In the world of barbering, few names resonate with as much influence and impact as Richard Marshall, CEO of Pall Mall Barbers. With a career spanning decades and a passion for elevating the status of barbers as skilled professionals, Marshall is on a mission to redefine the barbershop experience—not just for clients but for barbers themselves. His efforts are now gaining recognition at the highest levels of government, advocating for barbering as a vital and respected industry in the UK.
Championing Barbering at the Highest Levels
Richard Marshall’s dedication to the barbering profession extends beyond the chair. As a member of the UK’s Small Business Growth Forum, he is a vocal advocate for the importance of barbers in the economy. From presenting at the Department of Trade & Business to his candidacy for the National Hair & Beauty Federation (NHBF) presidency, Marshall is positioning barbering as a respected and vital trade that deserves recognition and support.
Marshall’s commitment to excellence is reflected in his efforts to bridge the gap between traditional barbering techniques and modern men’s grooming trends. By pushing for increased visibility and respect for barbers, he’s not only uplifting the profession but also setting new standards for barbershops nationwide.
“The NHBF is respected for its accurate data reporting and, importantly, has a seat at the top government tables. Together, we have the potential to make real, lasting change in how all our industry is perceived, protected, and supported –from funding and regulation to education and mental health recognition. Having worked with HRH Prince William on mental health projects gives me a prime position to lead from the front. I’ve seen people informing the government about the sector who, quite bluntly, don’t know what they’re talking about. That’s why I’m working with the NHBF to host a series of barber-specific round tables –to gather real insight from those on the ground and feed that directly into government.” – Richard Marshall, CEO of Pall Mall Barbers London (excerpt from barberevo press release)
