Boston Cut Sydney is the first African-owned men’s Barber Shop established in the Darling Harbour precinct of Pyrmont Sydney for the past five years. As a high-end professional men’s hair-cutting service, Boston Cuts specialises in fades, buzz cuts, hip hop styles, conservative, and all the latest trends, and colouring for men. The founder is Amadou Ba who travelled to Australia from Paris in 2015 and now is one of the most sought-after men’s hairdressers in Sydney. Amadou has cut celebrities such as R&B artists Jason Derulo for the Voice 2023 and is followed by the likes of world renowned Australian tennis player Nick Kyrgios and many more. A generous local Sydney sider Boston volunteers his services to people who can’t afford his already reasonable rates in providing free haircuts once a quarter. With English as a second language and surviving the COVID pandemic, Amadou has recently begun to flourish as Sydney starts to rebuild its struggling economy. Many businesses closed around Boston Cuts but Amadou was able to navigate the challenges. Amadous Instagram page shows just some of the celebrities as part of his growing client base who travel from interstate and all across Sydney for men’s haircuts. Amadou say’s… ”I train young Australian’s to learn my cultural practice as a men’s hairdresser sharing techniques I bring that are unique to this country and they will walk away with and edge to men’s hairdressing”.
