    This has seriously inspired me to become a barber. I'm in an Early College High School and i've always dreamed of becoming a computer technician but until I saw a video by Daniel Alfonso (Hanz de Fuko hairstylist) barbering really took me by surprise. Daniel is really a huge inspiration for me and will continue to be. I have one more year left of school and I really feel that barbering will be my path.

    Bingo, the man nailed it ... 'Make less money and be happy' - that's me through and through. Apparently the job satisfaction of Barbers as a profession is very high - it's a social activity and you get to see the product of your labour walk out the door with a smile on their faces.

    My mom's grandfathers were both barbers in Buffalo, NY. They met as business partners and moved to LA together to start a barber shop in downtown in the 1930s. One of their sons married the other's daughter and the rest is history. They ran a barber shop in the basement of the Security Pacific Bank building in downtown LA for 25 years or so. This video brought back lots of memories of them.

    I love this video and I love the mentality behind these guys entire set up I work in a boring old man barbershop in nj and I'm trying to bring a younger feel and a more modern approach to an old feeling establishment. People ask me all the time why would I want to become a barber and I tell them well who is gonna cut your hair when gippetto the Guido barber finally kicks the bucket?!?! I'm glad these guys are doing something I can relate to and if I was on the west coast I'd be working for these guys for sure.

    i typically go to a barber for my cuts. This last time I got my hair cut at a salon, because I was there waiting for someone. The way it came out, I was horrified. I told her to finish up her cut and paid (yes, I paid, she's only doing her job). I went home and was very close to shaving it all off; instead i went to work the next day with my head down. Immediately following I went right back to my barber and he was able to salvage it.
    TL;DR: Thank goodness for good barbers who makes cutting hair their art-form.

    • @chuy8356

      Never go to a salon for a mans haircut! Barbers are for mens hair.

    • @Kncld
      @Kncld 9 років тому

      ive been shaving my head for 10+ years and im ready for something new, the closest barber to me is 2 hours away should i travel that far to get the first cut of something new just to try the new haircut or just go to a salon to have it done?

    • @Kncld
      @Kncld 9 років тому

    A great way to spend the weekend, or after a hectic day at work, is a nice professional shave and simple facial massage at a vintage and characterful barber shop. When I'm back in the States for a short while, I'll always visit The Modern Man barber shop in Portland. Lovely old school charm, with an adjoining PUB where you'll enjoy your fav whisky or other drinks, have a cigar while waiting, or after your shave and hair cut.
    BLISS!.
