To Sit In An Antique Barber Chair - We Have Forgotten What A Worthy Haircut Really Is

When I was just a little boy I can tenderly hark back to sitting on an antique barber chair at the local barber shop and observing my dad getting a haircut and shave. It is not anything like what it is in the present day. There was an knack to it. The barber really cared about what he was doing and it was apparent that my father loved it. Not only that, but the barber shop was where men could socialize with themselves.

The haircuts were at all times so detailed. My pop would be sitting in one of the countless used barber chairs while the barber would purposely take his time to provide the perfect cut. Most men kept their hair short as that was the fashion back then. Following the hair cut was a shave. This was not a shave as we visualize today, with foam from a can and a molded disposable razor. Instead, the lather was put on with a badger brush and a straight razor was used. It appears menacing, but it is the cleanest shave you can ever be given. After the shave was the hot towel that every time felt so good.

The men would principally argue about sports or politics, though the matter of women would come up a great deal. It was a time to be at ease and get to know each of us a bit better. Now, when you get a haircut the chatting is kept to a minimum and you commonly try to get out as soon as you can.

As I stroll by the local barber shop and spot the sign indicating barber chairs for sale, I speculate why this custom has mostly vanished from our culture. Do people not value a proper hair cut and shave anymore? Have we all become so anti-social that spending an afternoon socializing with our pals and neighbors seems like a difficult task? While I am not one to be angry and only desire for "how things were", I do desire that people will think of and value the way it was just a couple decades ago.
