This was my first time and it was amazing! I unfortunately didnt catch the name of the woman who cut my hair but she was excellent. Very professional but light-hearted and an amazing price for high quality. I 100% recommend if you need a haircut.

Came here for the first time the other day and it was one of if not the best haircut I have ever received. Stephanie was awesome and styled my hair better than I had imagined. Her craft and attention to detail was amazing was easily recognizable.Great Value too! Will definitely be coming back.

Stephanie paid more attention to detail than anybody ever has with my hair, and she was a lot of fun to talk to. Its a family business and they take great care in their craft - the results speak for themselves. I will be recommending Lake Area Barber Shop to everybody with hair on their head.

Geoff is the barber you’ve always wanted. He will engage with you remember all the things you’re doing/going through and on top of that you get to walk out looking and feeling fresh! It’s been about 5 years I’ve been seeing him now and it’s the only time I get haircuts like when I lived In Miami me and my son will wait till we look like cavemen to see Geoff before going anywhere else! Highly recommend.

My client was pleased with his haircut. He looked very nice when he was done. The son of the owner talked with me to get Dennis an appointment, even though it was kind of last minute. Reasonable prices, good skills, nice people.

Ive tried to get my girlfriend her lining and there and even with an empty seat, calling for an appointment or a walk in there has always been an issue or a a judgemental tone or look due to her being a female. I have felt the bad vibe and negativity and we just dont appreciate it. Some kindness and understanding would be nice!

Went in for my first time today after scheduling an appointment with Geoff. Let me say first that I’m very particular about who cuts my hair. Geoff did an **amazing** job. There’s a really good vibe in this barber shop. I can’t say enough about how well Geoff took care of me. Please don’t waste your time and money elsewhere. Lake Area Barbershop will hook it up.

Ive personally know geoff and his mom who run this shop for a better part of my life they take very good pride in there work and you feel the family owned buisness right when you walk threw there door. Geoff takes extreme pride in his work every time i get a hair cut from him he takes atleast a hour on me to make sure his work is perfect! I highly recommend geoff and his mom and lakes area barbershop for one of the best places to get a hair cut in lake county give them a shout you wont regret it.

You will never find a better shop to go to. Geoffrey and Stephanie are two of the nicest people you will ever meet. Before I learned about this shop, I drove 63 miles one way to the girl that was cutting my hair since 1994. Geoffrey is amazingly talented and makes this old man look his best. Give them a try, I guarantee you will not be disappointed.

This place is a Diamond in the ruff. Geoff is someone who truly is passionate about what he does. Your haircut will not just be another haircut to him. He will take his time to make sure you look to the nine before you leave. If you are looking to truly look good and get the right cut? Go see my guy Geoff..

Every time I get my haircut done by Geofrey or is mom I always leave there feeling very happy and satisfied. Now I understand what it’s like for women to go to a beauty salon and to enjoy themselves, Every time I go to this barbershop I feel like I am getting pampered LOL and when I come home my wife is usually happy that I don’t look like a homeless person anymore!!!

Since moving to the area a couple months ago I needed to find a new barber.Finding a new place to get a haircut can be a difficult task but I made the right decision to go to Lake Area Barber Shop. This is a great place to go; Stephanie is an awesome barber.I highly recommend this barber shop. They have a friendly staff and make you feel right at home.If I could give more stars I would.

Found this place after reading all of the great reviews on Google and it lived up to the hype. Geoff is truly an artist with the clippers and takes great passion in making you look your best. First time I went I didnt know what type of cut to get so told him to just do his thing and I was completely blown away. No haircut Ive ever had before comes remotely close to the experience I get coming here. It changed the way I look at haircuts.

This barber shop does an outstanding job. There friendly try to help everyone out with making them feel as good as they will look when they are finished cleaning you up. Geoff (one of the professionals there) cleaned me up with is precision techniques to make sure I looked great for my event I had the next day. Key to barber shops is being able to invision what looks good on a person also taking what the customers usually have done, putting them both together to make you look good. This place has exactly what they need to do it. Highly recommended!! Great job guys

The experience here has been thoroughly disappointing and I never even actually got to sit down in a chair. I called to make an appointment over a week ago and the person who I dealt with on the phone was extremely rude and short. She did not ask me what services I needed nor did she ask for my contact information. This morning I showed up for my appointment waited for nearly 45 minutes for her not to show up and for a neighboring business to come over and tell me that she would not be there today. Although I do realize that unforeseen circumstances can occur, had she taken care with me on the phone when I made my appointment and taking my information maybe she could have called me and prevented me from wasting my time.

For the past year and a half, this is the only place I will go to get my hair cut. Geoff does an amazing job with new age style cuts. Ive seen him do great with people of all ages even children. If you want a quality haircut go see geoff. He wont let you down 💯

Geoffrey does an incredible job, he takes his profession seriously, very thorough and meticulous, he truly is dedicated to making you look you your very best. I have been to many barbers, but Geoffrey is the best barber by far. I dont even need to look at the cut afterwards, I know its perfect every time!!

Geoff kills it! By far the best hair cut servive I’ve had. This isn’t just a cut and out the door kinda place. His attention to detail is on point and he makes sure not just your hair is done right, but your beard, neck, eyebrows, etc. Dude has talent and takes pride in his work. The place has an old school feel, old school pride, and old school service. 100%!

The woman who cut my hair did a great job. I had shaggy long hair that Id like to slick back regularly. I asked her to trim it and she did it perfectly. She made me look like Johnny Depp from the movie Donnie Brasco. Than she even trimmed my goatee for free. Well worth the $20 i was charged. Aswell as the tip I gave her. I recommend this place for the skills they have.

This barber shop is hiding in a small mall behind the Chase Bank on Lake St in Antioch.Stephanie did a wonderful haircut in a very efficient time. She uses clippers for the most part and touches up with a scissors. Nothing fancy and great barbering with a reasonable price.I made an appointment and glad that I did. There were two others waiting while I was in the chair and a third made a walk-in appointment for later in the day.This says something about a good business.

If youre looking for THE new-age and old-fashioned barber of the area, look no farther than Geoff. First time in today, he used clippers to do a very methodical fade and cleaned my lines up with the straight razor. There could be a wait, but its worth it! Going back whenever Im in town.

Review №58

A great old Barber shop! The new owner is very nice and gives a fantastic haircut! You need to call ahead for an appointment, but its worth the effort. You can walk in, but you might have a bit of a wait if you do, its a very old shop with only 2 chaors. One used by the old owner that is there part time.

I had just gotten a terrible haircut that day, and so I went here for the first time to see if they’ve could fix it. Geoff not only did a fantastic job, but he also cared about how my hair looked rather than getting me out the door as soon as possible. Will be going here from now on.
