Brislington barber thanks customers after celebrating 30 years

A man from Bristol has celebrated a milestone anniversary for his Brislington barbershop this month. Mike's Headquarters has been a Brislington institution for 30 years, having opened on Bloomfield Road when its owner was just 21 years old.

Mike Randazzo, 51, is originally from Horfield and now lives in Saltford. He was drawn to the profession at a young age, which was his dream job from when he was a teenager while working in a barber shop at the weekend.

“I started as a Saturday boy when I was around 14 or 15," he said. "When I left school, I went to college and the place I was with on Saturdays working, the man took me on full time and I went to college a couple of days a week. When I was 21, I decided to open up my shop with the help of my dad.”
