We were originally trying to get into a different location, but they got held back and sent us here. We were promised that wed still be first in the wait list and guess what, we were! So it started out great! Then David helped my very nervous son (hadnt had a real haircut in over 3 years) get a gentlemans cut! He was very patient with my son, complimented him, and simply did a great job!Outside of my experience, one of the people that I saw trying to get to the other place too, also ended up here and was en by someone right after us. So Id say this place really does their best to make sure everyone leaves with the best experience! Highly recommend!

Best place weve found, they always cut my Teen sons hair exactly like they want... which if you have a teen you know that is hard to find! Theyre more expensive, we typically go to Haircuts Plus because they do a decent job for a good price. But GAB is the best by far.

Youll get a good haircut at a reasonable price. They are professional and you can get a good cut from any one of the many barbers they have.

They did an amazing job on all four of my boys haircuts.

Amazing quality haircuts worth the price, its better to book online than walk in.

Exceeded expectation. Very popular with a comfortable atmosphere. Only downside is a long waitlist.

Great service! Took my son for a cut and the barber not only made my son feel comfortable in his chair but gave him an excellent cut! So thankful for this place, its nice to have some normalcy during these ridiculous times. 🇺🇸

1st time. Not last. Whole experience first rate and great haircut. Lots of compliments.

Today, Lori (hopefully I spelled that correct) took me in and gave me a Faux Hawk cut as asked and I’m extremely satisfied with the outcome. My Proper cut was finished off with a neck and shoulder massage which definitely felt great along with my confident “new look” thanks again and I will definitely be coming back to see Lori! “God Speed!”P.s. Thank you for blending in my beard!!

Staff is always kind and great. Always get a good cut from this location!

Cam always hooks it up proper!

We usually go to the Friant or clovis location but decided to book with this location and big mistake. The service that we received was not good at all and the girl that cut my sons hair had a bad attitude and didnt even do the cut I asked for. Will definitely not be visiting this location again.

Best place that I know of for great haircuts.Sometimes the wait is long but deffinetly worth the wait.Bee there about 5 times and have had awesome results.Nice clean place and courteous, proffesional staff always.

The staff is friendly and the online waitlist is awesome. My son is sensory sensitive and Paul was wonderful with him. The price is right for the service and my kiddo loved the lollypop at the end! :)

Alicia is friendly, professional and cuts your hair exactly the way you want it! I visit her once every 7-12 days! Keeps you fresh! Does great skin fades, sanitizes and is fun.

Abraham gave a mediocre at best haircut was quite slow and had me leave with a lopsided haircut. Had to go back and ask to be fixed. This was at the Somerville location.

Always get a good cut here. Very friendly barbers. A little expensive. They should definitely reduce their prices as long as they arent offering beard trimming.

When you have six chairs and only three barbers and there is an hour long wait list? Well that says to me that the shop is not being professionally run. No one should have to wait an hour for a hair cut. I go to sports clips now. For a few bucks more I get a shampoo, scalp massage and a hot towel wrapped around my face.

The Great American Barbershop did a great job! They were very accommodating and well priced.

Lisa at the Sommersville location is just the worst when it comes to service. If I was the owner there I would be ashamed to have someone like her as part of my staff. I showed up for a haircut before they were closed and had been on the waitlist for hours. I literally stood outside knocking for 20 mins to be let in because I got a text to go in. The door was locked before closing and when the guy came out Lisa told him my hair couldn’t be cut and I was next on the list while 2 other guys inside were after me on the list. Lisa I’m sorry that your having a bad day or just hate life but please don’t take that out on others. Your an embarrassment to barbers everywhere. Get another job somewhere else if your not happy where you are.

This is my favorite place to go. I’ve been coming to this location for a few years now and never have a problem. Ashly is my homegirl and ALWAYS hooks it up. Paul is also one of my favorites. Love them both!

Always a great experience. Love the online waitlist option.

Friendly staff, excellent service. Found a home

Amazing atmosphere, and great barbers. They listen to you and have no problem making any kind of small adjustment to your liking. The massage is the best part!

Great service and cuts especially from lisa!

Thought I would give 4 stars only because youre to commercialized, sorry Im old school, but just couldnt. Staff are friendly Matthew was great. Gave really good shoulder rub with the vibrator. Something you dont have with barbers anymore. (Old school).😀but sign in or log in on the phone

My son came in and asked for a 0 on the sides and 3 on top. He had a fade that grew out and literally the barber did a bowl cut! No fading no nothing!!!! I was so upset I asked for the owners number because we are regulars there and they said they dont do that!!!!

Im not sure where these negative reviews are coming from. I went in on three different occasions before dropping a review and every occasion was pleasant and I was pleased with the service. This last time I went Adam did an outstanding job with my fade. Not everyone does the correct trimming around the ears, & its difficult to fade from the skin, but this guy did a good job with it. Highly recommend this barber shop quite pleased.

Fantastic place and quality work. I was looking for a good barber shop since my old barber retired. I tried the big chain shops, but they never were consistent. Each time I come here I get a good quality haircut, and Im always treated very respectfully.

They do a great job here. The line can get pretty long since they only have a few chairs so make sure to get in the wait list on the website.

Husband got his hair cut here. They did a great job!

Best barbershop in town. Ashley is awesome. All the employees are awesome. Cool environment, clean and friendly.

I have been here 4 times now and have left with an excellent haircut each time, even with 4 different stylists. The place is clean and open. There can be a bit of a wait if you walk in. I suggest getting on the waitlist on their website before driving in to get an idea of how long your wait would be. Highly recommended.

Everyone was very friendly. The shop decor is very trendy and vibe of the shop seems like it wants to honor the barber culture popularized by the Scumbag Barbers. I enjoyed that very much, the cuts however are a different story. I sat anxiously waiting to see whod draw my name from the list. I dont want to drop the name of my barber. But his skills were very poor when it came to barbering. I asked for a skin mid fade, and told him I comb a contour. His fade was atrocious. I have very visible steps and there are some parts of my hair that were left uneven. It honestly looks like a 2 week on the job barber cut my hair. It might as well have been a super cuts haircut. When I asked him to style it, he didnt comb it in a way that even remotely resembled a contour! This left me convinced he didnt know what he was doing. My barber there might be good at some typical suburbanite haircuts, but when it comes down to true traditional barbering, not even close. In short the great American barbershop left me thinking it was anything but great and definitely lacking in real barbering skills.

Decent place. Quality of hair cut depends on who is cutting. Have had excellent and poor cuts. Long waits at times. Stylists take up to 40 minutes on a single cut! Even a a childs cut! Overall a good place though... just have to know who to avoid.

Friendly staff and great haircuts! Our son has special needs and does not do okay getting a haircut, but the professional staff at GABS is always willing to take on the challenge of cutting his hair and it looks good even though hes a mover. I do not look forward to haircut days but GABS gets it done!

This is the place to get a haircut and/or shave! This isnt the kind of place where you sit down and the stylist gives you the 1 size fits all haircut; here, you get what you want! The atmosphere is on point for men, from the wood slab bench tops and tool boxes to the cool motorcycles they usually have on display. The barbers are just as cool as the shop itself, usually the owner is hanging around rapping with all the customers. If this place sold beer, forget about it! Ive been to tons or barbershops from the raggedy old school places to the high end salons, just looking for someone to cut my hair the way I want it cut. No luck until I found this place. Been coming here for about a year now and refuse to go anywhere else. Thanks guys!

Great experience - thanxs to the staff

Lisa Jean does a great job, a true professional.

Been going here for haircuts since theyve opened and I have never got a bad haircut. Every barber does a great job. I recommend the shop to all my friends and family and they have nothing but positive things to say.

Awesome experience here, I was a walk in and was seated within minutes. They are quick and know exactly what to do. $21 for any cut, straight razor neck shave and a neck massage. I would recommend them to anyone that wants a expensive styled cut at half the cost.

Absolutely the best! I used to go to great Clips and supercuts. Then I decided to go here. I met Ty and showed me what a proper haircut was. I will never go anywhere else again. I have had 4 different guys cut my hair and they all have lots of talent. Best money you will spend.

Went to this shop told the girl I wanted a tapper and a trim. I guess she didn’t understand what I wanted she cut my hair way too short. Didn’t blend my tapper in right and left my hair choppy all around. And when I told her if she can blend my sides in right she cut my hair even more. So now my hair is long from the front and reallly short on the sides I even have patches missing in my hair because the hair thinner she used. Over all I am really not satisfied at all with the experience and the overall haircut it self don’t get me wrong it was a nice shop but was not worth the 22$ I paid. Very disappointed and now my week ruined great.

Havent been there yet. However i was refereed by a friend (who doesnt have a beard) and Im curious on how well they do beard trimming/shaping there? Only did the 3 stars becuase my friend spoke so highly of it and it just looks like a cool place to get a haircut.

All three of my boys come here. My oldest used to like Sports Clips, last week he got the best haircut ever here at Great American. He is converted.

Love this place! Gotta drive a bit. But my buddy Jacob is amazing! Great atmosphere as well!

Great place for hair cut. coming here for 3 years now. Good team of barbers. Entertaining to watch them working in mechanic shop like hair cut saloon.

Enjoyed this barbershop and David was great, friendly, and helped tell me info about the area. New to Fresno and definitely going back to this place again!!!

Michele was great! Very professional, attentive and did a great cut. The Owner let me in it of the cold, so I guess hes cool too. Ha ha

Absolute nightmare! A local recommended I try this barber on vacation. Huge mistake. I ended up going to a sports clips to attempt to fix what they did.The staff has no reception so be prepared to sign yourself in if youre a walk-in. There was no explanation who I was waiting for or how long I could expect to wait. Two employees finished with clients and smoked and joked then disappeared into the back or on break at 4pm while I waited. I shouldve walked away then.The person who cut my hair didnt understand basics about how to give a clean modern mens haircut. The fade was sloppy. My hair was blatantly uneven by the time I gave up and just wanted to escape. It got so bad I was at the point where I had to say I want you to take scissors and cut here, as I pointed at my head. And the person cutting my hair just went to town with clippers instead of doing what I asked. I dont think they understood the difference between thinner and shorter.Seriously, I had a better experience getting my hair cut in boot camp. Go elsewhere. Now.

Great service. Very friendly. Great haircut for my son and me! Short wait. Love the feel of this place! Solid wood wall at the back adds to the stylish appeal!

Took my 6 year old son to get a hair cut last night arriving at approximately at 645pm . After a long day and waiting for his time at AFTER 8pm they declined our service because they cant cut kids hair if they are unwell. My son was up after his bedtime waiting, he was tired not sick. Thanks for the giant waste of our time. Dont waste your time here.

Ive been coming here for cuts for about a year and have had five different barbers cut my hair. Every single one of them did a great job cutting my hair. Every time Ive gone in ive been greeted and helped. I have no idea, as stated in other reviews, where and why these one star reviews are coming from.

My son recommended I give it a try, and from the moment I walked I knew this was the place for me. The atmosphere is great, and the staff know what they’re doing. No cookie cutter haircuts here, they are true pros at what they do.This is the only place I’ll be going to from now on!

Always a great time! Professional but down to earth in the right mix. Staff knows their stuff and always willing to answer questions regarding the cut, beard trim or products. They made a lifer outta me, to the point that I buy all my male friends gift cards from there on their Bdays. Highly recommend

Excellent place for a trim

Great place for a fresh cut. Use the check in service online

This location is a lot more mellow compared to the Clovis and Herndon location. Great service & I love their check in service online that is posted on their website and gives customer a heads up on wait time for all three locations!!

The staff is beyond skilled. they sure know and love what they are doing. great atmosphere

Walked in to buy some shaving accessories. looked around, stood at the counter for 5 to 7 minutes making constant eye contact with the barbers. No one said a word. No one said,be with you in a minute. I eventually walked out. Pretty damn frustrating.

I liked my haircut and the price is hard to beat. Would give 5 stars but they were understaffed the day I went and had to wait a really long time. I would go back though.

Immediately felt uncomfortable like I was being judged right off the bat. The lady covered in tattoos was one of the rudest people I have ever come across. It was early in the morning and she clearly didnt want to be there . Every time I would try to ask a question she would shoot it down immediately with a quick one word reply then when I said I was leaving because of how rude she was the other hairdresser started giggling and laughing instead of asking what they could do. Horrible customer service !Very very rude and I will never be coming back!

Amazing place really chill, good vibes here love it i got my first haircut here and it wont be my last i will be back soon.

Great shop, old school approach but with a modern twist. Very clean, nice shop. These guys know what they are doing, great hair and beard products too.

Really nice haircut! Wish the people would talk more tho.

They did a pretty good job on my sons hair. We called in to see what the wait time was and the guy said 20 mins. When we got there it was actually a 56 min wait. He said that it was going to be less than that. We waited 30 mins and all the barbers were full with new people and we still had 2 people waiting next to us, so we left and went to a different one. Dont go here unless you check in on line before hand and show up a few mins before youre up or if you dont mind waiting.

Theyve always done me right. Check in system is a bit cumbersome for me, most people probably like it. Never had a bad haircut there.

Visited about a week ago the look of the barbershop was great very clean this is why I gave it 2 stars however my haircut was awful left harsh lines in my head wasnt much of a blend there , also the dude cutting my hair wasnt even a barber but a cosmetologist had I known this before sitting down I wouldve walked out , the attempt at styling my hair was sad to be honest I had to comb it myself , I hear there are good barbers there but their write in system makes it difficult to request them price of the cut was average not too bad but it wasnt worth the money

Great, down to earth staff, low wait times, and quality haircuts. What more could you ask for?

They remind me of London hair salons. They know their stuff and a very chill environment. Keeping it classy and authentic exactly the way it should be. Eduardo is the man, ask for him next time.

Great place, everyone is so friendly and kind its just a great place.All their locations are great and they always do an amazing job with their haircuts.

They dont give their best effort/attention to every one of their customers for the money they charge, however, they were courteous, clean, and have a pleasant atmosphere.

Best consistent barbershop I have found in Fresno, and with competitive prices ($21). Though I have been unable to have the same barber in the three times I have gone, I have been highly satisfied with each cut.

Paul is the MAN! Always on point with the cuts.

Great haircuts friendly staff but you should call and get your name on the list or you could have quite a wait.

David Estrada is the best.

Great people, fun place, and of course a perfect hair cut. Thank you gents and I will definitely be in the Barber Club!

I absolutely love this shop! The people are friendly, the atmosphere is comfortable and they give Great Haircuts! Mattew is officially my personal barber I’ve decided lol he does a great job and is fun to converse with! I highly recommend him! Only thing about this place is they NEED to put one in Oakhurst so they can replace all the crappy hole in the wall looking places we have. Seriously please! Lol anyway you won’t regret coming here! I promise!

The best barber in Fresno - super cool staff. Samuel is the man if you are looking for the best cut. Ask for Samuel when you set your appoinment unless it conflicts with my schedule, lol jk.

Nice space with plenty of light & room to stretch out, six+ chairs, tall ceilings with glass front windows

Great haircut, great price, great atmosphere. Despite the chalkboard sign prominently portrayed in the Photos of this place, there is no wifi - but Starbucks is right nextdoor, and the signals great, so your LTE wont weep. =)

My son liked his barber.

Always a good hair cut. Nice folks.

Ask for eddy dude knows his craftsmanship!The atmosphere is nostalgic mixed in with rebel without a cause great crew superlative service All they need now is a full service bar in there!

Mike is a genius with a straight razor and the people are talented professionals. I recommend this place to anyone with facial hair.

This has been the best haircut I had since coming to fresno.

Always get a good haircut. You can call 30 minutes ahead to book a spot.

Great haircuts, beard work not so great. Hair came out perfectly and even, my beard came out completely uneven.

This place is a joke Shampoo and cut $27 they couldnt bother to cut my hair they were to busy trying to sell me hair products. I would no recommend this to anyone. Had to go directly to another shop for a haircut !!!

Went in to have my boyfriend get a haircut for fathers day, I was referred from barbers to wait to be seen by manager Roberto, as he would be the one to give the best haircuts, as we waited there was a customer return to get his haircut fix as it was not right so we waited even more and we thought that it might have been just a mistake of communication or something like that, well as my boyfriend clearly communicated and showed the image of the haircut of preference and none of it was done, we walked out to think of what had happened and to go back as we tried to work with the haircut and started to notice the several mistakes, we walked in and had to wait then to have it fixed by another barber as the manager had to take a break and completely ruining the experience and completely dissapointing us as far as his work ethic went, as the other barber was trying to fix his mistake and admitting that it was not done properly and at that point just doing what she could Roberto walking by and not acknowledging our presence and his mistake, I did not get a chance to talk to him there and did not wish too, I called and left a message asking to speak to owner to explain situation as I wanted him aware of this situation and have not received a phone call or email since fathers day, very dissapointed as I had left a substancial tip and was absolutely dissapointed with services and experience hope that this message can get to owner and something done, I appreciate attention and regards to this.

Amazing people. Amazing cuts. Amazing prices!

Great place for a haircut and shave. Ask for David.

Priced too high...Cuts are too short even after Ive said something. (Yeah, Im too nice, I should be more forceful) and the wait is too long.

Adam , has skills

Quick and reliable so far

Cool place to Cruise in for a trim..

Great atmosphere! I recommend Frank.

Bad experience, the guy that cut my hair had a bad attitude i did not likd my hair cut. So disappointed..

I always leave satisfied with my haircut

Josh rocks. Great cuts!
