While DTLA has become a showcase for hot new talent in
the tonsorial arts, it’s good to have some old school skill.
Tucked in on the east side of the Millennium Biltmore, An-
gelo’s is a Southern California institution in the barbershop
world. Founded in 1972, Angelo’s mini-empire includes six
other locations throughout Los Angeles and the north valley.
Angelo’s DTLA Manager, Wynn Walter is a careerist. This is
what he does and he does it well. His staff is well versed
in classic and contemporary cuts. Experts in fades, flattops
and straight razor shaves, Angelo’s is also a family tradition
for the all-important first haircut. The signature service is the
Royal Shave, is a hot towel and straight razor treatment for
$45. Haircuts start at $24 but tend to run $28 - $36. Hours
are 8a.m. – 7:30 p.m. weekdays, Saturday 9a.m.-5p.m.,
closed Sundays.
