Pall Mall Barbers Founder, Richard Marshall, Awarded MBE

British entrepreneur and founder of Pall Mall Barbers, Richard Marshall, has been awarded an MBE in the King’s New Year Honours List for Services to International Trade, Mentoring and to People with Dyslexia.

Marshall’s journey is one of the most extraordinary transformations in modern British barbering.  Diagnosed with severe dyslexia at the age of five, Marshall struggled to read, write, spell his own name and complete basic tasks such as filling out cheques, for first 10 years of running his business. Undiagnosed ADHD emerged later in life. Expelled from school at 15 with no formal qualifications, navigating entrepreneurship through resilience, observation, and alternative learning methods. Yet he went on to build one of the world’s oldest barbershop brands into a global enterprise with locations in London and New York.

Despite these barriers, Marshall rebuilt his life through practical learning, mentorship, and relentless perseverance — becoming one of the UK’s most respected figures in the men’s grooming, hairdressing, small business and exports sectors.

His work reached national prominence when Prime Minister Rishi Sunak referenced Richard’s story live on television, highlighting his resilience and contribution to British entrepreneurship.

Marshall now advises the UK Government as a member of the Small Business Growth Council, shaping the national agenda for the 5.6 million small businesses that power the UK economy.

Richard says, “I’m overwhelmed to receive an MBE from the King. I hope my story and journey demonstrates that it really is possible to overcome the most difficult of challenges. It’s not easy, and so I focused on a different direction and just grabbed every opportunity with both hands and made sure I learnt everything I could from other businesspeople. And now I like to share my knowledge and expertise with others, showing parents, employers and teachers that having dyslexia and/or being neurodivergent does not mean a restricted future. It’s important to instil ‘can-do’ confidence.”

Richard’s upcoming autobiography will further explore his powerful journey—from classroom humiliation and illiteracy to speaking on global stages, advising ministers inside 10 Downing Street, and leading a heritage brand now celebrating 130 years. The book will provide a blueprint for others, highlighting the potential of social mobility. The release of the book will coincide with the relaunch of the Pall Mall signature men’s grooming product collection.

Kevin Hollinrake MP, Chairman of the Conservative Party and Shadow Minister without Portfolio, said:

“That’s marvellous news — so well deserved. I’m absolutely delighted to see Richard recognised with an MBE. This honour is richly deserved. Richard is a standout example of British entrepreneurship at its best, building successful international businesses while giving back through mentoring and championing people with dyslexia. During my time as Business Minister, I saw first-hand his commitment to small businesses and to helping others succeed. This recognition reflects not just commercial success, but real service to others. Huge congratulations to him and his family.”

Millie Kendall OBE, CEO of the British Beauty Council, said:

“Richard absolutely deserves this honour. He has worked tirelessly with government for many years, helping to raise the profile of the hair and beauty sector and demonstrating the immense value it brings to the UK economy. His contribution has been instrumental in showing policymakers what our industry delivers now — and what it could deliver with stronger, continued government support. Richard is also a powerful ambassador for British business on the global stage, particularly in the United States. His dedication, influence and passion for championing our sector make this recognition incredibly well-deserved.”

Caroline Larissey, Chief Executive of the NHBF, said:

“Richard’s contribution as an NHBF Board Member has been outstanding. He brings deep expertise, commercial understanding and an authentic connection to a sector with a notably high percentage of neurodivergent and dyslexic individuals. His insight has directly shaped how we communicate with and support our Members, ensuring our messaging is more accessible, inclusive and representative of the realities many face. Richard’s leadership and advocacy have helped drive meaningful change within the industry, and we are delighted to see him recognised with this honour.”

FATBOY’S TOUSLE & GO DELIVERS AN INSTANT HAIR REFRESH AND EFFORTLESS TEXTURE

Some days, your hair has plans of its own. You wake up, you have somewhere to be and there’s no time for a reset. Fatboy, the hair care brand built for high-performance styling, has the perfect product to bring your hair back to life while giving it just the right amount of edge. Tousle & Go, a dry shampoo and hairspray hybrid, is a versatile styling essential that revives, refreshes and restyles in seconds.

Created for those in-between moments, whether you skipped a wash day, need a quick touch-up between events or simply want an instant boost, Tousle & Go (6oz. / $28) adds volume, definition and workable hold. Its tapioca starch absorbs excess oil, aloe vera helps strengthen strands and sunflower seed extract locks in moisture. No residue. No stiffness. Just clean, touchable texture that moves naturally.

The beauty of Tousle & Go is its versatility. It gives a boost of volume and definition or just a touch of hold, working across all hair types and especially transforming fine hair with body and grip.  Short, long, or somewhere in the middle, it gives every style a little more life.

Tyson Kennedy, the creator of Fatboy, shared how he likes to style with Tousle & Go

1. Lift sections of dry hair and spray directly into the roots to absorb oil and add instant lift. Focus on the crown or areas where you want extra volume.

2. Let the product sit for a few seconds, then use your fingertips to massage through the scalp and evenly distribute.

3. Lightly mist from mid-lengths to ends to create separation, grip, and that soft, touchable finish.

4. For a more lived-in look, spray on damp or towel-dried hair, scrunch, tousle, and let it air dry for an easy, undone finish.

Tousle & Go is the shortcut to effortlessly refreshed, perfectly imperfect hair. Bring it anywhere, refresh in seconds. Just spray, shake and go.

Behind the Brand: The Artero Legacy

A family story of craftsmanship, innovation, and precision – built to empower barbers and stylists worldwide.

When it comes to professional hair tools, very few brands can say they’ve been perfecting their craft for over a century. For Artero, the journey began not in a modern factory, but in the Spanish countryside – with a pair of shears, a determined craftsman, and a family passion for precision that has been passed down through four generations.

“Our great-grandfather was a sheep and horse shearer,” said brothers Alex and Edu Artero, the fourth generation leading the family business today. “Cutting implements have always been at the core of our family. This deep-rooted connection to shearing and cutting tools naturally evolved into a specialization in scissors.”

From shearing wool to sculpting hair, the Artero story is one of evolution – combining heritage with cutting-edge technology to deliver the finest professional tools for barbers and hairdressers around the world.

A Heritage Forged in Steel

Artero’s legacy has always been about precision – creating tools that don’t just perform, but elevate the craft of cutting. Over time, the brand refined its focus on professional scissors, developing a range that caters to the needs of every stylist, from newcomers to industry icons.

“Scissors are the most important tool in any barber or hairdressing salon,” said Edu. “They’re fundamental for achieving precision and style in every cut. That’s why we’ve spent generations perfecting them.”

Today, Artero’s scissors combine traditional craftsmanship with state-of-the-art engineering. The result? A collection that balances comfort, sharpness, and durability – with prices ranging from £100 to £1000, ensuring every professional can find their perfect match.

Each model is crafted from carefully selected steel types to suit specific needs:

  • SPS (Swiss Powder Steel) – exceptional hardness and precision (61 HRc).
  • VG10 Steel – renowned for edge retention and long-lasting sharpness.
  • 440C High-Carbon Stainless Steel – a reliable, high-performance classic.
  • 9CR Stainless Steel – a more budget-friendly option with excellent quality.

This variety allows Artero to meet the needs of both barbers starting out and seasoned professionals looking for the ultimate upgrade.

Design That Works as Hard as You Do

Comfort and ergonomics are just as important as the blade itself. Long hours behind the chair can take their toll – which is why Artero places so much emphasis on balance, control, and fit.

“The ergonomic design of a scissor directly impacts comfort and performance,” explained Alex. “A well-fitted pair reduces strain on the hand and wrist, helping barbers work longer and more comfortably, while maintaining precise results.”

Artero also offers an extensive range of left-handed scissors, including micro-serrated, curved, straight, and thinning models – ensuring that every barber and stylist can find the right fit for their hand and cutting style. This inclusive approach reflects the brand’s wider philosophy: to empower every professional to create with confidence and control.

Tools That Grow With You

For Artero, quality isn’t a luxury – it’s a foundation. The brand understands that the right tools can shape a career, improve efficiency, and unlock creativity behind the chair.

“High-quality scissors provide smoother cuts, reduce hand fatigue, and deliver consistent results,” said Edu. “They’re an investment in your craft – and we believe professionals should be able to start with something reliable, then level up as they grow.”

Whether you’re purchasing your first pair or expanding your professional kit, Artero ensures that each tool meets the highest standards of quality and performance. Every scissor is the result of meticulous testing, thoughtful design, and the Artero family’s century-long dedication to excellence.

A Brand Built on Trust

Artero’s mission has always been simple: to craft tools that inspire creativity and enhance every cut. From its origins in animal shearing to its current status as one of the most respected names in professional hair tools, the brand remains true to its roots – family, quality, and innovation.

Today, with Alex and Edu at the helm, Artero continues to blend tradition with modern innovation, providing barbers and stylists with tools that make every cut feel effortless.
