Gorseinon. Morriston. Skewen.

Not finished barbers pretending they still need teaching.
Not people who fancy it for three weeks.
Not someone whose mam has filled the form in for them.

We want people who genuinely want this.

Who’ll turn up. Watch. Ask. F**k things up. Learn why. Come back better.

We can teach barbering. We can’t teach effort.
If you’ve got that bit already, we’ll do the rest.

DM us your name, age, where you’re based and why you want to become a barber.

𝐘𝐨𝐮𝐫 𝐜𝐡𝐚𝐢𝐫’𝐬 𝐰𝐚𝐢𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠.

Some schools went back today.
Some go back tomorrow.

Some parents have only just remembered they’ve got children.

All three shops open today for the last minute school trims.

It’s hammering down anyway.
Come and see us.

Gorseinon x Skewen x Morriston

Walk ins and bookings.

Six weeks of shorts, Crocs and absolutely no standards.

Then September turns up and suddenly everyone’s pretending they run a disciplined household.

Ben sorting the important bit first.
Back to school week.

𝐀𝐮𝐠𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐁𝐚𝐧𝐤 𝐇𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐌𝐨𝐧𝐝𝐚𝐲.
Shops closed.

Swansea has marked the occasion in the traditional way. Absolutely pi***ng down.

We’re back Tuesday, just in time for half the city to remember the kids go back to school next week and nobody’s sorted their hair.

𝐒𝐞𝐞 𝐲𝐨𝐮 𝐭𝐡𝐞𝐧.

𝐀𝐮𝐠𝐮𝐬𝐭 𝐁𝐚𝐧𝐤 𝐇𝐨𝐥𝐢𝐝𝐚𝐲.
Swansea’s got one extra day off and everyone’s acting like we’ve won the bingo.

Fresh trims. Fridges full. Cans cold.
Looking sharp just to spend Monday rotting in bed.
Absolutely tremendous.

𝐇𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐲 𝐛𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐡𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐭𝐨 𝐂𝐉.

Second in command. Keeps Skewen alive.

Knows who’s in, who’s late, who’s fu**ed something up and where Jonny’s left whatever he’s currently shouting about. Basically the brains.

Which is unbelievable when this photo looks like his mam’s just told him he can have McDonald’s if he smiles nicely.

𝐇𝐚𝐩𝐩𝐲 𝐛𝐢𝐫𝐭𝐡𝐝𝐚𝐲 𝐦𝐚𝐭𝐞.

𝐂𝐚𝐦𝐞 𝐢𝐧 𝐟𝐨𝐫 𝐚 𝐡𝐚𝐢𝐫𝐜𝐮𝐭.
Things escalated.

By slide three he’s saying “f**king hell” through his teeth and questioning how much he really needed nostrils.

Zaman.
Proper service.

𝐒𝐰𝐚𝐧𝐬𝐞𝐚’𝐬 𝐠𝐨𝐭 𝐩𝐥𝐚𝐧𝐬 𝐭𝐡𝐢𝐬 𝐰𝐞𝐞𝐤𝐞𝐧𝐝.

The Swans first home game of the season.
Bank holiday.

By Sunday afternoon there’ll be lads in town wearing yesterday’s clothes, one trainer darker than the other and absolutely no idea where their bank card is.

Start respectable.
Get the haircut sorted.

𝐀𝐥𝐥 𝐉𝐨𝐧𝐧𝐲 𝐁𝐥𝐚𝐝𝐞𝐬 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐩𝐬 𝐨𝐩𝐞𝐧.

Jonny’s buggered off for a week.
Family holiday.

The shops are open as normal.
The team are in. Jonny’s unavailable.

Mainly because he’s currently got sand between toes that should never have seen daylight.

Back next week.
