About our barber shop

At Oscar's Barbershop, a giant gold sign announces the promise of an old Hollywood experience. But it is masterful barber and L.A native Oscar Ruiz who delivers on that promise each day with his unmistakable talent for crafting classic vintage looks in men’s hair styling - all inspired by childhood memories from growing up near East Los Angeles. In fact, he recalls this very moment as life-changing: “I remember walking into a barbershop as a young boy with my dad and uncle, and seeing all the barbers in their dapper uniforms, working on a raised platform, almost like a stage. I was struck by that image and it was in that moment that I knew I would be a barber.” With three brothers giving him plenty of practice, today Oscar proudly creates timeless cuts spiced with contemporary flair at his namesake shop while keeping alive treasured family bonds and unique LA culture.
