A BASINGSTOKE master barber is currently enjoying some international acclaim.
Mike Taylor, who is a co-owner of Taylor Made Men’s Grooming, in London Street, is providing barber training and education for L’Oréal Professional in Canada During his three week visit across the Atlantic, Mike, who is founder and director of the British Barbers’ Association, is set to teach students in Toronto, Ottawa, Vancouver, Edmonton, Calgary, Montreal and Quebec.
He is being accompanied by his business partner Sheriff Mehmet, who also teaches on behalf of the BBA.
Mike said: “It’s good to give back and share our skills. Sheriff and I have been barbering for 24 years now and educating and assessing students for more than 10 years.
“So with barbering being such a big trend at the moment, it’s great that the British Barbers’ Association can educate all over the world and it’s an amazing opportunity for us to raise standards.”
