Danny's Barber Shop - Santa Barbara, California

Hudson Hornick

I've been living in Santa Barbara for over 10 years, and I've been all over the city trying to find a decent barber shop. This is it. Old school; just three guys and three chairs.

Jonathan is my go to guy, but I've had haircuts from Danny and Alfonso as well. They all do a good job, but Jonathan gives the best consistent haircuts. From a guy who just wants a clean cut but not look military it seems stupid hard to find a good barber. But I'm spending my time writing a review about a barber shop, so there you go. Best shop in town.

One of this truly iconic barber shops in Santa Barbara, unfortunately Danny is no longer with us. I got a haircut there today buy a friendly and highly confident Barber. Only complaint is they keep raising the prices, $25 for a men's haircut just seems like a lot.

Standard men's cut is $25. It seemed everyone made appts. with Alfonso and the older gentlemen who has the first chair. I would recommend doing the same as I was a walk in and had to get cut by Matt. First thing he asked me was if I still wanted the "old man" part in my hair that I walked in with. Then he asked me "who cut your hair? did you do it yourself?". Overall I was pleased with the cut, but Matt needs to work on his professionalism and learn to filter his words.

Will not be returning. When I walked in, one of the barbers (I think his name was Sam) continued reading a newspaper. After about 5 minutes the guy that I assume is Danny asked him if he had any appointments, he checked, said no, then took me for my cut.
I prefer to keep my hair fairly long to style. When speaking with the barber I told him this and that I didn't want much taken off, and we agreed about 1/4". The haircut I received overall wasn't awful, but after taking about 3" off (as noted by my girlfriend when I got home) my hair looked nothing like what I wanted or asked for, and it was too short to style.

Very quaint mens barber shop in loreto plaza. Friendly and welcoming. Parking adequate, but may need to walk a bit to get to barber shop. They do take walk ins but best to call for an appt. Alfonso was an excellent barber and gave my father a nice haircut. Good attention to detail, and trimmed his eyebrows perfect. Danny and Stacy were also great barbers too.

I've been living in the Goleta/ Santa Barbara area for three years while attending UCSB. My first year here I would go to The "Goodland Barbershop" because it was close, that barbershop would almost always have 1.5-2hr wait and one three occasions the barber only trimmed one of my sideburns because he was so distracted with the T.V. and talking with other people.

And then a friend recommended Danny's and I'm very glad I found out about this barbershop. This is now my go to place and I always get my hair cut by Alfonso and he always does a good job and I find it easy to communicate and let him know exactly what I want. I'm not into sports and not very talkative so he talks about other general stuff and focuses on my hair, a very nice guy!

Even when I go home for the summer and don't get a hair cut for 4 months he still remembers my exact cut when I return. I also really like that you can call in and make an appointment for free, "The Goodland Barbershop" would charge an extra $10, all that money for poor service!

As long as I live in the area Danny's will have my business!

Today was my third time going here and I've been going with Stacey. Amazing haircuts! She really takes the time and puts effort into my hair. Would definitely recommend!

Great for a professional man's cut, shave, etc... neck rub. Super detail oriented. Each customer is treated with respect and has a feel like an old time barber shop in the sense that you are treated like family
