Russell's Hair Cut

Russell got his hair cut at a barber shop right down the road from our house. It was a pretty awesome experience and I was simply watching! This place was extremely old and had not been updated in many many years. There was an older man and woman there running the place and it was only as big as an American style walk in closet. The two chairs really made me feel like we had just walked into a movie from the 1970's. They even heated the warm water on top of the kerosene heater that was about 2 feet from where I was sitting. Here are a few photo's I snapped with my phone. If I could figure out how to turn the shutter sound off of that darned camera I could have easily taken a few more.

I loved the Chairs... The lady did a wonderful job on his hair cut. One of the best I've seen on him in a long time. However, with language barrier and us forgetting to ask in head of time how much it would cost, this was one very expensive hair cut. They charged him 2,200Y. That equals out to be a $30 hair cut!!! Chances are we will not be coming back here unless it's an emergency, need it done right now, kind of thing...

This was the heating water they used to heat the wash clothes and sterilize the tools.

Their old razors which they actually used on him around his ears and lower neck. Pretty sweet!

The lady did all the cutting, but the man blow dried it. It was funny to see the lady and man switch off between costumers and do different things to each.
