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.

Con Ninos completed his barber training and apprenticeship in Adelaide and comes with experience at other reputable barbershops in the area.

Con has an eye for detail and is able to confidently create shape with his client’s hair to complement their head shape. He is also passionate about educating clients how to style and shape their own hair or beard.
