The Winners of The Raw Talent Barbering Competition 2022 Are Here!
The Raw Talent Barbering Competition, brought to you by Mike Taylor Education, and sponsored by VTCT took place yesterday – Sunday 10 July – and we crowned the winners live at Barberfest 2022 at the Hilton Brighton Metropole Hotel.

The competition gathered a great atmosphere and quite the crowd as the finalists demonstrated incredible talent that amazed judges with the quality of skill performed. The competition was split into three categories – Freshers, Graduates and Postgraduates. The finalists created their looks in front of a panel of judges live at Barberfest before the winner was announced on the Inspiration Stage at 4pm in front of an excited audience. You can see the full list of finalists here.
