For the price, he's the best stylist in town. I live in Los Angeles and I spend my summers in TC. I refuse to pay $50 for a haircut that's why i wait almost 9 months every year til i head back to town to have Fred cut my mop. I've been using him for nearly 10 years and i've never been disappointed and i'm very particular. as of November, 2012 a men's cut is only $17. you can beat it.
