In everything you do, there is that need to strive for perfection. Ghanaian barber Nikky Okyere has carved a niche for himself as he has perfected his craft.

Nikky Okyere was born in Ghana and now lives London where he has grown to be the barber footballers go to when they need a cut in London.

Wilfred Zaha in a documentary with BBC also confirmed that the haircuts he gets from Okyere gives him confidence in every game.

Sako also confirmed that he always wants to look good on TV and that has called for him trying different hairstyles before each and every game.

The Ghanaian barber wanted to be the most loved barber in England’s capital when he initially moved into the city and started his business.

His dream came into fruition when ex-Nigerian international Yakubu Aiyegbeni visited the shop and word got out on Nikky’s hairdressing skills.

That indeed attracted football personalities predominantly Ghanaian and those living in England.

This include Christain Benteke,Divock Origi, Jordan Ibe, Danny Welbeck,Patrick Van Aanholt,Timothy Fosu Menash,Mario Ballotelli,Andre Ayew,Avram Grant and he has even taken up the challenge of taken care of the entire Ghana Black Stars.

Nikky Okyere is well appreciated by his clients as he has been awarded jerseys by some of his clients and also became the only non-footballer guest at Balotelli’s birthday party.

The Slick Rick barber shop is not just a barber shop but it’s also a place where people dance and have fun for customers to enjoy.

This entertaining shop is the one place you will need to go when you are in London.
