «pure joy» I mean «pure Jack Daniel’s». I combed my angel like haircut and automatically increased my max bench press by a 100lbs. I wiped the whiskey from my face, looked in the mirror, and in my reflection I saw him behind me.
George Washington. Looking stern and powerful. He nodded once, an affirmation. I knew what I had to do.
I flung myself from the bathroom window and my awesome new haircut literally turned me into a bald eagle, I flew over Iraq and pooped tomahawk missiles on ISIS positions, then I flew back home and turned into a 1967 Pontiac GTO and drove all night until I arrived at Pussytown
THANKS GUYS!

i haven’t even received my hair cut and all ready the experience is premium. All the barbers here look amazing with a 30’s and 40’s vibe. The skill level is very professional and i can see how much the concern is for the customer to be extremely happy with this cut. They offer water, beer for big boys and make you feel really comfortable. i would absolutely recommend this shop to everyone around the echo park area and the LA surrounding areas. Im coming back!

I go to Manly and Sons and get an undercut haircut from Parker. I had to write this review because I’m constantly getting stopped by people to ask where I got my haircut from. I’ve never had a haircut make such an impact, everyone (including me) seems to really like the cut.
Parker is a great guy and really is an artist. I just sit in the chair and let him do his thing, and when I get up it looks perfect.
Manly and Sons + Parker = Awesome!
Check him out… you won’t be disappointed.

I returned three weeks later because I’m half Greek and half Italian, and the result is greater than the sum of their parts when it comes to hair growth (among other things!)
As with my previous visit, I was very impressed with the result, but my stylist Paco deserves special mention for exceeding my expectations. I respect a man with a steady hand (hey, now, get your mind out the gutter… or not) especially considering I can’t hold a martini without sloshing gin over at least three drinking buddies, probably thanks to a daily intake of Greek coffee that would likely fell a minotaur.
Thanks to Paco, I left feeling as bold as Leonidas and luckily, also thanks to Paco’s skills, attracted several hot Persians who I found were more than gracious enough to forgive the wrongs committed by my ancestors.
Now if only I could talk Greece’s way out of debt, but alas, even the considerable beard trimming skills of Manly and Sons have limitations.

Impressive!
A couple weeks after a botched haircut from another barber, I paid Manly & Sons a visit to correct the unfortunate butcher job. I called to make an appointment, came in, sat in their very cool lounge and in no less than 5 minutes, Roswell came to get me to inspect and fix the «hair catastrophe».
First, let me describe this über cool barber shop — simply put, it is like a fusion of a gentleman’s hunting lodge/​cigar room infused with a modern L.A. hipsterness (if that is even a word). I love the dark hardwood floors and their waiting lounge that looks as dapper as all the barbers, complimentary beverage are offered while waiting either in the form of a beer, a shot or your very refreshing water…
Let’s get back to the hair.
I have to say, Roswell did an awesome job with my fixer-​upper, he is very meticulous and precise with the electric shaver, I also like that he took the time to ask and give suggestions as to what will look best after the fact… very professional indeed. It sure took a while to finish my haircut but I can’t complain, he did a fantastical job.
Overall, I highly recommend Manly & Son’s, I saw some guys came in looking like a Sasquatch and came out looking like a GQ cover model (okay maybe that was too exagge but you get the point), I also like the hair products that they use and sell, especially the hair pomade that Roswell used for my hair, cool stuff.
Everyone here is very professional, from the time you come in, sit on the barbers chair and check out, the shop is very clean with a few items for sale to keep you looking dapper.
Two Thumbs Up for Manly & Son’s Barber Co. and thanks for the awesome haircut.
