My name’s Zuhair and I am 31 years old with 5 years’ experience in the hair industry. A fun fact about me is that I wasn’t always a barber. When I was younger, I graduated in finance and economics, and also studied auditing. I’m very pleased to say that I rose up the ranks to become a corporate auditor. I’m still very proud of my success, but I wanted to follow my grandfather’s pathway as a barber. I would have loved to have been taught by him, but unfortunately he passed away before I discovered my passion. In 2016, I decided to take part in an online Vidal Sassoon training course which exposed me to the fundamentals of men’s hairdressing. I fell in love with barbering instantly and started putting the essential measures in place to transition my career full time. I spent 4 years perfecting my skills in a barbershop in Malaysia before applying for a position at Chaps & Co in late 2020. I’ve excelled both technically and creatively since becoming a part of the Chaps team, which has allowed me to express my results through my hobby – Photography. This is something I work on closely with my wife. I’m very excited to see where this future takes me.
