Meet the Team
Craig Saunders
In 2003 I started my career in ladies and men’s hairdressing. Growing up in London my first job was at a salon in Mayfair, before moving to salons in Knightsbridge, Covent Garden and then Camden, finally settling down in Shoreditch for 8 years.
​
In 2017 I moved to Bury St Edmunds, and decided to focus solely on men’s hair. My barbering is heavily influenced by my time as a hairdresser.
I'm equally as happy to get the scissors out to create shape and texture with longer styles, as I am cutting a short back and sides.
Luke
Luke has been honing his barbering skills since 2015, and is a well know barber around town.
He is very passionate about his beloved Chelsea FC, but don’t let that put you off!
His other loves are house music, pie & mash and jellied eels.
He also loves a chat, so if you have strong opinions on any of the above, then he’s your guy.
Luke is available for bookings
Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays and
Available for walk-ins Wednesdays and Saturdays
Zac
Zac started his barbering journey in 2020 at west Suffolk college, and has been with Blackbird from the very beginning.
Zac is friendly, approachable and highly professional in his work.
He favours classic groomed haircuts, and is just as happy using scissors for longer looks as he is doing skin fades.
A true all rounder.
Zac is available for bookings on
Mondays, Thursdays and Fridays and is
Available for walk-ins on Wednesdays and Saturdays
Shannon
Shannon has been with the shop since the day we opened the doors.

Her work is sharp and she has a killer eye for detail.
Whether it’s crispy line ups or blurry fades you are looking for, she’s your girl.
