He is a specialist in men's barbering and worked with the most highly rated and respected barbershops in town.

<H4> The General's Store was founded in 2014 as a 'pop-up' venture in East London's Netil Market. Using custom built shipping containers we were able to lay the foundations for an exciting new journey. Offering top quality haircuts and a friendly service we quickly outgrew our first store and decided to invest in another four times its size. We added a fully stocked bar with our very own home brew on tap along with locally sourced spirits and produce all made in East London. Our business grew organically and we would soon outgrow this store as well. In 2015, the store featured on the BBC show Peter Yorks hipster handbook and also aired on the show 'Gogglebox'. </H4> |

<H4> In 2016, in need of a bigger space, we relocated to within the railway arches at Fieldworks. We began to incorporate other aspects to our store at this point. By introducing our own product line in 2017, we began to move away from your everyday barbershop. We wanted to maintain the 'pop up' feel from our past but begin to incorporate more of a lifestyle experience. </H4> |
<H4> </H4> |
<H4> In mid 2019, it was becoming clear we needed a bigger space yet again. Located just 100 yards away, our new location on Martello street has been our biggest undertaking yet. We moved in October 2019 and once again we've adapted and designed the shop ourselves. Our core foundations still remain and always will. </H4> |

<H6> We launched our own product line in early 2017. Our aim was to produce a range of high quality products at an affordable price. We spent a few months testing and researching with different products and packaging. As professionals we used our experience in styling and finishing to create four products that cover all the bases. Our products are currently only available in store. </H6> |
