We Are

The Chaps Crew

Proud owner and operator of Chaps Barbershop, Grant Freedman, first started as a hairdresser in a local salon near his home in East London. After a few years, he moved on to qualify as a barber and work in a barbershop in Central London. More recently, since relocating to Adelaide and managing a local Henley Beach barbershop, Grant is excited to have launched his very own shop in West Lakes’ new development, WEST.

Grant first got into barbering as he found that cutting hair wasn't simply just 'cutting hair'. It was getting to know his clients on a deeper level and developing the ability to make them feel as comfortable as they possibly could. Whether that be making some look good, feel confident within themselves, or simply just feeling that they have someone to talk to.

Working alongside Grant is Zach Rowland. Zach is an up-and-coming barber who studied and graduated from a barber academy in Adelaide. He has worked in barbershops located in the northern areas for a few years but has decided to make the big move down west.

Zach has a passion for art, from drawing to cutting hair. He is a people person that aims to make your day by giving a fresh cut and a friendly service.

Ryan has been creating hairstyles for 20 years. Qualifying in South Africa and shortly after moved to London and furthered his career and became a trainer. Competitiveness is what’s allowed him multiple national and international awards.

Ryan believes his more passionate now than the first day he started. His greatest asset is his ability to be a positive influence to whom ever he meets. Moreover, his ability to connect to his clients allows confidence in a perfect execution every time.

Thomas is one of our barbers you definitely want to pay a visit to if you struggle with your curly locks. Specialising in Afro-Caribbean hair types, or even if you’re looking for a textured crop finish, he can do it all. Coming from Eritrea, East Africa, back in 2012,

Thomas has been grinding hard, working and studying in different professions, but thankfully found his true passion in the barbering industry and has now been barbering for over 6 years.
