A Barbershop in the Fashion District: A Downtown LA Guide to Styles Barber Lounge
Styles Barber Lounge is a premium barbershop at 111 East 11th Street in the Fashion District, Los Angeles, 90015, near South Park in Downtown LA. It sits a few blocks from Santee Alley and FIDM, a short ride from Crypto.com Arena and LA Live, and is one of the highest-rated, holding 4.8 stars across 700+ Google reviews.
Founded in 2018 by Shalom Gruber under the slogan Stylists for the Stars, the brand runs two rooms: one on Victory Boulevard in Staten Island, New York, and this one in the Fashion District. What follows is a working guide to the Downtown LA shop: where it is, what it costs, who is cutting, and how to time a visit around an arena night or a Sunday morning.

Where exactly is the barbershop in the Fashion District?
Styles Barber Lounge is at 111 East 11th Street, Los Angeles, CA 90015, in the Fashion District near South Park, Downtown LA. The shop is a few blocks from Santee Alley and FIDM, and a short ride from Crypto.com Arena and LA Live, which puts it inside the everyday orbit of most of the neighborhood.
The address keeps useful company. Santee Alley is a few blocks away on foot, FIDM is close by, and South Park is near enough that the shop works as a neighborhood spot rather than a destination errand. Fold a cut into a fabric run, a class day, or a pre-dinner window. Call (213) 205-8906 if you would rather talk to a person than an app.
How much does a haircut cost in Downtown LA?
At Styles Barber Lounge in the Fashion District, a haircut is $45 and a haircut with beard work is $60. A beard trim alone is $15, the C.E.O Treatment is $100, and the V.I.P is $170. Prices are the same at both Styles locations and every price is shown at booking on Squire, so there are no chair-side surprises.
The menu price is the price, in every chair and at both locations, and it appears when you book on Squire, so the number is fixed before you sit down. If you want the whole menu in one sitting, the C.E.O Treatment bundles the cut, the beard, the brows, and the skin work into about an hour, and the V.I.P extends it into the full 90-minute ultimate experience.
Can you get a haircut before a game at Crypto.com Arena?
Yes. Styles Barber Lounge is a short ride from Crypto.com Arena and LA Live, and the shop stays open until 8pm, late enough to get cleaned up before most evening tip-offs, puck drops, and concert doors. Booking a slot guarantees the time; walk-ins work only when a chair happens to be open.
Pre-event grooming is a real category here. A fresh fade photographs better than a two-week-old one, and the ride from the Fashion District to LA Live is short enough that a late-afternoon appointment still leaves time to eat before doors. Book the slot, keep the timeline honest, and walk into the arena sharper than your seats.
Is Styles Barber Lounge open on Sundays?
Yes. Styles Barber Lounge is open Sunday through Friday, 8am to 8pm, and closed on Saturdays. Sunday is a full twelve-hour day, the same as any weekday, so an 8am cut before brunch and a 7pm appointment at the end of the weekend both fit. Saturday plans need to become Friday or Sunday plans.
The Saturday closure is the one scheduling quirk worth writing down. Everything else about the week is generous: twelve hours a day, six days, with Sunday treated like a real working day instead of a half shift. Even a Sunday event at the arena can get a pre-show appointment, since the shop stays open until 8pm.
Who are the barbers at the Downtown LA shop?
The Downtown LA roster at Styles Barber Lounge is Shalom, Warrior, Tina, Adam, Orlando, Jacob Kolta, Rafa, Moses, and Jaelin. Founder Shalom Gruber started the brand in 2018, and pricing varies by each barber's level, so choosing your barber is also part of choosing your price.
The roster matters because regulars here tend to book a person, not a shop. One Google review from Max R. calls it the "Best fade in LA... real New York City cut experience," which is a fair summary of the pitch: East Coast precision cutting at a Fashion District address.
Why do news crews keep filming at this barbershop?
Styles Barber Lounge was featured on KTLA 5 News in May 2025, and KTLA was the fifth news crew to film at the shop. The segment was syndicated to 11+ Nexstar stations and picked up by Yahoo News, which is unusual reach for a neighborhood barbershop story.
The slogan, Stylists for the Stars, is more caption than boast. Pete Davidson, Lil Jon, Paris Hilton, Bobby Shmurda, Jason Luv, Luisito Comunica, Warren Lotas, and Andrei Deiu have all been photographed in a Styles chair. In a district built on how things look, a barbershop that doubles as a filming location makes a certain kind of sense.
Good to know.
Do I need an appointment, or can I just walk in?
Walk-ins are welcome whenever a chair is open, but nothing is guaranteed except a booked slot. Reserving online or through the Styles Collective app on iOS and Android locks in your time, and on Squire the exact price appears before you confirm. Before games and concerts, booking ahead is the safer play.
What do the C.E.O Treatment and the V.I.P include?
The C.E.O Treatment, $100 and about one hour, includes haircut and beard, eyebrows, the Facial Scrub X Black Mask and a nose wax. The V.I.P, $170 over 90 minutes, is the ultimate Styles experience: detailed consultation, precision haircut and styling, expert beard sculpting, and a rejuvenating facial with exfoliation, hot towels, scrub, black mask and steamer.
Does Styles Barber Lounge have a second location?
Yes. Styles Barber Lounge also cuts at 2234 Victory Boulevard, Staten Island, New York, on the corridor between Willowbrook, Staten Island and Bulls Head, minutes from the College of Staten Island and the Staten Island Mall. That shop holds 4.8 stars across 300+ Google reviews and runs the same Sunday through Friday schedule as Downtown LA. The phone there is (718) 524-6011.
Is the shop a good place to bring kids?
Parents say yes in the reviews. One customer, Vex K., noted that the barbers are patient with kids, including a child on the autism spectrum, which is the kind of detail parents only write when it has been earned. The Staten Island menu lists a Kids Cut at $35 for ages 12 and under; in Downtown LA, the services and exact prices appear when you book.
Is there a loyalty program for regulars?
Yes. Styles Barber Lounge runs a loyalty program called Styles Royalty for clients who keep coming back. If a standing appointment every few weeks is your rhythm, ask your barber about it on your first visit. Between the program and app booking, the shop is clearly built around repeat clients rather than one-off cuts.
