We in Sydney Baybeeee!!!


Damn it's been a while since I've blogged.... I apologise peeps.

So I guess this Blog is going to make up for the past 6 months and what's been happening.

I guess the 2 most significant things have been the opening of our new Sydney Store & the Floods.

Our Goodna store is 2 weeks away from being rebuilt!!! But the boys are still cutting from Goodna....Yeeeooowww

The Sydney Store has gone from Strength to Strength being able to retain & attract new clientel. Sydney is one 'HECTIC PLACE' lol!!! There's so much more opportunity down here and networking is insane, but in the same token there's twice as much competition, but we're definately making noise and alot of ppl notice.

I will give you an example of Sydney, and how it was last week.
Monday - Issac Luke - Sth Syd Rabbitohs, Tuesday - Stan Walker, Wednesday - Shengo Deane - Kim Kardashian, Aussie Bodyguard Boyfriend, Thurs - American Import - Pat Sanders from the Sydney Kings NBL, Sun- DE LA SOUL!!! and that's an average week here at FADEZ Sydney.

Before Christmas Lloyd Banks from G-Unit popped in, but I guess in the scheme of things it's the people of Sydney that keep us going, without them we are nothing!!! Having celebs come to us, from either TV, Sports or Music is a compliment in what we do, but also a way of giving back to our customers and the community.

Never has a Celeb walked through our doors brush our customers away.... coz if they ever did they'd get a kick in the arse and be told to never come back.... It's our locals that make us, the celebs come to us for the same reason.

I will never forget when one of our customers sat down for a haircut, unknown to him Stan Walker was sitting next to him.....after a while it dawned on the guy that it was Stan. He then turned and said 'OMFG!!!! Honest to who Stan Walker gets hooked up at my Barbershop' and the whole store bursts out in laughter.... but he was a massive Stan Walker fan and was star struck.

or when

The kid I spoke to, he came in for a cut only to be met by a huge crowd of ppl at FADEZ.....He thinks 'Man there's alot of ppl here, but it's FADEZ it's always like this' the then walks past the counter and Lloyd Banks is standing there. ' He then turns to Lloyd Banks and says 'Dude What the F..K your Lloyd Banks', Lloyd then gives him a smile, signs an Autograph and says 'Here you go my man'. The look on this 17yr olds face was priceless, and I know it meant alot to him.




Summerbeatz was another promo we did. Paperchase Touring got a hold of FADEZ and that we were in town... and one thing lead to another. We did an onstage Promo in front of a crowd of 12,000, ACER ARENA, Sydney Olympic park.... We had the privlige of meeting the likes of AKON, Flo-Ryda & even hooking Ja-Rule up with a Fade.




But if I could finish this blog on this final note.....' We ain't nothing without the ppl of BNE & SYD'

FADEZ.
