RARE BARBER CO. - Arcata (CA)

5 /5 Angelica K.V: Ive been looking for a barber for my man and a barber who actually cuts his hair good. We finally found someone! Gio is amazing and so talented at what he does. He takes his time and really listens to the client on what they’re wanting! He made my man feel very comfortable with him since my man only spoke Spanish:)

1 /5 Adam Bones: I literally never leave reviews but in this case something must be said. I came back about 10 minutes after my original haircut to ask for him to take a little more off the top. The Barber looks me straight in the eye and says " no, I dont want to cut your hair anymore"... Absolutely flabbergasted, I asked " are you serious?" He says yeah because our energy is off and theres all these issues.... Check this out ...First of all, Ive never had a haircut where the barber wont let me look at the mirror at least periodically throughout the cut. About halfway into the cut, I asked to look at it and see where we are at. And then towards the end of the cut I asked one more time to look at the back. Apparently that qualifies as a bunch of issues to warrant the barber saying I dont want to cut your hair anymore and refusing to fix the cut. This shows a complete lack of professionalism and even less character. Would absolutely not recommend.

1 /5 allan mercer: If you call ahead and ask if they have walk-ins they say yes and tell you to come again the next day, just to tell you there booked and there leaving early. Either not enough barbers or just bad scheduling either way overall parents is up of a high class Barber just to be let down and then treated as if you don’t matter after now three times going into the barbershop. Trying to get a hair cut to be turned away 3 times.

5 /5 Denzel Simuel: My man Gio gave me one of best cuts ive ever had up in humboldt. Clean, percise , quick and did I say clean! Definitely recommend him if you trying to leave the shop feeling yourself. 2nd Review: Once again Gio has shown he goes above and beyond to make sure your cut is exactly what you want. Overall experience is exactly what I need from my barber.

5 /5 Micah Marrocco: Gio have me looking good! I went in look like a mountain man and left ready for a GQ photo shoot. Good dude, good conversations and he really takes his time and gets you done just right. Gio just became my go too guy. And I got in on a Sunday? Cant beat that!
