Coming from Orange County/west side of the Inland Empire, the atmosphere and size of this barber shop is amazing. Not a tiny hole wall, you really feel like you can relax and kick back while they make you look good. This is how barbershops should be, and have been for centuries. Casey is the man, called me when an opening became available, last minute! Gave advice on how to hide my receding hair lines better with stronger gel (which ended up being genius, I thought a lighter hold pomade was best, it wasnt at all) and a great haircut as well. Best value and barbershop around!

I am probably one of the most quiet/awkward customers so I cant rate how conversation goes... But I really take my mid skin fades serious. No one fades my hair locally like Pedro does. And not only that... the man is incredibly kind to everyone in his store. He has made me come back for 2+ years and I feel inclined to tip him heavily always and thats off his service alone. Everyone can cut hair there. Enjoy!

First time I stepped foot into this shop it did feel a little rough around the edges. However, when you get to know the guys in the shop they are very cool and down to earth, but most importantly they are professionals that take great pride in there craft. Predro has been my barber the last few years, he has always provided outstanding and consistent quality.

I visit with Gary once every few weeks and he always does an excellent job. Every time I come in he does exactly what I ask him to do and will sometimes even offer me suggestions on how I can achieve a certain look I want. Very grateful for his service and would highly recommend.

Oscar and all of the gentleman always do a great job with my son. They also accommodated my husband and his groomsman the morning of our wedding and everyone loved their cuts and shave. Great people, service and prices.

Review №14

I have been receiving my hair cuts here for the past year, and it has been my go to spot.To be fair, my review is in particular about Pedro because hes who I have always scheduled my cuts with, but I see a lot of customers leaving with the hair cut they really wanted from all of the other barbers.For starters, the atmosphere is pretty chill. Theres a TV and sound system in play with some really great songs from the 80s, and probably other decades too.The seats are really comfortable, and the floors are kept hair free quite frequently.The barbers have great personalities (also read great hairstyles on their heads and faces), and theyre quite personable.In my experience, my barber has also been quick but very good at giving my hair that clean but very sharp look that Im looking for in my very formal job. And his cut etiquette is so well that I can go from a cut to an event without that nasty feeling of hair on my back or face (or even loose hairs on my shirt).In addition, theres a warm shave given to the back of the head, and he has gotten the line in my hair just right every time (unlike a lot of other places that Ive visited in LA).If youre looking for a great cut for a great price, look no further than the guys at Wilsons.

I take my teenage son here when we can get an appointment. He loves the manly man atmosphere, says it makes him feel coooool. And he always gets a great cut for a great price. (Cash only)

This is a true barbershop. The decor is delightful. They even have shoe shining. Its appointment and cash only. Very worth it.

Review №20

Theres days where Ill look in the mirror and think Ive learned how to groom myself fairly decently and my hair is looking pretty good. Then I go here, get a haircut & beard trim, and see what a fool I was.You might scoff at the idea of needing an appointment to go to a barber or to get a simple hair cut or whatever, but lemme tell you something - each one of the guys here are pros, and no matter whose chair you end up in youre going to be glad you did so and youre going to be AMAZED at what they can do with a straight-edge and pair of scissors.

Review №21

I keep coming back because I always get a great haircut from Oscar. Even after I moved to Baltimore, I waited to get a haircut and when I visited the area. That should speak volumes.

Ja
Review №22

2 and half stars... Oscar did an amazing job (real good barber) but the guy who answers the phone and sets appointments Sucks.... last 6 times I’ve called to set up an appointment with Oscar the guy answering the phone tries to push me to other barbers with no regard towards my request... it’s pretty sad that the ego of one employee having no respect for something as simple as a barber request for an appointment will keep me from using this place again... owner really needs to find someone else to pick up the phones.

My usual spot (Patio) was unexpectedly closed this afternoon. I decided to drop in to Wilsons because of their positive ratings around 1 oclock and we made an appointment for 2 oclock for a haircut with a promise of 20 minutes. I came in at 1:55 and began waiting. The staff took 2 other customers that came in after me. By 2:25, I decided to leave. Do not make an appointment and reneg on it. Especially do not treat your customers differently. Ill never return here.

Review №24

Went in for a haircut. Arrived it a lull, all barbers were sitting in their respective chairs chatting. Was greeted after a minute or so and got into a chair. The environment was fair, clean and stylish, its definitely a guys shop, with the type of conversation that was being had... so to say, I dont think Id take a child in. The cut wasnt what I was looking for, even though I gave rather specific instructions... this shop was lacking on mirrors so you couldnt really see what was going on until you were handed a mirror to check it out at the end of your cut... one other important note, CASH ONLY.

Review №25

Great shop. Definitely not a place for little kids. Very affordable for the amount of care they put into the cut. Will probably be a repeat customer. Be sure to bring cash.

I have been getting my haircut here for six months. It is always fun to hang out in this shop. It is in such a historical building. The whole area has a good vibe. This place deserves 5 stars.

Absolutely the best place for a haircut anywhere around here. Totally worth the 45 minute drive from where I live. Gary is who I usually see and I always get an excellent haircut every time.

My 14 year old attended a school function after getting a Gentlemans Cut from Ian (who is personable, professional, and meticulous). Afterward, I overheard my sons generally not over-complimentary 16 year-old sister tell him My friends and I were admiring your hair cut. Wilsons customers are walking billboards. Wonderful job.

Love the old fashion Barber Shop! Always welcomed and always a great job by the barbers! Gary, Art and Eric have done excellent jobs. Would recommend them to all. Cash only.

Went to Wilsons for the first time today and was impressed. Got a haircut from Wayne who was a cool guy and did a great job. I will definitely be going back for a haircut and straight razor shave next time. Although I will try and go midweek next time the whole weekend was crazy busy for them.

Made a booking a day in advance. Very relaxing experience with Gary and a great cut. Appreciated having a true time out and not facing the mirror.

Review №33

Ive been coming here for years and they always clean me up nicely with a complimentary beer on the side. A little on the pricier side but worth it for the sense of familiarity that comes with the place.

Review №34

Super dope old school feel, they have manly ass books and a nice set up with chess available while you wait. Clean cuts. I got offered a beer, but it was within a few minutes of opening time so I turned it down. I went in as a walk in and got sat down right away. Didnt know it was cash only, but the barber trusted me to come back to get cash back. Def recommend

Very nice old school shop like when I was growing up. Retro/ rock-a-billy motif. Beverages are offered. Beer is a nice touch but I chose a Dr. Pepper at 10:00 am. If I come again at 3:00, Ill have that beer. Sam was professional, Id see him again. More Johnny Cash, less CCR.

Review №45

If you want a $10 haircut please go somewhere else. This is a mans barber shop. No safety razors here. These guys use bare steel. Beer in the fridge if thats your thing. Old school all the way. They even shine shoes. Best flat tops in Redlands.

Greatest barber shop ever! They cut my one year old sons hair. Did an amazing job. Ill be going back for myself soon.

Review №47

Real attention to detail with my cut, especially the beard. I hope someday to get a straight-razor shave here. The only minor issue is that all the barbers are so close with each other that they kind of left me out.

Review №49

Wilsons is my go to place. Whether I need a trim or want to try something new, the guys at Wilsons will go all in to get a style you desire. This is a place where youre treated like a regular and the service is low cost for the experience. When I say experience, outside of the t.v. they have on, there is a juke box and fridge with drinks (alcoholic and non-alcoholic). Its a nice complimentary setup if you have to wait, but remember to bring cash!

All the barbers that i have seen were great, till i booked a random appointment with pedro never had an appointment with him but i figured hes good, i walk in for a beard small beard trim, i told him i want about a half inch on my side burns and then fade it out and keep the front the longest length. i dont know what he was thinking, but what i got was so terrible. i will never go to this barber shop ever again. i highly recommend that you dont make an appointment with pedro but i have had good experiences with other barbers in this shop. SO WHAT IM SAYING IS PROCEED WITH CAUTION!

Walked in. Nobody said a word to me. Finally asked if I had an appointment. The dude sucked his lips at me and asked this guy on his phone to cut my hair lol it took him like four tries to get his attention! So now i am taking up his time for my haircut!!!!! I walked out. Id rather go to supercuts.

Don’t come to this place expecting to get a hair cut. I waited an hour for a haircut until someone decided to tell me that they do appointments only. So if you decide to get a haircut here make sure you find a new place that actually cares about making money. SMH!

Review №77

As my Snapchat said afterward “when you find a barber that can do a killer fade and a solid line up on the beard, you cherish that man.” I drove down from Victorville Tuesday for a get together but came early specifically to go to Wilson’s. Gary cut my hair and that man knows how to cut hair. Anytime my schedule allows I will be back to see him. Bring cash! Cards aren’t accepted.

Review №78

My husband use to go here for his haircuts until onetime he scheduled an appointment with Gary and waited for an hour until The owner finally told him Gary was on vacation. The owner left it at that, he didnt even apologize or even reschedule my husbands haircut. I forbid him from ever going here again. Terrible costumer service and in my opinion overpriced.

Walked in 5 mins ahead of time appointment was at 1 Made me wait 30 mins over to tell me its going to take 15 mins longer..... And these are the guys that are anal about making appointments. Just save your self some time and money go down the street.

Review №84

Great place to get a hair cut for boys! These guys in that dept. know what their doing. If I could rate them just for that, it would be a 5 STAR.The only thing they are absolutely terrible at is keeping their appts. ON TIME. If you make an appt. be prepared to WAIT not just the normal 15 minutes if your running behind, but its usually a 30-45 minute wait. I think what happens to is they take walk ins which ends up running into the time to the people who actually scheduled a time for a haircut!! Food for thought-if you have an appt. coming in about 10-15 minutes maybe you shouldnt take a walk in, since most appt. time have a 30 minute window time frame since most haircuts take that long.
