The Craft
The barbers at Five Star come to work with one goal: to make sure you leave looking better than when you walked in. That means taking the time to understand what you actually want — whether it's a clean lineup, a smooth taper, a detailed hardline, or a relaxed trim for a ten-year-old who's a little nervous in the chair. The shop has earned a reputation in National City for being good with kids, attentive with regulars, and welcoming to first-timers and military families.

From a tight hardline to a smooth fade, the team pays attention to the specifics you bring in. No guessing, no rushing.

"I love rose she did a awesome job on my hair the place was clean and very good people to talk to the seats where pretty and not that pricey for a cut I would recommend military family members to get a cut, trim, shave you name it they know how and what they are doing. Very good place I'm making them my new barber for now on. 5 star barber lives up for 5 stars."
"Took my 10 year old son in for a haircut and that kid got the BEST haircut of his life! I am actually kinda jealous... Also, the barber was super good with kids. (Mine and the other children) Totally going back. Fantastic people, great shop, and probably the best haircuts in town!"
"Boyfriend got his first haircut here about 3 months ago. Very clean job and they took their time making sure he got all the details he wanted from a nice hardline to a clean lineup and a smooth taper. It was a sight to see. I was very satisfied in how my man looked. I've been making him come back to this barbershop ever since."
