Meet Rio
My barbering journey began in Italy in 1997, where I learned the foundations of the trade. I later moved to France to build on my experience before settling in Leicester, where I opened my first barbershop.
I enjoy what I do and take pride in helping people look and feel their best. I'm always keen to learn new techniques and keep up with modern styles while staying true to the quality and attention to detail that have guided me throughout my career. I believe in treating every client with honesty, respect, and loyalty, and I'm grateful for the trust and support of the customers who have been with me over the years.
— Rio, Founder of Rio Barbers
