Leen and Bertus started learning mens haircutting when they were just fourteen years old.
With their love of classic barbering and influences of Rock ‘n’ roll, Kustom Kulture and its subcultures, it was inevitable that one day Leen and Bertus would open Schorem Haarsnijder en Barbier.
Now, Master Scumbassadors will present the old school craft of barbering by demonstrating classic cuts steeped in tradition and perfected over decades by the “Lords of the Lard” themselves.
From Pompadours to Flattops, learn how to approach these timeless cuts and how to integrate the Schorem classic shapes and REUZEL (TM) products into your everyday work. While preaching the greasy gospel, the SCUMCLASS will touch on how to build your mens business to ensure your greasers, ruffians and other fine gentlemen scumbags return to chew the fat and walk out with a perfect cut, everytime they leave your shop or salon.
PAUL TAYLOR-CLINCH
We are delighted to announce Schorem’s ‘Pirate Paulus’ has returned to the UK to open his own barber shop, Black Sails, and has joined the UK Reuzel Scumbassador team.
Paul has worked at the legendary ‘Schorem Haarsnijder & Barbier’ and has gained extensive knowledge from some of the worlds greatest barbers. Now you can learn some of the tricks from the trade with Paul at our Scumbassador courses
