Fantastic experience: Excellent barber, clean shop and an amazing storyteller. Worth every cent!
Fantastic experience: Kenneth cut my hair and the fade and beard came out Fiyah. I found the shop on Google by my hotel. I’m glad I did. I’d come back for sure.
Fantastic experience: My guy Trel is one of the best groomers in LA! Another year and trel consistently provides the cleanest cut. I do a complete shave with a mustache. If precision is what you are seeking, then you've found the right place.
Fantastic experience: Best Barbershop in Los Angeles hands down been going for the last 8 years. Exceptional haircuts and service.
Fantastic experience: Gigz got me right 5 stars would go back
Negative experience: For over 6 years, I've dealt with Trell Jones' foul, moth ball-smelling breath, and while he's good at cutting hair, he'll use your connections and skill sets for his own personal gain, embarrass you in front of other shop patrons, and let his employees disrespect you. Also, be prepared to be potentially spit on by Trell, as his spit is constantly flying out of is mouth during the cut. In my opinion, Trell is a discriminatory clout chaser who will cowardly text you an hour after cutting your hair to let you know he can no longer cut your hair because it "hurts" his shoulder. I confirmed with Trell via phone today that he specifically does not want to cut my bald head due to a “hurt” shoulder and despite his "hurt" shoulder, he's happy to keep cutting other bald patrons. He also claimed to me he’s no longer providing the service I’ve been booking for years, but his schedule still reflects availability for booking through next year. I highly suggest you find another barber to invest in that you will get the value for what you’re spending without potentially being discriminated against. If anyone reading this has a similar experience, please feel to contact me directly, as I’ve already started legal proceedings against Trell Jones and Fade U for his alleged discriminatory conduct.

Fantastic experience: Really great Haircut and Service! Definitely check it out if you’re in the Area!
Fantastic experience: Trell did a stellar job. I just got my first haircut from him and all I can say is I HIGHLY recommend his work. We had a great conversation and he already made me feel like I’ve been a client for a while. I’ve been in the market for a new barber and I’ve been weary since I have a unique hair texture. But he easily adapted and gave me a SOLID cut. Will definitely be going back!
Fantastic experience: Loving the new look! The haircut gave me a fresh vibe — exactly what I needed. Thank you Jalisa!

Fantastic experience: Trell is one of the best out there. Consistently the best haircut and lineups I’ve received since moving to LA. So glad I was able to finally find a barber that gives me the exact cut I’m looking for every time!
Fantastic experience: Barbershop is super professional and a nice atmosphere if visiting from out of town. I walked in and had Jay, clean haircut and I would definitely come back for another when visiting LA.
Fantastic experience: Kenny cuts my hair every week! Does a great job fast always on time and consistent. Everyone in the shop is hilarious always a fun experience!
Fantastic experience: I’ve been coming here every Friday for 4 years straight for a haircut. This barbershop is the best barbershop in LA. The fades are blended and sharp no matter who you go to. If you care about your hairline there’s no other place you should be besides FADEU. They’re professional, attentive, and genuine dudes.

Fantastic experience: A1 black owned barbershop fade U got 10/10 service, energy , engagement, and vibes! S/o Kenny! “BUCKY” for the fresh fade!!!
Fantastic experience: Jay is amazing, she cut my hair the first time time a emailed it. She listened to me and asked questions. I will be back when I’m in town!
Fantastic experience: Amazing! Great atmosphere wonderful friendly professional barbers. (open Mondays!) and my son is on the spectrum it’s a nightmare to get his haircut (Not Anymore Thanks to Gigz See y’all again soon
Fantastic experience: Took my 2yr here as a walk in. He was cut by Jay. I showed her a picture for the inspo and she executed it perfectly. Normally when i take him somewhere they either complain that he’s too young so they’ll just give him a regular cut with no style because they assume he’ll move too much. She was patient with him because he is very ticklish. She wasn’t rough with him and very precise. I definitely will be returning back to her everytime i need my son’s haircut. For the work she did i think the price is very affordable. The pics are to show you the day before he got his haircut and right after. So glad I decided to stop by
Fantastic experience: I showed up as a walk-in and Jay took care of me, cut off my locs of 5 years. Everyone in the shop was super friendly and professional. The shop is very clean and they keep a good vibe going. I’m very satisfied with my cut and the service I got. I’ll definitely come back when im in the area and in need of a cut. Much love! ✌
Negative experience: I went in for a haircut and waited about 20-30 mins. Once I was seated, I asked for a taper fade with my hair on top cut down to a 1 1/2. After cutting my hair, she insisted on a shampoo, which was a quick and easy wash without conditioner. Took maybe 2-3 minutes. The fade was mediocre at best and the shampoo was as simple as washing your hands, and I didn’t ask for it. She failed to tell me that the shampoo would be $20!! So, I left being charged about $70, but after hesitation it was lowered to $65. $65 for an awful haircut and a 2-3 minute wash!? Robbery.
Fantastic experience: Jay is amazing warm, personable, and makes you feel totally at ease, almost like Southern hospitality. I go weekly, often looking a mess, and always leave feeling gorgeous. She’s incredibly talented, efficient, and detail-oriented. I appreciate how flexible she is with scheduling, and her pricing is great especially for being right off Hollywood. Her enhancement work is so good, I no longer even think about getting a hair transplant. Highly recommend her professionalism and skill I’ll keep coming back even if I move out of Hollywood. She is basicallly like family.
Fantastic experience: She's the best barber in LA. I want my hair done certain way , and she definitely pulled it off. Thanks J
Fantastic experience: Quick fast and friendly! Also my girl Jay got me right! Thank you all for your amazing service!
Fantastic experience: Best barber shop in LA!!! Found on google and took a shot after using many different places, Jay hooked me for life. The atmosphere alone makes it worth going. The people are amazing and friendly. Barbers are meticulous about cutting hair. They even straight razor. Prices are well below the value of the service you receive. Best place to get a haircut. Owner is a fantastic person. Don’t miss out.
Fantastic experience: Excellent barber who has been a skilled entrepreneur for 20yr+. Haircuts are decently priced and service level is above average.
Fantastic experience: Trell provided me one of the best barber experiences I’ve ever had in Los Angeles. You can tell he has tremendous experience, and his attention to detail really shines as he demonstrates his talents in the barbershop. I’m coming back for sure.

Fantastic experience: Trell is great, I went here for an undercut touch up and he did an amazing job for a good price. Would come back!
Negative experience: Unprofessional business. Do not come here. They are mad disrespectful and trashy. The way they treat people is absolutely disgusting. This "Buisness" is bringing the community down. They need to just pack it up and quit.
Fantastic experience: Fire barbershop. Trell is a genius. 25 years in the game and can get you out the chair in less than an hour. Definitely a gem in Hollywood. If you’re visiting or a local, no questions asked
Fantastic experience: If you're searching for a barbershop with a welcoming vibe, this is the place to be! The atmosphere is inviting, and the barbers are friendly and skilled. The owner brings great energy that makes every visit enjoyable. My barber, Bucky, consistently delivers a phenomenal cut, never failing to impress. Whether you want a classic or modern style, he nails it every time. Highly recommend this spot for a fantastic haircut and a great experience!
Fantastic experience: I love Fade U barbershop. I’ve been going here for 4+ years and between Trell and Kenny they always have me feeling handsome and confident because the cuts are so fresh (and affordable)! They aren’t only expert barbers but are extremely personable and communicative. They always work with my schedule and are the most reliable guys in town. If you aren’t getting your haircuts here MAKE THE SWITCH, or if you’re looking for a new shop, these are your guys.

Fantastic experience: Great friendly service from the moment you step in the place, everyone greets you and thanks you for coming in. They’re precise and gentle with the clips! I’m usually not one to try a new spot but I’m glad I did and will def be coming back.

Fantastic experience: I'm from NYC and have been looking for a barber for over 6mos. Found it! This place is so great, from the staff to the atmosphere! Best haircut in LA.
Fantastic experience: Hands down the best barber I’ve experienced in the last 6yrs of living in LA. Trell pays sharp attention to detail and has the skills to execute whatever you request. My waves haven’t been this wavy and my line up hasn’t been this crispy in years. Something I can’t help but acknowledge is the grow back, after a couple days my cut is still in place and my hair is healthier than before. If you’re thinking about getting a cut at fade U CONGRATULATIONS , you’ve struck GOLD.
Fantastic experience: Just moved to Los Angeles and Kareem took care of me. The shop is clean, friendly and it’s in a good location. I recommend anyone new to LA to go to this barbershop.
Fantastic experience: I've lived in the area for about 12 years now, and I always saw this barbershop while driving down highland. But today, I decided to walk in, and Kareem took care of me. Even though my hairline is disintegrating. I left the shop looking like mr GQ. He hooked me up with an even cut, taper and beard line up. Right in time for my sisters wedding.

Fantastic experience: Great barbershop! Always impressed by the top quality haircut, friendly staff and tidiness of the shop… This one time the barber saw that I was thirsty cus I waited in line for a lil bit, gave me canned Liquid Death water for free without me asking. They don’t just have great barbers, they have great human beings too!
Fantastic experience: Listen I’ve been coming to this guy since he first got to LA he’s always in amazing spirits and always has a joke. Just a few days ago I lost my big brother and to make myself feel better I came to my favorite barber. Maybe you you need a laugh, or some advice on uplifting your spirits or maybe just an old fashion hair cut. Either way You can find all that at Fade U... Thanks Trell! ✊

Fantastic experience: I was a walk in and needed a haircut being from out of town and my man made sure to come through in the clutch.

Fantastic experience: I've not been in California a long time, but I wanted to find my first guy. Here is a JAZZ CLUB a church and a barbershop.
