Our Story
Based in the heart of Maida Vale, we launched Raisa’s Barbers with aim to be a premium, inclusive barbers that caters to everyone. Our mission is to create an atmosphere where everyone, no matter their background, can feel comfortable, safe and leaves looking and feeling their best. A year into our journey we won Best New Business at the Kensington, Chelsea and Westminster Chamber of Commerce Business Awards because of our work to serve our customers, our colleagues and our community.
The Raisa's Team recognised over the years that barbers play a huge part in promoting positive mental health. We recognised the importance of creating a psychological safe space in our shop and in the community. Therefore we set out to catalyse a national conversation around mental health with our campaign Kick The Stigma which has raised over £4,000 so far for MIND.
​
As our business has grown, we have featured on BBC News and BBC Radio having been the pioneer barber shop for a new government initiative called TrimTalk.
​
We are grateful for the support as we continue driving our mission.
