Best place to get haircut around USC?

Anyone know where the nearest barber is and if there are student discounts or anything of the sort?

Oh sorry just read the question. They do not offer a discount but do a pretty good job.

The bolt barbers place was bad ass. One of the best haircut experiences I've had as a guy. If you say you found them through facebook and you show your student ID, you get 25% off your bill on Tuesdays and this free member card that gets you unlimited ice cold root beer/soda in a chilled mug, espresso, or beer(!!!) after 7pm while you get your hair cut. They also do a really nice straight edge razor shave of the hairline and end it with a back/shoulder massage. It was $16.50 for the cut after the discount fyi.

They also told me once a month they do a deal on Sundays where they do a cut, full shave, and shoe shine + cigars and whiskey tasting.
