The people behind the chairs

Hamilton's is a family-run shop in the heart of Redruth. Between the chairs and behind the scenes, this is the team who look after you.

  • Liam, Owner, Barber & Educator at Hamilton's Barbershop & Academy

    Owner, Barber & Educator

    Liam

    Liam's barbering journey began before his military career and continued throughout his 21 years in the Coldstream Guards, where he regularly cut hair. After leaving the Army he turned that experience into a full-time career and opened Hamilton's in Redruth in 2014.

    He provides precision cuts, fades, beard work, traditional hot-towel shaves and private, confidential hair-system consultations.

    Liam has taught barbering at colleges, in barbershops and across the UK, and was selected for The Bluebeards Revenge Training Team as its South West educator. He founded Armour to Barber to help former Armed Forces personnel build careers in barbering, and is a director of Veterans Regroup.
