The Haircut

       

One afternoon while in Tampa, Ybor City Robbie and I stumbled upon a great little barbershop in the back of a nice Cigar store/bar.  Robbie decided to have a straight razor shave and I, mixed with a couple of beers and the pressure of a South Pole deployment coming soon decided to join in the fun too!

Scott was the barber.  Never have I met anyone who knew more about barbering that Scott.  He even told us about his extensive collection of straight razors, including a US Army surgical razor from the late 1800's.  Scott is 23 and plays the stand-up bass in a swing band.  Another interesting tidbit about Scott;  He is married, yet his wife would not allow him to have a bachelor party.  I was his last client of the day before he left to a bachelor party at Mons Venus for his buddy.  As of the date of these photos, Scott had never had a lap dance!  Poor guy!
