105: Barber Deep Dive: Big Brother's Anthony Hutton
About this episode
Welcome to our new limited series, Barber Deep Dive, where over the course of December we slow down the conversation to truly explore the full, inspiring stories of key industry figures. We begin with the extraordinary journey of Anthony Hutton, the Big Brother winner who channeled his personal struggle into profound purpose…
Anthony shares the wild origins of his career, from being an obsessive footballer and ‘closet hairdresser’ to landing a job as a 1970s disco dancer before entering the Big Brother house. His high-profile win led to a brutal crash: his fame dried up, leaving him with a crippling ego and financial ruin that forced him back home. He details his life-changing comeback by moving back into the industry he loved to open Mr. Hutton's Barbers and Bar.
The heart of this episode lies in his vital work for men's mental health. Anthony explains that the confidential conversations in his barber chair, combined with the loss of his grandmother, sparked the powerful "Never Throw In The Towel" project. Hear how he uses the safe, non-judgmental space of the barber chair to combat the UK's "blokey culture" and provide men with the safe space to talk, calling this life of impact "the thing I'm most proud of" in his career
