Welcome to The Barber Shop: Dustin

words by ben stephens

Dustin stands at a comfortable 7ft +.

He’s one of the three barbers that makes up the spaQ Barber team between Sydney and Canberra and he’s a guy that you should put your trust in.

Let him get up and close with your beard with nothing but a sharp razor, or allow him to guide you with what to do with your head of hair – he’s the kind of guy you can trust when comes to those sort of things.

The more you get to know him, the more you’ll let him do what he feels is right for you.

The kind of relationship you want with your barber.

His wit is as sharp as the blade he wields, be sure not to get cut on it; while his style is something to be admired.

Hailing from Germany, Dustin comes from a family that dedicated themselves to crafting unique hairstyles for the populace to enjoy.

Now into his second year at QT Sydney and having worked across both Sydney and Canberra, Dustin has proved himself no fool when it comes to the blade.

When discussing the style of the local folk around the Harbour City, he says ‘Sydney is beginning to create their own style, still in a state of flux, but what’s happening here is unique. A lot of my clients are happy to go with their own style and I like that, they’re really owning it.’

Oh and beards, ‘grow it out or cut it off – again, own it.’
