Kent man crowned best barber in Britain

A leading barber from Kent is once again celebrating after being crowned the very best wet shaving barber in Britain for a second straight year.

Enver Yesilbulut, owner of Kings Barbers Male Grooming in Deal, won the coveted Britain’s Best Shave 2019 competition at the HJ London Live show at the ExCel London. He beat off razor sharp competition from seven other finalists at the national final of the annual shave off, run in partnership between industry watchdogs British Barbers’ Association and The Bluebeards Revenge male grooming brand. Enver impressed the judges on a number of criteria, including shave preparation, razor technique, post-shave routine, health and safety and overall efficiency.

His prize was once again a belt to display in his Deal barbershop as well as £500 worth of products from The Bluebeards Revenge. The 35-year-old, who failed to make the national final back in 2017, is now the first barber in the competition’s history to have successfully defended their title. He said: “It feels truly amazing to have defended my title as this is the first ever repeat winner. The feeling still hasn’t sunk in. It’s widely regarded as the most prestigious prize in the industry and the competition attracts hundreds of entries every year. This is my passion. I have to thank all my clients who allow me to do what I love every day. Without their continuous support it wouldn’t be possible.”

So, grooms head down to Ever's barbers in Deal for an award-winning wedding-day shave!
