about me

Originally from Southern California, I spent several years working in the drinks industry before deciding to make a change. I was looking for something more sociable and creative, and I realized it was time for a fresh start. So, I went back to school to learn how to cut hair—a challenging but rewarding decision that brought me exactly the change I needed.

After gaining valuable experience in several shops over the last 6+ years, I felt it was time to take the leap and open my own space. That's how Whitehawk Brighton came to be. My goal has always been to create a welcoming, community-driven street shop where everyone feels at home.

It’s been a long journey, but I’ve finally made it, and I couldn’t be more excited to share this space with you. I look forward to meeting new faces and reconnecting with old friends along the way. Thank you for being a part of this adventure.

🙏💈 John
