To become a Spartan citizen, men would have to complete a rigorous education and training programme. In true Spartan form, Nomad Barber founder Miguel Gutierrez travelled the world to hone his craft and learn the intricacies of barbering from various cultures. Inspired by his travels, he returned to London and opened up Nomad Barber’s London shop, in turn sharing his wisdom with his team of talented barbers. Taking inspiration from the high standards of the Spartans, the Nomad Barber crew is offering the chance to get one of four slick Spartan Fade hairstyles completely free of charge.
If you’re keen on a Spartan Fade, head down to Boxpark Green in Shoreditch between 10am and 7pm on Wednesday 3rd, Thursday 4th and Friday 5th October. Spartan Fades will be offered on a first come first serve basis.
The #SpartanFade pop-up will also have a 4K TV and console so you can have a play of Assassin’s Creed Odyssey while your new hairstyle is being crafted.
Assassin’s Creed Odyssey is an ambitious action role-playing game that places choice at the centre of the experience. Players will customise weapons and gear, master and equip new special abilities, and charge into massive battles between Sparta and Athens, pitting hundreds of soldiers against each other. With the entire country of Greece to discover, from pristine beaches to vibrant cities, from the heights of snowy mountain peaks to the depths of the Aegean Sea, players will encounter Ancient Greece’s famous figures and myths as they live their own odyssey.
Assassin’s Creed Odyssey will release worldwide on Friday, 5th October 2018.
