About Bucks Cuts
What'shappening.
“I'm Bucks. I run this barber studio in Basingstoke. Let's get it.”
Eight years cutting hair, and now his own private studio in Room 9 of The Old Coach House, Farleigh Wallop. Press play and he'll tell you himself.
In his words, from the video
“I've been cutting hair for eight years. Started my journey in 2018 in an award-winning barbershop called Raggos.”
“The real learning started when I joined Raggos. Had boys around me that had mastered proper barbering skills, and that's where my skills became on another level.”
College
First cuts
Learned to cut hair in college. Then came the kitchen cuts: "smashing people up in their kitchens, you know how it goes."
2018
Raggos
Joins Raggos, an award-winning barbershop, surrounded by barbers who'd mastered the craft. "That's where the real learning started."

“When my son was 7, he refused to get his hair cut due to a bad experience where a previous barber left his ear bleeding. Bucky made him feel completely at ease, building a great relationship with him, and now my son genuinely enjoys getting his hair cut.”
