Hi! I’m Oliver from the Philippines, I have been a barber for 13 years now and I really just took it up as a hobby. I am self-taught and would practice on my friends, family, and other people in the village. I then realized that I had a talent for it and enjoyed what I was doing so I decided to start charging and make money from it.

As my skills and passion grew I started to follow international trends and keep up with what was happening in the barber world and of course, I started following Chaps & Co.  I reached out to one of their barbers in Abu Dhabi, Freddie, and we became friends.  After some time Freddie was able to get me an interview for an opportunity in their first barbershop in Riyadh.  I am so happy to be working for Chaps & Co and look forward to experiencing new things and cultures in Saudi Arabia.
