Principles Invitation - June, 5 spots only
If you are a busy barber who is still winging it and your back is feeling like a packet of crisps, this is for you
The Promise
In 4 months, you will be fully confident in scissor work, precision cutting, and understanding exactly how to use shape and structure on every single client, no matter the hair, texture, length, or style.
Not kind-of confident.
Not mostly confident.
Fully confident.
You will stop guessing. You will stop adjusting mid-cut. You will know exactly what you are doing and why before you make a single move.
That is the outcome.
No more long hair anxiety.
No more weird stances and the mirror looking like it’s judging you personally.
Why PRINCIPLES Exist
The industry is shifting.
Clients are demanding:
• More scissor work
• More shape
• Longer lasting
• More natural structure
• Higher standards
Most barbers were never properly taught structure.
They were taught to copy.
They were taught steps. They were not taught shape.
Precision is now the separating factor.
PRINCIPLES is designed to install it properly.
The 3-Phase Development Model
This is not a subscription
It is a development program
Phase 1: PRINCIPLES Stage (Months 1–4)
This is where we rebuild your foundation
You will learn the exact four shapes I teach globally in my in-person education
The same four shapes.
You will learn:
• Shape building
• Elevation control
• Simplified sectioning
• Over-direction dynamics
• Weight distribution
• Body positioning
• Tension management
And more
A core tenet of PRINCIPLES is to teach you the WHY’s
We go deep into theory to help you understand why we cut the way we cut
This is done through theory videos and LIVE breakdowns
This phase is about confidence and standards
You stop guessing. You stop adjusting mid-cut
You begin cutting with intention. These four shapes are not trends
Trends come and go, Principles don’t
They are the foundations of everything that you will build for the rest of your career
Phase 2: SYNTHESIS Stage (Months 5–7)
This is where most barbers plateau
You won’t
In this stage, we apply everything from Phase 1 and begin creating what I call:
Impossible Shapes
Shapes that don’t “exist” as fixed templates
You combine structures. You manipulate weight
You control the silhouette deliberately
This is where technical depth becomes creative authority
Your understanding moves from:
“I know the shapes”
To
“I can build any shape”
This is where you separate yourself
Phase 3: QUANTUM Stage (Months 7–12)
By this stage, you are no longer guessing
You are operating at a higher standard
We create the shapes on shorter hair and introduce clipper work to show how we transition from a fade into scissor length seamlessly
By this point, you will be cutting hair like nobody else
You will be by far the most knowledgeable and respected Barber in your area, and you start to imagine becoming an educator - if that is something that you want
If You Want To Become An Educator — This Is Where You Start
You cannot teach what you do not own
The 4 shapes you will learn inside PRINCIPLES are the exact same 4 shapes I teach in my in-person education around the world
The ones people pay £950 per day to learn from me directly
If becoming an educator is where you want to go, this is the foundation on which to build it
There is no shortcut to that level
But this is the most direct path to it
Weekly Structure
Every week inside Principles:
• Unlock new shape + Dissect on Head sheets LIVE
• Haircutting and cognitive reviews (You will strengthen your decision-making, not just your haircuts)
