“ I get my hair cut by Anthony and he never disappoints. Everyone in the shop is super friendly to everyone and Anthony is always super personable and every time I’m there we always have great conversation instead of that awkward silence you get at other places. I always look forward to coming to Pappy’s to get my hair cut :) 11/10 recommend ”

“ I have been coming to this barbershop for years and I can tell you there is no barbershop better than this one in San Diego! Although I have my favorite barber, my boy Pat always taking care of me, my favorite thing about this barbershop is that you can’t go wrong with any of the barbers here. They will all take very good care of you with the crisp perfect cuts. So if your favorite is not in that day and you have a hot date, you want to clean up, no worries because they got you. Check them out...you won’t regret it! ”
“ 5 stars! Acacia was my barber for 2 visits and she did an amazing job both times. Her attention to detail is impressive, and she truly listens to what you want. The cuts were perfectly executed and exactly what I asked for. She's professional, friendly, and made me feel comfortable throughout the entire experience. The barbershop atmosphere was clean, welcoming too with refreshments and retro vibe. Acacia clearly takes pride in her craft, and it shows in the results. I've finally found my go-to barber and will definitely be returning for all my future cuts. Highly recommend booking with her if you want a quality haircut from someone who knows what they're doing! ”
“ I’ve been coming to Pappys for over 3 years now and have loved it. At first I’d do any barber available, but I got paired with Rene and have stuck with him since. He’s amazing and does me good every time! ”
“ Nikki (Nicole?) gave me the best haircut I've had in years. I asked how long she's been cutting hair and she said around 15 years. I like that. I can tell how confident she was with the buzzers, comb, the sharp scissors next to her fingers, I know she is a pro. She was also super connective and also the shop is clean, bright and welcoming. Best Mens Haircut I've ever had for sure. I felt pampered with the lotion, straight razor and a hot towel at the end. Thanks for the experience Nikki! ”
