About 1541 London Grooming

Our story begins in a bustling town in East Africa. The day starts early, and two brothers are already late for school. Again. They're too busy soaking up the gossip, tobacco smoke, and heady perfume that fills the air of number 1541, their local barber's shop. It's the start of a lifelong adventure in personal grooming. These wide-eyed boys are as eager for new experiences as their grandfather was in his youth. At the age of ten, he sailed alone by steamer across the Indian Ocean to Africa and a new life. The look in the two boys' eyes shows that they've inherited his ingenuity as a retailer and his thirst for travel. The brothers grew up, grew facial hair, and went their separate ways. They took with them their curiosity and their willingness to break the rules. The elder one became a counter of beans – a number-cruncher for big business in Europe and Australia. The younger one played with chemistry and biology – a master of pills and potions who healed the sick. And all the while, the memory of those exotic smoky fragrances tugged them back to the barber's shop of their childhood. At last the brothers found themselves in London where commerce is at its most enthralling, and anything is possible. This was the place to recreate the magic of that vibrant and inventive old-town barber's shop. The 1541 London Grooming Co is everything the two brothers have learned so far about personal grooming, And everything that they are yet to learn. As their grandfather discovered before them: when you reach your destination is when the real adventure begins.
