Our Story

Blake Company. A New Era. I’m Sam, Barber and Owner of Blake Company.

I am a barber from the West Midlands, England who was quite literally born into the industry. Having both parents as barbers you would think cutting hair was my first career choice, but no, my heart was set on pursuing a university course. In other words, abandoning my creative dream. Whilst on my uni journey I was also in pursuit to find myself and realized I was much further away from who I wanted to be. Change needed to happen.

Spontaneously embarking on my journey into the barbering industry I began my career with working at my family’s barbershop, Brits Kenilworth. I took to cutting hair and running a business like bread to butter, you could say I was excelling rapidly. Being left with all this independence it was a sink or swim situation, thank god I packed my arm bands haha.

After my daughter, Blakely was born I began to see things in a different perspective, feeling more motivated and driven. Feeling these emotions gave me the courage to take a leap of faith and go into this industry, on my own. Saying goodbye to my family’s legacy was hard but essential to level up.

Blake Company isn’t just a Barbershop, it’s a brand, a message, a lifestyle. It represents hope and creativity. Lastly its a beacon for making dreams into a reality because all it takes is… action.
