The latest barber to join The Dandy Gent's Irongate shop, Jordan, takes the barber tally at its flagship branch to a magnificent seven - making The Dandy Gent one the largest independent barbershops in the Midlands.
26 year-old Jordan's arrival makes him the 13th full-time barber working for The Dandy Gent in its three Derby and Nottingham shops.
“Its another milestone for us,” said founder and Master Barber, Shane O'Shaughnessy. “We are possibly the largest independent barber brand in the UK, with our three shops and our own manufactory making world-class traditional grooming products.”
Jordan joined the team recently, following a move back to his home town, Derby from Sheffield - where he has enjoyed several years honing his talents. The decision to move was a big one, as he leaves behind a bulging client-base, often working on 3-4 week advanced bookings.
“I finally decided to move back to my roots in Derby - so now looking to re-establish a strong client-base here - I know takes time, but I'm confident I can do it.” Said Jordan.
Jordan is a big sports fan - and a massive fan of Derby County FC (but don't hold it against him!). He's into gaming and rides a motorcycle and he fits in great with the rest of the team. “I love it here,” He says. “The goofiness and constant barrage of banter is great - I'm just looking forward to making a name for myself here and hoping that people will book in and give me a chance to show off my skills!” he concluded.
“We're going to be very busy as usual in the lead up to Christmas - so I'm sure Jordan will be quickly reaping the rewards he deserves from his move here. He's a great addition to the team.” Said Shane.
