Aston didn’t like the way Barbers used to cut his hair and as a kid he decided to take the matters into his own hands. It took a lot of “flops” and “Wacky” hair days but eventually he got it right and started cutting the boys in his school for R50. Aston is outstanding on Patterns and Hair Art and although he is the youngest team member, he has already build a significant client base.
He is a very gifted but grounded young man. He invites you to experience that “Wow” factor in his workstation.
Meet Joshua, the hair maestro with a journey as diverse as a tropical coral reef! In the early chapters of life, I found my way into the world of hair by casually trimming locks for friends and family in my early 20s. Little did I know, this scissor-wielding pastime was the first strand in the tapestry of my true passion.
My adventurous spirit then led me underwater as a qualified service technician for Scubapro Africa, exploring the depths of the ocean while fixing and fine-tuning scuba gear. Talk about a deep dive into the unexpected! Following the underwater escapades, I surfaced in the internet field, navigating the digital waves with tech savvy.
But life had a different hairstyle in mind for me. In a bold move, I decided to heed the call of my shears and enrolled in the Sorbet Barbers Academy. Graduating in 2022, I emerged with not just a certificate but a newfound dedication to my lifelong passion – hairstyling.
I’m not just your average barber; I’m a connoisseur of customer service, committed to delivering an experience that leaves you feeling as fresh as a newly trimmed fade. Specializing in the art of fading and razor work, I’m here to sculpt and style, one cut at a time. So, come on over to my chair, where every snip is a stroke of artistic flair!
