Joel Blattner learned the barber craft from Engels Rodriguez. The two worked together for a short time before Engels decided to go it alone.

In 2017, shortly after completing his barber training, Joel took part in the Barber World Championship. The best barbers are selected from each country in a preliminary decision. As “Best Barber on Switzerland”, Joel represented Switzerland at the International Barber Awards, making it one of the 21 best barbers in the world.

Of course, one could assume that this was due to the good training of Engels, but that alone does not make a good barber. A talent was given to Joel and with his eye for detail and his skilled craftsmanship, he has established himself as a top-class barber.

When Engels was looking for reinforcements for his shop, it was almost clear that Joel would follow his trainer and work with him from now on.
