Congratulations to Raw Talent Barbering Competition finalists

Congratulations to the finalists in the Raw Talent Barbering Competition, sponsored by VTCT and brought to you by Mike Taylor Education and BARBERFEST.

Come watch the live final at BARBERFEST on Monday 5 July in Brighton's Hilton Metropole Hotel. You can buy tickets here for the event. (Plus, find out what else is happening here).

The competition is split up into three categories of barbering abilities and training standards – Freshers, Graduates and Post-Graduates and we have maximum ten finalists in each category.

The winner of each category will win a £250 cash prize and Dark Stag barbering goodies perfect for student barbers!

So without further ado, may we present to you the finalists who will be cutting live at BARBERFEST 2021!
