From Garage Cuts to DN Studios – My Journey

“NO RISK, NO REWARD!”

After working in various barbershops and soaking up everything I could, I knew it was time to back myself and build something of my own. With a background in sales and marketing, I leaned into those skills to grow my brand, connect with clients, and start showcasing the tools I use — from clippers to scissors — through creative content and brand partnerships.

In January 2024, I started cutting from my garage with zero clients and a vision. Through consistency, storytelling, and a passion for precision cuts, word spread fast. By September, I opened DN Studios barbershop in Ashwood — just 800 meters from home.

Now, I proudly serve the Ashwood community and beyond, with clients traveling from all over Melbourne — even as far as Geelong — for a fresh cut in a chilled, homely space. DN Studios isn’t just about haircuts — it’s about connection, detail, and creating an experience people come back for.
