As told by his mother Elaine Doring.
‘I gave birth to Nick Doring 28 years ago. Nick was the last of my 9 children. Nick was somewhat of a troublemaker when he was younger and after so many kids I often told him; ‘If you were the first you’d been the last’. He insists that it’s just because I would of realised I got it right the first time. He’s a nice kid so I humour him. Denial is just a river in Eygpt... that would have worked better if I said it not wrote it.

Nick started his career cleaning brushes for Mambo artists before he even started shaving. He was a late bloomer and doesn’t like to talk about it. Although, he didn’t manage to cultivate a descent beard in the 8 years since he has managed to work for a large list of international clients like Dell, Mambo, Playstation, Google, Vodafone, Movement Mag, Yen, Design is kinky and more!
