Richard Nathan - Studio Director
Richard’s career journey has been unorthodox. At 15 years old he started learning to cut hair and continued to do so throughout his college and university years. After university Richard entered the corporate tech world where he spent 14 years working for brands such as Motorola and Apple as a Regional Account Manager. During this period Richard went on to complete his Level 2 & 3 qualifications in barbering so that he could work with all hair types. In 2024 Richard left Apple to focus on fulfilling his dream of running a multicultural barbershop that serves the local community and beyond.
