Miles Wood-Smith - Creative Director of Murdock. Barbers of London

My guest on the podcast this week is Miles Wood-Smith, the Creative Director (and Master Barber) at London barber brand, Murdock.I’ve been visiting Murdock barber shops for the last ten years or so, so it was a real thrill to get to chat to Miles and hear more about the brand from his perspective. Murdock built a range of quality barber shops and then introduced a complementary line of hair, skin, shave and fragrance products. The brand have continued to evolve and introduce new services and have expanded into USA, Australia and other territories. In the episode Miles tells me more about his role as Creative Director, whereby he helps develop new products, runs training and acts as a brand ambassador in the international markets.I loved chatting to Miles this week. He has such a warm and friendly energy and is a brilliant advocate for the Murdock brand. If you get the chance to visit any of their London or New York barber shops you should and you’ll get great service and a warm welcome (and I’m sure Miles would particularly want you to visit Covent Garden where he works!) He mentioned the following products in his routine.Aesop - Face Cleanserhttps://www.aesop.com/uk/p/skin/sensitive-skin-concern/in-two-minds-facial-cleanser/Murdock Moisturiser (discontinued)Murdock - Sea Salt Sprayhttps://www.murdocklondon.com/collections/hair/products/sea-salt-sprayMurdock - Hair Playhttps://www.murdocklondon.com/collections/hair/products/hair-play?variant=37384466825374Murdock - Textured Hair Creamhttps://www.murdocklondon.com/collections/hair/products/textured-hair-creamMurdock - Black Tea Colognehttps://www.murdocklondon.com/collections/cologne/products/black-tea-cologne-50mlTom Ford - F***ing Fabuloushttps://www.tomford.co.uk/fucking-fabulous-eau-de-parfum/T6-FABULOUS.htmlMurdock - Napier Cologne (the latest release)https://www.murdocklondon.com/collections/cologne/products/napier-cologne-50mlYou can find Murdock on Instagram here: https://www.instagram.com/murdocklondon/You can find them online here, to buy products or book a visit:https://www.murdocklondon.com/- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - You can follow me @maninthemirrorpod on IG:https://www.instagram.com/maninthemirrorpod/——————————————————————————————————Special thanks to: Anders Sundberg for sound mixing and production, Andy Goff @goff_andy for the artwork and Andy Gilbert (ATRX) @andygilbert_atrx for the theme music.
