01Founder & Master Barber

Daniel Mercer

Listen first. Cut second.

Daniel trained under a Mayfair master barber before spending a decade in some of London's most exacting shops. He came home to Newcastle in 2014 with a simple idea: a barbershop that treats a haircut as a craft, not a queue.

02Senior Barber

Lewis Grant

No lines. From any angle.

Lewis joined Gentry House in 2017 and has built a loyal following for the cleanest fades in the city. He came up through competition barbering, where a millimetre out of place costs you, and he has kept that standard ever since.

03Barber & Beard Specialist

Aaron Blake

Shape the beard to the face, not the fashion.

Aaron has had a beard for as long as he has been allowed one, and he treats yours with the same care. He trained in traditional wet shaving before specialising in beard design: working out the line, the length and the shape that flatters your jaw.
