Built To Be Different

Imperial started in a small office space with two guys, a big goal, and no playbook. Greg came with the vision, Caleb was in, and they figured it out from there.

What We're Building

Most barbershops have no real foundation – just a space where people happen to get haircuts. Greg and Caleb built Imperial to fix that.

Better décor, a cleaner environment, barbers who actually care. From the moment you walk in, your expectations should be blown out of the water. That’s not a tagline – it’s the actual standard every barber at Imperial is held to.

Meet Greg & Caleb

Greg

Greg is the visionary. He started cutting in 2019 and didn't just fall in love with the craft - he fell in love with everything barbering could be. The client connection, the culture, the opportunity to build something real. His mission is straightforward: take Imperial to a level the industry hasn't seen yet and set a new standard along the way.

Caleb

Caleb has been cutting for five years. He's the kind of person who always wanted more and had the drive to actually go get it - barbering gave him something to channel that into. When Greg came to him with the idea for Imperial, they jumped in together and built it from the ground up, starting from a small office space and growing into what it is today.

This Is Just The Beginning

Five locations. Forty barbers. A career path for young, ambitious people who want more than just a job. That's where Imperial is headed. Greg and Caleb aren't running a barbershop — they're building a blueprint. A proven formula that gives skilled barbers a place to grow, and clients a consistent, elite experience no matter which location they walk into.
