Independent barbers in Hessle and Cottingham. A working brand built behind the chair, not in front of a camera — designed around precision, consistency, and the kind of cut you book back in for.
Redefining men's grooming standards in East Yorkshire and beyond — where tradition meets trend, and every client leaves elevated.
Founded in Hessle in 2022 by Jake Everitt-Haslop. Kurtis Skipworth joined as co-director in 2024 and now leads the Cottingham shop and the education arm.
Built Space Male Image from the first chair in October 2022 — and built the foundation it still runs on. Inside the shop, the steady hand: working with the team, holding the standard, making sure every barber has what they need to do their best work.
The reason the shop is where it is today — stable, consistent, fully booked.
Joined the shop in September 2023 and stepped up as co-director the following year. The forward gear of the brand — the innovator, the external face, the educator behind Look and Learn, 12-Week Fundamentals, and the 2-Day Pro intensive.
The reason the shop keeps growing.
Both shops run the same systems and the same standard — same training, same quality control, same chair-side approach. Pick whichever's closer.

Built on a five-star rating from over 1,800 reviews across both shops. Voted 5th best barbershop in the UK at the Hair & Beauty Awards 2025 — a public vote, not an industry panel.
The brand runs on three rails — the chair, the room, and the shelf. You're on the brand page; here's the rest.
From a single observation day to a full twelve-week pathway. Taught by working barbers, run from the flagship.
