Hi, I’m Joseph Edwards, a Manchester-based barber and criminology student. Most of my week is spent working with clients, running bookings through Booksy, and keeping everything organized across WhatsApp and Instagram. I’m big on standards, consistency, and making sure people leave happy. Alongside barbering, I’m into content and digital work, designing and editing my own branding and videos (Cap Cut, Canva, Photoshop/Lightroom). I’m currently developing AI-assisted workflows to speed up admin and messaging responses, including a studio booking app in development. I’m currently studying at Manchester Metropolitan University (2018–2020), with work in English, Photography, Mathematics, and customer service and administration. I’m a reliable, customer-first professional with proven consistency under high pressure, and I’m comfortable with Excel, social media content, and brand development. I’m UK-based, hold a full UK driving license, and I freelance creating branding assets and edits using Cap Cut, Photoshop, Canva, Lightroom and After Effects to support business goals.…Hi, I’m Joseph Edwards, a Manchester-based barber and criminology student.
