My name is Bethany, I am 19 years old and I am from Scotland. I left school at the age of 15 as I felt that school was not for me, and I knew what career path I wanted. My mother owned a barbershop which I grew up in. She was my inspiration to become a barber as I watched her cut hair all my life in her salon, as well as others. I enjoyed meeting new people and using barbering as an art. At 16 I went to college and received my barbering qualification. While training at college I worked part time in the salon as well as working in the restaurant industry, which improved and perfected my people skills in a working environment. During this time I was also a dance coach to children from the age of 3 to 13 years of age. After gaining my qualification as a barber I stopped working in the restaurants and as dance coach and began to focus on the career path that I was determined to master – barbering. In 2021 I made the decision to move to Dubai and start fresh. Chaps & Co was always who I would aspire to work for. To be given the opportunity to work for Chaps & Co and become a part of their team, not only at a young age but all together, is more than a dream come true! I am very blessed and proud to be a part of the Chaps & Co team and excited to see what is to come in the future.
