  • Watch as I visit Mehmet at his barbershop for an old-school experience in Famagusta. This time, I’m getting a haircut, his famous relaxing massage, and the unique fire-in-the-ears treatment. Plus, experience the pain and precision of eyebrow cleaning-I'm honestly starting to bear it! 😂

      When I had hair, which was a long time ago, I went to a barber who would use razor over comb. I had really thick hair back then and my impression was that it was used to just help thin out the hair and "level" it a bit.

    The good thing about Turkish Barbers they start training since the age of 10 or sometimes even younger so the scissors become a natural extension of their hands. Nowadays many people don't even get experienced by 30 if we think they start their career around the age of 25. At 30 Turkish Barbers already have 20 years of experience😅

The good haircut outweighed the awkwardness.
