A fresh cut before Matsuhisa

Matsuhisa is chef Nobu Matsuhisa's original restaurant, opened on La Cienega Boulevard in 1987. The small dining room still serves his signature dishes and omakase to longtime regulars and visitors.

Diners planning an omakase evening often book a cut or beard tidy-up beforehand. Nearby Beverly Hills hotels make a pre-dinner session simple. There is no salon to find and no waiting room. Ben comes up to the room, works neatly, and is gone before the next call time.

Private. Convenient. Always on time.

Ben holds licenses in barbering and cosmetology in multiple states. Before Los Angeles he built and ran four barbershops, and his chair has since followed entertainers on tour and onto television and music video sets. Rod Wave, Polo G and Lamar Odom are among the names who have sat with him. His specialty is the short cut done properly: skin fades, low and mid tapers, line-ups, 360 waves, beard sculpting and clean head shaves, on straight, wavy, curly and coily hair alike.

From 129 N La Cienega Blvd, Beverly Hills, CA 90211 it is a short trip to Beverly Center, Restaurant Row on La Cienega and Cedars-Sinai Medical Center. Ben covers Beverly Hills and the surrounding areas of Beverly Grove, West Hollywood and Century City, meeting clients wherever they are getting ready.

There is one way to book and it is fast: a call or a text to 608-201-7717. He is available 24/7, including holidays. Haircuts start at $150, the standard daytime rate is $300, and travel distance and time of day set the final number.
