Hairs the Place

Just started going here recently and was very happy with my decision. Pam is incredibly friendly and accommodating, and she did a fantastic job with my cut. Would highly recommend for anyone in the Santa Monica area.

I have been using Pam for over 10 years. She has a really spotless shop. Pam is a professional barber. She does it all including a shave with a straight edge razor with the hot towel and warm shaving cream. I have never had a bad haircut from her. I recommend her for those who want the true barbershop experience including the good conversation.

Sweeny Todd would’ve been better. She shaved me dry w/​a straight blade.
Never. Again.

Hair’s the Place is my favorite business in all of Santa Monica. Pamela consistently gives me amazing cuts and manages to keep me laughing the entire time with her witty banter. I absolutely cannot rave enough about her incredible service. If you are looking for a hairstylist in Santa Monica, you’d be a fool to go anywhere else. Pamela at Hair’s the Place is simply the best there is.

Not impressed. The Unilocal coupon was not honored. Distracted by other customers, rushed through the cut while complaining they have to ‘be somewhere.’ My grew out funny too — not going back.

I come here all the time and Pam is the best! She does really nice haircuts and her shaves are great! This is the place.

Pam has been cutting my hair for years. She is the best and always has interesting conversation to pass the time. I recommend her for an old-​school barber experience and a professional shave.

I first went to Hairs the Place a few years ago and it is by far the best place I have been for a haircut. Pam knows what is best for you head usually before you do. I highly recommend trying this place especially if you have hard time finding a good barber or have just moved to the area.
Very comfortable atmosphere and Pam is always friendly and nice. Highly recommend this place!

This was only my second time visiting Hairs the Place, and it is now — officially — the only place I will go in Los Angeles when I start looking like Barry Gibbs (yeah, it gets that bad). For the second time in a row, I was treated to a haircut that makes Don Draper look like Donald Trump. You think I’m joking?
Pam’s got a photo on the wall of one of her clients. Look for it. He’s the handsome Italian dude standing next to his badass Ferrari (or whatever is). That guy flies in –from friggin’ Italy — every few months and stops at Pam’s because she’s the best he’s ever been to. Yep. I believe it.
This woman’s been cutting and shaping hair for over 36 years. Trust me, it shows. I’m one of those people who can’t explain what I want from my hair. It’s an almost insurmountable challenge. I usually just pull out a photo and point at it like an ape. With Pam, it was no problem. She saw what I was working with and said «sit back and get ready for the best haircut of your life.» She was right.
My first haircut with Pam lasted a good 8 weeks. I went back for my 2^nd haircut at 12 weeks (aka Flock of Seaguls territory), and it ended up looking just like the first day I set foot in her shop. She nailed it.
Go see Pam at Hairs the Place. If you don’t, well, you’re missing out on the best haircut (and shave) of your life.

The first time I tried Hairs the Place was after work, many years ago, when I worked in Santa Monica. I still go to Hairs the Place even though I haven’t worked in Santa Monica in years. My barber outlasted my job. But I still live in Santa Monica so now instead of getting haircuts weekday afternoons, I get them done on Saturdays.
Some barbers are consistently bad and others are inconsistent good, but Pam at Hairs the Place is consistently good. I doubt she knows how to give a bad haircut.
My hair has cowlicks which cause it to grow in wildly different directions. Many of my past barbers didn’t recognize that my hair with cowlicks has to be cut specially. Pam seemed to understand that and know just what to do.
I recommend Pam at Hairs the Place.

I can’t recommend Pam highly enough. She is the best barber I have ever gone to. She is meticulous about the way she cuts your hair. You literally couldn’t get a better haircut in a Beverly Hills Salon for $ 200 instead of the $ 35 she charges.
Pam gets clients from all over the world — including one of the senior executives from Lamborghini who makes it a point of seeing her everytime he is in California. She has many clients who have come for over 30 years.
Bottom Line: If you want a beautifully styled haircut, this is the place to go.

Best barber shop EVER.
Trust me, this place is awesome.
Pam gives the best hair cut in the whole city.

I am not sure what happened to all of Pam’s stellar reviews, but I wanted to be the first to rave about her service.
Pam and Hairs the Place is my go-​to barber. She always does an excellent job of cutting my hair, and I have no desire to venture elsewhere. You can tell she genuinely cares about customer service and making sure she does a job well done. It is great to have a barber who does work at a fair price, and who you can really trust with your hair. Her attention to detail is amazing, and she has a life-​long customer in me! Highest recommendation!!!
