The team at Kings Barbers Birchington have won Barber Shop of the Year at the British Hair and Beauty Awards.

Kings barber shop in Station Road opened in May last year and has proved to be a hit with customers.

The salon offers cuts, shaves, hot towel and massage and has a great ‘yellow digger’ chair for the little ones.

It is owned by Enver Yeshilbulut and run by business partner Cetin, best known as Jimmy, who are both from Cyprus.

Enver, 39, also has barber shops in Deal-where he lives- and Aylesham. He has been a barber for nearly 20 years, has previously won the best barber title three times and also a best shave title. He has 18 barbers across his three shops.

Enver, Jimmy and the team say the award marks a ‘significant milestone’ for the business.

They said: “We are incredibly honoured to receive this award. It is a testament to the passion and skill of our team, as well as the incredible support we receive from our community.

“We aim to provide a welcoming and professional atmosphere, and this recognition motivates us to continue striving for excellence in every haircut and grooming service we provide.

“This accolade recognises our commitment to excellence in service, customer satisfaction and innovative barbering techniques. It reflects the hard work and dedication of our talented team, as well as the unwavering support of our loyal clients in Birchington and the surrounding areas

“Kings Barbers has been proudly serving the Birchington community for one and a half years and has built a reputation for quality and style. Our skilled barbers are dedicated to helping clients look and feel their best.”

Winners were decided by a panel of five judges who independently scored each of the finalists with those with the highest collective score taking the title.

To celebrate the achievement, Kings Barbers Birchington will be offering £5 off any haircut and hot towel shave on October 8-9.

Kings Barbers Birchington is based at 12 Station Approach
