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.

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.

Favourite Hairstyle: Crop-top or Afro-style
Hobbies: NFL and English Football
Music: RnB slow jams

Client Feedback

Great service, great cut.

Rhys B.

Every time I come in, the blokes here are all welcoming and you can see they enjoy what they do. The shop is in a nice location and the setup inside is neat. Matt is who I always go to cut my hair and he has never left me disappointed. A big recommend to anyone who wants a fresh haircut from any one of these lads, they all do killa cuts for all ages

Ilija D.

Zach did a great job! He was knowledgeable about his trade, offering me good advice without the hard sell for products I don't need. Just the right amount of chat too!

Cannot recommend enough, Grant has taken care of my children and been so patient with them. My youngest (3yo) was scared Grant spent 20 minutes calming in and reassuring my son that he was okay, event did his hair cut while he was standing up and than moved over to a bench. Grant even let my child cut his hair to show it wasn't scary! Grant was communicating with both my children through the entire hair cuts even playing games with them so make them smile. Zak has also been amazing each time we have gone there for adult cuts and shaves, we've always left happy and felt at home there!

Mario B.

Not only is Grant an extremely talented barber, he is a lovely person too. I would not take my son anywhere else. You will not get a better fade anywhere in Adelaide.

Beck T.

**Edit, this was originally a 3star, but have moved it to 5 star as the owner called regarding my feedback. We discussed my comments and he was genuine to the feedback. I have corrected the comment where clarification has been discussed **Hair cut for high school student was well done, unsure of the name who cut it. But, there’s no student price. If you booked online it can cheaper, if you happen to be needing a last minute cut.To be clear, it was a good cut and we’ll return, but we’ll just book online in future.

Marie F

If you're looking for a great haircut and even better chat with your barber, head on over to see Grant.

Daniel G.

Just been for the first time today after a recommendation, I booked in with Grant at the Brighton shop and I absolutely love the cut this guy is next level and would 100% recommend him, he is a top bloke to chat with I was also lucky enough to chat with Ryan the Brighton shop manager and he was also great to chat with and very welcoming. You won’t be disappointed with the standard of service and cut. Thanks again guys can’t wait for my next cut ❤️

Ryan L.

I feel like it's cheating cos normally go to Ryan at Brighton Chaps, who is the best, but Grant at West Lakes is pure class too, awesome cut and top bloke. So either way, you're covered at both locations. Best cuts in the city, fact!

Stephen M.

Friendly and professional staff

I booked an appointment at Chaps with Grant via phone call, and explained that I have severe anxiety and that haircuts can be quite distressing for me. Straight off the bat every barber in the shop was welcoming and reassuring. My appointment with Grant was amazing, he was very considerate of my nervousness, explaining what he was doing and making sure I was comfortable with excellent skill. This is definitely the most comfortable experience I have had at a barber shop, and would recommend anyone experiencing the same to book an appointment with these guys. Grant and his team are all highly skilled, knowledgeable professionals, will certainly be back.
