      +SPUMPYY Quite expensive. Here in Germany you pay 8-12€ for a cut. Extra 10€ for a shave. Only women pay that much here, around 50€ to 100€ for a single visit at the barber. Insane prices.

      +Glassland Not entirely true. Depends on where you are going and how the quality is. I usually pay about 30€ ($34). 8-12 € is only cheapest buzzcuts and a Turkish salon which is ok but does not respect the head shape in any way the barbers presented in this video do.

    I'm from India, A pro Photographer and I'm a bearded man. I have been following your channel from the last 5 months and It has changed the way I look at myself. Most of your videos have helped me to groom and be articulate with my thought process. This video is amazing and even though, the kind of culture you people have is not in India, I just see these men and wonder how dignified they are and love what they're doing. This is what manliness is all about, Living life with Dignity and Passion.
    Thanks for the video and hope to see more about the US's Southern culture which we don't get to see much in Hollywood films.

    Back when I had hair, I only went to old school barber shops. Nothing like a barber trim and straight razor shave. My dad would take me for my haircuts as a boy and it wasn't until I was older that I realized it was as much about him teaching me how to be a man and relate to other men as it was about the haircut.

    My dad used to take me to the barbershop down the street. Dave, our barber, married an Amish woman so became some-what Amish himself. He picked up barbering after quitting truck driving.
    Always a great cut.
    Now I'm balding, so I don't worry about cutting so much. My wife just gives me buzz cut in the kitchen. But I would like to get a nice hot lather and straight razor trim. Last time I got that was at a nice little shop down the street from the base I was stationed at, run by these nice older Cambodian ladies who did great military cuts, complete with wash, hot towel, straight razor, and a head massage. All for $10.

He's always pretty busy and he has regular locals who come in and just talk man talk (you know, politics, hunting, weather, work stuff, interesting topics of all kinds). He does a hang good job at hair cutting to. That's an important part Haha.

    I am a huge fan of classic barbershops, I'm lucky enough to have one here in my town, and I'm telling ya, there are few things better than the feeling of a fresh haircut and a straight razor shave, it's refreshing, invigorating, and I tell people it's the men's equivalent to a facial, mani/pedi and salon job all wrapped into one.

      Some guys are transgender, thus have a different biological sex than most men, but their gender is still male (gender and sex are not synonyms, they're two different things). Now, I'm not 100% sure whether he meant this or if he meant "whatever sexuality" as in sexual orientation and just misworded it, but if he didn't misword it, then that's what he meant.

      hondah35 hondah35 he did not say this barbershop has any representation of the 1950s. I think he is merely implying that it has a similar uniqueness to it. However, if he did in fact mean that the barbershop in the video has a 50s vibe to it, then he would be correct either way. The way the building is designed and the decorations in it would be enough to guess this is what the owners were going for. Maybe the the late 40s would be more accurate
