Joe

Joe is the Director of "Brooks Leigh On Sea" and brings a wealth of experience to the shop. If you’re lucky enough to get an appointment with him you can bet you won’t be disappointed. One of the funniest guys you will ever meet, offering highly finessed cuts to boot.

Matt

Matt aka “Thursday” is the manager of our Chelmsford branch, he’s a highly skilled and passionate Barber, who loves cars, gym and cutting hair! Be prepared to wait as he is usually booked up weeks in advance, however trust us he’s worth the wait!

Ollie

I’m the manager at our Colchester branch and a confident, passionate barber who genuinely loves the craft. I take pride in creating a great experience for every client, while also being part of the amazing community we’ve built within the shop. For me, it’s not just about the haircuts it’s about the people, the atmosphere, and creating a place everyone enjoys being part of.

Jack

Don’t let Jacks age fool you, he’s our youngest Senior Barber, but his skill outweighs his years and is creating precise clean cuts all day everyday!

Sam

Sam’s height is matched only by his creativity, he loves to produce unique haircuts as well as finding just the right haircut for you. He's also passionate about filming and social media, so expect him to get the camera out at some point!

Cameron

Cameron is one of the nicest guys you have ever met and is the second barber to go through our in house training system and as such is the epitome of what we are about at Brooks, he produces the cleanest work, day in day out with confidence and finesse.

Ben

Benjamin is the newest addition to our Chelmsford team and we couldn’t be more excited to have him! He has a background in traditional barbering and has now furthered his education into contemporary and creative cutting to make himself a very skilled all round barber.

Paul

With nearly 15 years of experience in haircutting, following early training under some of the industry’s most respected educators, Paul went on to work across a number of well-regarded salons throughout the local area.
Paul joined Brooks to work alongside good friend and shop owner Joe, bringing with him a wealth of experience, a considered approach to men’s hair and a genuine passion for the craft.

Ethan

I’m Ethan, and a while ago I swapped the building site for the barber chair and I’ve been loving every second of the change! I’ve always been hardworking and passionate about what I do, and I bring that same attention to detail into every haircut. I’m always striving to give my best and put the same care into my work as I do with everything I set my mind to.
