1. You have you a roof over your head.

This barbershop in China is forced to cut hair outside in rubble at the mercy of the elements.

2. Comfortable Chairs

Imagine having to get your 30 minute haircut sitting on a block of concrete like this one street barbershop in China.

3. Electricity

What if you didn’t have an outlet to plug your clipper into like this Pakistan barbershop? You’d be forced to only do scissor cuts and this would most likely severely hurt your business. What if you had no air condition or heat and you were forced to cut hair in the dessert or in the middle of winter. Do you think that would affect your business?

4. Running Water

How would your barbershop survive if you didn’t have running water like this barbershop in Cambodia? What if you could never wash your hands in between cuts? What if you could never wet your clients’ hair? How smooth would your barbershop run then?

5. You don’t have to wear an Orange Jumpsuit

This is a barbershop located in the Eastern State Penitentiary in Philadelphia. It should make your client appreciate those itchy capes they have to wear.

You may never thought…

Having a roof and four walls, a chair, electricity, running water, and the average barber cape were something to appreciate, but look at what some people will go through just to keep their hair looking good! Whether you’re a shop owner, employee, or client you should appreciate your barbershop every single time you step into it because not everybody is that fortunate!
