Momentos: Barbers, various (vol. 3, Indonesia, Japan & Sri Lanka)

Lovely Dessy in Sanur, Bali has a little indoor/outdoor barber shop where they also offer massage and cool beverages. She’s trimmed up my beard several times and trimmed up my hair

While i started enjoying haircuts when i found a barber shop which also offered libations, good tunes, pinball and the like,… since “the illness” I made a list of things I can do which involves sitting down, but gets me out of the house, and leaves me with a feeling of satisfaction.

These include: making scrapbooks, seeing matinée movies, sitting in parks under a tree, getting my beard professionally trimmed (rather than chopping at it myself) plus trim up the haircut,… as well as pedicures documented elsewhere.

This assortment features a few barbers in Indonesia and Japan.

Just before coming to Japan, this rock n roll gent at Kenedy (sic) a sorta new (at the time) and hip (so to speak) barber shop in Sanur, Bali.

While rambling, i like to seek out the hole-in-the-wall, no fuss, traditional barbers and enjoy a leisurely visit. Its hit or miss sometimes but ya know, hair grows back right?

Sometimes, not always, i grab a snap with the barber or the shop or me before and after… sometimes i don’t so you won’t see those. Oh sometimes i recall names and/or locations, this is not meant to be comprehensive, just amusing and vaguely documentary.

Just before getting married, i visited Mr. Nakamura in Omoto area of Okayama along with Takeshi (my father-in-law) for a haircut and beard trim. We enjoyed conversation and he gave a smoke for the road.

Update: 

Found this lost snap of a cut by a fella near Galle Sri Lanka, not the best but hey, you pay for the cut, you roll on
