Description:"The Barber Shop, in black communities it is an essential part of everyday life. During the 1980's and early 1990's I would visit the barber's on a weekly basis. Waiting up to 2 hours for a 10 minute masterpiece ...however Saturday's were never the same once I learnt to shave my own head. I'll never forget the immortal words echoed by barber's who have laid their hands on my cranium over the years "Tun u head to de left an keep still... or I'll cut u"." Pogus Caesar, February 2003
