WAHL announces NEW ‘Artistic Team’ graduate - Andrea Raymond It's been quite the whirlwind few months for Cork Barber, Andrea Raymond. Last October Andrea was crowned ‘British Barber of the Year’ on the Wahl stage at Salon International, in a hotly contested live final against four other barbers. Her continued passion, commitment and talent plus her confident delivery of cutting edge techniques has now secured her a place as a graduate 'Artistic Team' member. Andrea will join Artistic Director Simon Shaw and established members Carl Blake, 5ive and Michael Damiano on stages around the UK. Andrea is perfectly positioned to educate the next generation of barbers, ensuring quality and diversity across every Wahl exhibition, show and course.

Wahl’s European Artistic Director, Simon Shaw says "Andrea is a real talent and star for the future. I’m looking forward to coaching and working with her, she’ll be doing all of our major shows in 2017 and I can’t wait to see her in action".

You can see Andrea on stage at Modern Barber LIVE at Barber Connect representing Ireland in the Regional Round-Up segment - 5 barbers, 5 chairs, 5 regions, one great stage!
