Uppercut Deluxe Welcomes George Coady

George Coady is a super talented, and relatively new face in barbering. A permanent fixture at the well regarded UK barbershop Folsom Barber Club in Birmingham. Having only been behind the chair for roughly 5 years, George has proven himself to be an extremely quick learner. The secret to quick success? Never stop learning, never stop evolving. Born and raised in Warrickshire, a neighboring suburb of the greater Birmingham area. George finished his schooling years, with no clear idea on what he wanted to do in life. Always one with a creative eye and an interest in art, style and fashion, George toyed with the idea of barbering straight out of school, but at the time could only find college courses that specific to hairdressing. After a few years of unfulfilling work on the retail floor, George noticed a growth in the UK barbering scene, which he still followed with a keen eye. It wasn't long before a number of UK colleges tailored a course specific to the trade of Barbering. Coady was quick to enroll, and there began his career. Given that the Barber courses were still in their infancy many of the techniques taught in the curriculum were taken directly from hairdressing course. Point cutting, texturing and working with longer hair types. Techniques that have served George well and are evident in his style of cutting. Straight out of college George wasted not time in getting behind the chair. Putting his newfound skills into practice as he undertook his apprenticeshi
