My new spot! Good company is right - I felt welcome and well taken care of. Great vibe in there. Mooch showed attention to detail and asked for my opinion multiple times throughout the cut. Fair price, you get what you pay for!
I am starting to make a thing out of trying different barbers. I started keeping a journal of best locations about 1 year ago. This was the first place I tried and I thought, I wonder if all these new barber shops are as cool and authentic as Good Company. I will say, that not many compare, there is another in North County that is great. Not many in San Diego/La Mesa/Spring Valley area. I have said it before about other shops, I DO NOT like the appointments. I want to walk in there and get a haircut. Overall great haircut and cool vibe. A bit pricey but overall great and made me want to start this review project for different barber shops
When I first walked in I was greeted with a smile and a drink. Never had that experience before in all honesty and it was really nice. After hanging out for a few minutes the barber I set my appointment with, mooch, came in and and greeted me. After talking for a few minutes we got started on my haircut. During the haircut we talked about life and it was a very nice conversation. Once the haircut was done and he triple checked with me multiple times throughout the process that I thought it looked good and I was happy, I paid and got his card to set up my next appointment with him. 10/10 would recommend
