Jesse, Jimmy Rod's Barbershop
Hair cutting boss and Westside import
"My name is Jesse, I'm 27, and I've been cutting hair for 10 years. I started back in Brisbane at 16, and came to Jimmy Rod's during the 3rd year of my apprenticeship while I was still a teenager. After qualifying and finishing my apprenticeship with Jimmy Rod’s and working closely alongside Jimmy, I moved up to being a store manager. I had always wanted my own store and when I approached Jimmy about it we decided to go into business together and open a store outside of Queensland. I had wanted to move for a while and Melbourne looked like a great place for the business and for me personally. I moved down in October 2015 and my girlfriend followed shortly after. I had not explored the West at all, but I couldn't have picked a better spot to land the store! It was great to be able to hang out after work at Highpoint, go to the movies, enjoy all the food options or even go for a knockoff drink with the work crew and unwind. I now live in Ascot Vale and absolutely love being close to work and close to the river and being a part of the local community."
