Famous Fades

Only barber shop I go to in town, went to another spot when I first moved here and was nearly offended when they charged me over $ 30 for a fade and a wash, randomly saw this shop when I was driving home one day and decided to give it a go and I’ve been back everytime and will continue to go back

Ain’t going back to this place. Got recommended by the wife of one of the barbers so I went. Once I entered I got mad dogged then was told if I had an appointment .I tell him if I need an appointment he then says naw but we are booked for today. There were only two people ahead of me. Another barber then tells me if I wanted I can wait until 7. I arrived at 5 lol it’s all good I’m glad I didn’t get my hair cut there. Ended up going somewhere else where they gave awesome service and great haircut. I guess they didn’t want my money haha good luck with this place I already told many people about this experience.

I rate this place one star because I couldn’t rate them any less. I came in here and they didn’t even greet me until I asked when wast turn. After 2 people going ahead of me who go there first which I was fine with, the barber went ahead and let his buddies go ahead of me too. After 2 ½ hour wait I left. I will never return here. Horrible customer service. Ghetto place.

Worst haircut Ive gotten in my life so far i recommend Axis barbershop down the road on Northgate were they actually care on how the haircut looks on you Niel stick to construction bro

Nice shop

HIGHLY Recommended. As a owner of barber shops my self. I would highly recommend this place. I was driving in the area needed a hair cut. I stopped rite in. All the guys there were professional and very good people. I’m also in the hair business so I can assure you that all the barbers there know how to cut hair. I’ll be back again when I’m in the area. Great place and a fair price.

Stopped by this shop for the 1^st time because I was in the area and my teenage son needed a cut. From the outside the place looked nice. Once we walked in there were 3 barbers working and listening to inappropriate music. They looked up at us and NOT ONE of them had the decency to greet us or ask if we had an appointment. They continued cutting and talking (That really burns me up). We sat down for approximately 5mins… I wanted to give them the benefit of the doubt. They treated us as if we weren’t there. Needless to say we walked out. The least these young people could do is greet potential clients AND turn the disrespectful rap music down while women (with OR without children) are there. I don’t want to hear that profanity, gangster talk and definitely do not want my son forced to listen to that mess. Also no one wants to hear the «gutter talk» that goes on by these young guys. Who you slept with, what you did and details of the young woman’s anatomy. Young men PLEASE take into consideration that a business should be ran as such. If you want to be successful you must be professional. There are people of all walks of life that could support your business if you would only step your game up and show more respect. Don’t limit your clientele. Consider the Clergy, CEO’s, attorney’s and physicians and law enforcement… they’re people too who could use your services and refer other clients IF you would show some professionalism.

This should be a zero star! I waited for a haircut and was told it would only be a minute– instead both barbers were just chatting with theyre (customers??? Friends maybe) and not even cutting the hair– I was also given the wrong wifi login– how was the hair cut? I don’t know got tired of waiting and left — inconsiderate in my opinion

Just moved to the area and Neil hooked me up with a fresh fade! Lots of TV’s to watch the game! And they worked me in with no appointment! I will definitely be back!!!

Clean place! Just not suitable for kids coz of how people talk. Daniel got me hook up with a clean fade. Look for daniel.

Place is definitely not suitable for women and their children. Staff is incredibly disrespectful and the place was not clean. We were seated on a couch and my youngest picked up a swisher from the couch. Definitely not going back.

I’m a real estate broker and I need to stay freshly cut all year round. I call and set my appointment ahead of time so I don’t have to wait. Aoron has cut me and my twin brothers hair since 2009 before Aoron and Mike bought their own shop. I highly recommend this barber shop to everyone. They should get more support from our community.
Call ahead and set an appointment so you won’t have to wait.

Took my 2 year old in for his first hair cut. They were very un-​welcoming and all the barbers acted as if they did not want to help me. One guy MADE what I think was the guy that cleans up the shop cut my sons hair. Who ever was the guy in charge was very rude. I had mentioned that, that was my first time being a patron of a barber shop & my friend had referred me. They made me feel VERY un-​comfortable the entire time. It also sounded like they were laughing at me when I was walking down the stairs to leave with my kids. I also got my 3 y/​o nephews hair cut, he got his cut within the first 5 mins. I waited at least 15 – 20 mins while everyone argued about who was going to cut my sons hair. The overall hair cuts were of quality & I was satisfied. But the customer service was WACK! I will never return back to that place. HORRIBLE experience. They are not good with small children at all.

Please do not bring your children or your wife here. Owner and most employees showed NO RESPECT for me or my 8 year old son with the cursing (F bombs). I grew up in Gardenland & Northgate running in these streets and lived wild at times and used talk like this around my friends when I was a teen but I was taught to keep it clean and have the up most respect for Women, children, and elders. It was very disappointing to hear this type of language with no professionalism, Sorry but I will not be back!

I know the owner of FAMOUS FADES, Young MiKe. I knew of the old location, never went in. I decided to stop by the new location. It was neat, clean, very professional environment, new furniture and accessories, and new paint. It was far from a hood/​ghetto barbershop. There weren’t people hanging out, everyone there was employees and customers. I was impressed that their suite (upstairs) is handicap accessible.
This morning I took my 6 year old cousin to get his hair cut. Neal is somewhat new to the FF team. He attempted to cut my cousins hair to the best of his ability. There was a small mishap when he tried to cut a star. The owner stepped in and corrected Neals failed attempt. I was slightly mad about the length of time we were there and the star incident but it was dealt with in a professional manner. In the end, my cousin was super juiced about his cut and I was satisfied. I WILL DEFINITELY BE RETURNING TO FAMOUS FADES

Ray was the first guy to hook me up with a fade there and I’ve been going back ever since. It’s good to have a barber check in with u cuz it let’s u know they want ur business! I definitely would recommend this place to anyone who wants a quality fade

I have been a client for over 6 years and keep coming back year after year!
Talented staff with excellent skills. Highly recommend to anyone looking for a shop that will increase their swag.

This place looks cool on the outside and when u go in it seems cracking but the barbers are not on there job.
I waited for two and a half hours for a cut that I never even got. I walked in spoke to one of the guys and he said it wouldn’t be long. What he didn’t tell me is that he only does regulars and not walk ins and never Once in the entire time I was there did he even bother to ask anyone else to help me out.
It wasn’t until I got fed up and told Jim what the fuck, then he tells me he only does regs. The only reason I waited so long was cuz my wife was days away from giving birth and wanted me clean cut.
So if ur looking for a walk-​in place then don’t go there. Now if u got a reg barber there then ur good to go. I miss my New York barbers they know how to cut and know that every client is important.
I would give this place 0 stars but this app won’t let me.

My first hair cut in Sac-​town and boy was it mediocre, avoid this ghetto place like the plaque. Their barbers don’t live up to the name of the business.

Best barbers in Sac.
Cleanest shop in Sac too that also offers LCD’s everywhere, air hockey, and arcade machines. All the barbers and owners are cool folks. Ask for my personal barber, Josh. I used to go to him when he was at Paradise (Calvin’s) off Watt and followed him all the way to Natomas. He’s that good…
Try to schedule appointments because drop-​in wait time is pretty long.
Might seem pricey for some, but you get what you pay for.
