When some of the worlds biggest celebs want a photo shoot, theres one name that comes to mind......Kevin Ou.... If you haven't heard of him before you've probably seen his work. I can sit here and go on all day about who he's worked with but check it out for yourself.

During his holiday in Queensland he wanted a cut from best in the Barbershop game, and not some Hair Dresser Hair Salon! Don't get me started.... and of course when he asked around there was only one name that kept coming up..... FADEZ... one thing I've learned is that the 'Best' love to be with the 'Best'. Check out some of Kevin's work!!! Catch up soon Kevin.

NSW Warratahs / Australian Wallabies

A 'Promo' is usually a word that FADEZ staff associate with when we go out and cut hair at exhibitions, festivals, or when we do something with some of the celebs that come through our stores. It usually requires alot of behind the scene work....what I'm trying to say is, that we usually know ahead of time when celebs/athletes are coming through our stores.


Slowly but surely that trend is changing and players are rocking up unannounced, and when you have 2 Australian Wallabies in Wycliff Palu & Tatafu Palota-Nau show up on your front door you can't help but notice......these guys are some big friggin human beings!!!!! lol

Besides the fact that these guys could slap me and I'd probably die....so you feel a little bit of added pressure, when cutting there hair...... but in all seriousness they're actually the some of the nicest & down to earth blokes I've come across in a long time.

I've always been a big fan of Tatafu Palota-Nau, but when he freaked out and told me that he had finally come to FADEZ and talked about how alot of people knew about us in Sydney, and he was over the moon to finally meet the FADEZ Barbers...... I don't know who was more star struck, but I think Tatafu was just being nice......


The boys came through the night before their big grudge match against our beloved Qld Reds!!! The very next day Kurtley Beale & Drew Mitchell (NSW Warratahs & Australian Wallabies) came through the city store in the morning to get hair cuts.....Nate, Charlie & Chris are all massive fans of both boys, so big they were caught up and forgot to take photos.......arrrrggghhhh!

Indigenous / NRL All Stars Haircuts

When Business is good! it's good! I've been a huge believer of when you look after people, and they will look after you. Karma is something you don't want to mess with and when FADEZ customer and Gold Coast Tintans Skipper Scott Prince called me and said he's bringing the boys through i was over the moon.

I knew instantly it was another opportunity for FADEZ to showcase it's product on a stage where it will literally be exposed to millions over night....George Rose's tracks even rated a mention by Rugby League Legend Andrew Johns whilst commentating.

When Scott Prince, George Rose - Manly Sea Eagles, Nathan Merrett - Sth Sydney Rabbitohs, Yileen Gordon - Canterbury Bulldogs, Cory Paterson - Newcastle Knights, Travis Waddell - Canberra Raiders, Tom Learoyd-Lahrs - Canberra Raiders, came into our Gold Coast store the boys felt at home straight away, probably the most humbling thing for us was that they had already heard about us, despite being from down south NSW/ACT.

I must say it was a humbling feeling being apart of something so historic and important particularly for the Indigenous people of Australia, and something we contributed to even if it was small.

Cogratulations and Thankyou to the Indigenous All Star Team from FADEZ Mens Barbershop.
