Linden —

After my first year in the industry, I’m happy to say I have found my passion. Growing up I have always enjoyed being creative and artistic, and this eye helped me grow as a barber alongside a great team at the shop.

I graduated Delmar college with double honours and started my journey at Johnny’s and have never looked back.

I pride myself in giving clean haircuts that suit your individuality and make you look and feel your best. If you are looking for a new barber, I would love to have you in my chair!

Hey there, I'm Benjamin. I've been in the industry for just over a year now, but it's been a whirlwind journey so far.

I graduated from Delmar College in August 2022, and it was one of the best decisions I've ever made. I chose this career path because there's nothing quite like the feeling of meeting new and interesting people every day, while also having the opportunity to grow, evolve, and be creative alongside a terrific team.

I've always loved getting my haircut since I was a kid, and now, I get to do what I love every day. One of my favourite things to do is full hot shaves - there's something so satisfying about creating a clean, polished look for my clients. But I also love cutting all kinds of hair, from classic styles to modern trends.

I take pride in my work, and nothing makes me happier than seeing a smile on my client's face when they leave my chair. So if you're looking for a barber who's dedicated to creating the perfect look for you, come on down to the shop and let's get started!

Eric -

I’ve been a barber for four years, and before my first day of school, I had never even touched hair. From the moment I started, I knew this was what I wanted to do. Over time, that passion grew, not just for hairstyling, but for taking care of my guests and making sure their experience in my chair feels like the right decision every time.

I specialize in short hair and perms. Having worked in a variety of barbershops, from Cannibale Barber to UndrStatemnt Co., and now Johnny’s, I’ve developed a strong appreciation for textured hair. Transforming straight hair into waves or curls completely changed how I see creativity in this craft, and it’s become a big part of what I love to do.

What matters most to me is understanding each guest and delivering a personalized experience. Through a detailed consultation, I make sure we align on a look that suits you. During the service, I’ll guide you on proper hair care and styling so you can maintain the results at home.

My goal with every visit is simple: when you leave the shop, you feel confident, taken care of, and certain that sitting in my chair was one of the best decisions you’ve made.

Nate -

Hello! My name is Nate. I’m a barber with eight years of experience, originally from the UK and now bringing my craft to Canada. Having previously owned my own barbershop back home, I understand how to deliver consistent service while prioritizing each client’s needs.

I specialize in fades, short to mid length cuts, and beard trims, with a passion for clean, precise work that leaves you looking and feeling your best.

Outside of the chair, you’ll find me at the gym doing calisthenics, watching hockey, exploring the mountains, or out with my camera.

Patty –

I’ve been barbering since 2018, and throughout that time I’ve always been drawn to personal style, fashion, and creative expression. My background in dance and design shaped the way I approach hair—focusing on movement, texture, and balance to create cuts that feel natural and authentic to each person.

I specialize in short to medium-length hairstyles with an emphasis on lived-in, low-maintenance looks that are easy to style at home. My goal is to create haircuts that work with your natural texture and daily routine, so your hair looks great whether you spend five minutes styling it or simply let it fall into place. I believe the best haircut is one that grows out well, feels effortless, and gives you versatility when you want to dress it up or keep it casual.

Beyond the haircut itself, I value building genuine connections with my guests. As a former dance director and instructor, I developed a strong ability to listen, understand individual needs, and help people feel confident in their own style and identity.

I look forward to welcoming you to Johnny’s on 1st and helping you find a look that feels natural, easy to maintain, and uniquely your own.

Adam -

Hi, I’m Adam, a barber at Johnny’s on 1st.

I began cutting hair in 2016 out of my parents’ garage with basic clippers and a strong drive to improve. What started as a side hustle during school has grown into a full time career.

For me, barbering is about more than just a haircut, it’s an opportunity to connect with people and make a positive impact. It also allows me to express my creativity as an artist.

I take pride in helping people look and feel their best. Whether it’s a classic style or the newest trend, I’m confident in finding a look that suits your individuality.

I take the time to consult and understand individual preferences bringing a modern touch to the traditional and respected craft. I strive to seamlessly blend the best of both worlds.

This isn’t just about a haircut; it's about unveiling a style that reflects your distinct personality and preferences.

Maddy -

To me, barbering is about more than the finished cut. It's about the experience, the connection, and helping people feel their best. Creating confidence through great hair is what drives my passion behind the chair.

With over 10 years in the hair industry, I began my career working with both men's and women's hair before relocating to Calgary in the summer of 2025 and transitioning fully into barbering. I specialize in textured, lived-in styles with personality, tailored to each individual who sits in my chair.

I'm passionate about educating clients on styling, hair care, and product knowledge, so they leave not only looking great but also feeling confident maintaining their look at home. And if we can share a few laughs along the way, that's always a bonus.
