Lewis Capaldi gets Glastonbury ready at Johnny’s Chop Shop

Scottish chart-topper and social media star Lewis Capaldi stopped by London barbers Johnny’s Chop Shop to get groomed ahead of what he described as “the most important gig of his life” – Glastonbury 2019.

Having previously shared his nerves about the upcoming set, Lewis ensured his hair was looking slick and ready to compliment his individual style ahead of the massive gig.

His cut was a significant upgrade from his usual grooming experience, with female master barber Toastie Styles creating a mod look with a soft textured scissor cut. She used Born Lucky 2 in 1 shampoo to wash and prep his hair, finishing the look with Johnny’s Dry Shampoo to add texture and volume, and Wild Cat Hair Clay for hold and definition with a matt finish.

Lewis opened his set with his typical wit and unique flair, stepping out dressed as Noel Gallagher.

Since Takara Belmont arrived in London in 1959 it has presided over seismic shifts in fashion, culture, art and design that it has both influenced and been influenced by. Being at the heart of the world’s fashion capital cemented Takara Belmont’s position as a manufacturer of distinction and perception, as it continues to produce furniture and equipment icons that shape international barbering and hairdressing.

Over the course of the last six decades, Takara Belmont has created a number of furniture and equipment icons, like the Apollo 2 barber chair, which is still as revered today as it was welcomed upon its launch in the early 1960s.
