Where is your Barbershop located?
My barbershop is located in San Benedetto del Tronto, Italy on the Adriatic coast.
When did you start cutting there?
My barbershop has been open for almost 9 years.
How long have you been cutting hair?
I didn't like school, I always put physical crafts first. I started in a hairdressers at the age of 17 and since then I never left this job. I'm now I'm 34, so half my life!
How did you first hear about Uppercut Deluxe?
In 2014 before opening my barbershop here in Italy, in Australia, I was in Margaret River at that time and a guy made me try this red wax and I was in love immediately. The packaging and the fragrance .... I knew that when I opened my own shopw I wanted this product in there!
In 2016 when I opened it was very difficult to find Uppercut Deluxe in Italy, but I had to find a way! And I was the first to have the brand in Italy.
How long have you used Uppercut Deluxe products in the barbershop?
Since day one in 2016 when I opened my own shop.
What makes FANTA special?
My barbershop is a social club, I always thought during the design of the barbershop that it used to be a garage, which in addition to being a reference point for a professional haircut, had to be a meeting point! Music, arcade game cabinets, right by the sea where the sun shines and where the barber puts the person first and then the customer! Our philosophy within the barbershop is that before being a barber you have to know how to listen to the customer and treat him as you want to be treated.
What is your signature haircut/hairstyle?
I don't have one favourite cut but I definitely prefer the old school, classic cuts
Do you have a message you would like to share with the people reading this?
Yes, don't copy others, be original and work on yourself without feeling envy and judged by others, you can always learn something new! Be humble, like the people in the Uppercut family!
