"Hot Rod" Mike has earned quite a reputation with many men in the Sacramento area. While more of a traditional barbershop, customers love the edgy looks and styles they get. Specialties include fades, tapers, line-ups and straight razor shaves. Patrons love the look of the shop which resembles a stylish hot rod garage. Look for stations designed like big toolboxes, vintage barber chairs and lots of hot rod decor. Not surprisingly, the owner is a big car guy himself so if you want to talk cars while getting a straight razor shave, this is the place to do it.

Jimmy's Barber Garage is actually a hip spot for both men and women to get a good haircut.

Lucky's Barbershop and Men's Club is consistently rated as a top spot with Sacramento-area residents, and for good reason. Lucky's has brought back the traditional art of barbering. A barbershop is more than just a men's haircut — it's facial hair trimming and shaving services as well. During their peak from the late 1880s to the 1940s, barbershops were where men would go for more than just a haircut. Compared to other male hangout spots, they rivaled saloons in popularity. The decor was upscale, the chairs were elaborate works of art and some even had chandeliers hanging from the ceilings. The invention of the safety razor and home haircutting kits contributed to the demise of the old school barbershop, but luckily, now you can experience that special piece of history right in Folsom, California, at Lucky's Barbershop and Men's Club.

Head out to El Dorado Hills for one of the most unique barbershop experiences out there. Jon, the owner, describes himself as a storyteller and showman — "part Mark Twain and P.T. Barnum, Barber Jon has never met a stranger and always has an entertaining yarn to spin." Open since 1995, Jon has been offering customers more than just the traditional barbershop specialties. Barber Jon is the curator of the Museum of Curiosities and Oddities, which is housed in the back room of the barbershop. It was recently called one of the Weirdest Museums on Earth by Fox News, and customers getting a haircut get free admission to check out everything from aboriginal shrunken heads to what most believe to be the remains of a Fiji mermaid.
