Where Do LA’s Ubiquitous Barrel Barbecue Pits Come From? - Eater LA

"More often than not, owner Dwight Morgan — also known as Dwight the Barber — will have his black barrel barbecue pit set up directly outside his four-year-old business. Morgan performs double duty as he crafts sleek fades on the heads of loyal customers before cleaning himself up, washing his hands, and moving outside to rotate food on his weathered barrel barbecue pit. On days like this, Morgan sells plates to customers, typically people passing by, or just gives them away to those who want something to eat but can’t afford it." - Mona Holmes

Where Do LA’s Ubiquitous Barrel Barbecue Pits Come From? | Eater LA

"A compact barbershop on Centinela just west of La Brea where the proprietor, Dwight Morgan (aka Dwight the Barber), blends haircutting with street-style cooking and comedy. He frequently sets up a weathered barrel barbecue pit outside, rotating smoked chicken and other plates that he sells or gives away to passersby and those in need; his event menus have included honey teriyaki and jerk chicken. Morgan juggles three careers—cutting hair, cooking on the barrel pit he acquired from a local maker, and doing stand-up—often bringing the pit to his gigs. Although fond of his aging, flavor‑infusing barrel, he’s considering retiring it or commissioning a custom, truck-hitchable replacement after decades of heavy use." - Mona Holmes

Italian Comfort Food Restaurant Sunday Gravy Is an Inglewood Mainstay | Eater LA

"An adjacent barbershop called Close Up Kuts helps give the Centinela block an 1980s time-capsule feel next to the restaurant." - Mona Holmes

found this place online setup reservation..I thought it was a high end shop...Oops my bad...late to set up shop for business. cut was subpar, had to go home and tighten up. I wanted to support a black business however I refuse to settle to do so. I usually pay with tip 100.00 he charged 45 plus 15 tip hope he take this review as opportunity to level up.

Before I got my haircut girls thought I was just cute. After I got a High-top fade for the first time, Girls started to simp for me. As they should. Overall It's crazy how a barbershop can cut you up so well and then leave knowing you look better.

This barbershop is guaranteed to live up to your expectations in the service, atmosphere, price and location. Dwight cut my hair and made me feel welcomed as well as assuring me that this could be my “home barbershop.” You will not regret coming here.

I’ve been a customer of this shop for over 5 year’s, and I absolutely love the authentic style and quality of this shop. Mike and Dwight are both amazing master barbers and deserve to be recognized for their service to this community. With quality and authenticity, Close up kuts is one of my favorite places to visit every 2 weeks. I’m honored to share my experience and two cents on this business.

The barbers were very friendly and respectful. Although I really enjoyed the ambiance and hearing the barbers’ discussions and whatnot, I probably wont be returning. My fade cut came out really uneven and the design I asked for didn’t look like how I wanted it to. It’s a shame too because as a fellow black person, I know it’s extremely important to support our own businesses. Plus, I legit loved the atmosphere. Super chill, really relaxing. Cozy, even because the shop is very small. Would’ve been perfect if my fade was nice. Oh well. Onto the hunt for another barber.

Thee worst haircut experience EVER. The Comedy Barber needs to hang his clips up!! Hella excuses to why he skinned my hair bald, and brushes it off like, "Oh it'll Grow back fast, it was your light skin." I had rather gone to a Barber College. The students would have done waaayyy better. Thanks for fuckin up my birthday Cut. I did not want to be a part of your comedy act! This shyt looks clowning. Fire yourself​

Took my son here to get his haircut,along with my own.We have curly hair .His hair line was not correctly cut.As far my hair ...I paid 75 altogether....worst haircut since 2016.I ask for a fad ,I have very curly hair ....I am now bald .He just cut it all off.What is with these barbers who can't cut curly hair?!!If you have real curly hair and want to look great,don't come here.I ask for a fad before I came ,and when I arrived .Now because of a bad barber am now bald ..and of course there was an excuse...costly and angry

Terrible, the owner closed doors 45 mins EARLY and switched sign to "sorry we are closed" with a terrible staff person outside on the phone with the most nastiest attitude. How you going to close the shop before time posted online? Without even being professional about it, informative and straight up RUDE. HORRIBLE Buisiness. NO type of decency whatsoever. TRASH a** behavior. smh. 0/10

Moved out here a month ago and didn't have a barber so this was the first shop I went to. I got a fade and it was one of the cleanest fades I had in a while. Dwight and Rasta Mike are real chill and the shop definitely gives me a vibe from back home. This is my go to spot now.

Great customer service and great cut . I was looking for a place and stop to this place impromptu, couldn't be happier. This has been my go to spot since. If you're in the area, I highly recommend going here.

I have been looking for a barbershop for years between OC & LA. I think I found my home. This spot was highly recommended by friend. Lived to it's word. The Fellas are hands-down outstanding! The atmosphere of the shop is refreshing. The vibe I get is .... BlackStar meets Damian Marley in the back with Rick James on stage! All that is beside the low-key satisfaction smile I always have walking out with a respectable clean cut. The type of walk that involuntarily throws that new-man spring in your step. Solid!

Just saw their ad on Yelp and decided to give them a try. I usually find barber shops intimidating because, I'm a girl. But we got in and we got out quickly. YAAAAY! Everyone was courteous and respectful. I was surprisingly pleased. Looking forward to my son's next haircut.

This is hands down the best barber I've ever been to. The barber Mike asked me what I wanted and all I said was "a fade" nothing more, and this guy left me looking fresher than my barber of 15 years! Guy had dope conversation and everything. I even hit the ATM to leave him a nice tip. Just do yourself a favor, stop reading this comment and go to Close Up for real!

I found this shop on yelp and booked an appointment for my teen son with Mikey. My son was nervous about going to a new barber. When we arrived, the door was opened and we were welcomed in. The shop is small but comfy. Mikey took his time to do a good detailed job but he was also quick (15 mins). The end result was a perfect taper fade! My son was very pleased with it.

Great cut from Rasta Mike, glad I found a legit barber close to home.
