Brayden Paul- Barber

I have been in the industry for 5 years. I love the craft of barbering.

Connecting with people, hearing about what they love and do brings me great joy. I believe that it is essential to make the person in your chair feel like the most important part of my day. I am very detail orientated and I believe quality can go a long way, in service and conversation. I like to keep it real.
