Barbers' shops are strange places, aren't they? Lying everywhere are dangerously sharp scissors!
If I secretly left loads of scissors lying around my local Starbucks, I would get in a lot of trouble.
Believe me.
But for a barber, apparently it's fine.

There's a good reason, of course. Barbers need scissors to do their jobs - cutting hair. Without scissors, barbers would be left powerless.
They'd have to chew hair off, like some kind of hair-eating monster.

Don't panic: hair-eating monsters don't exist. But if they did, using a lot of hair gel would no doubt 'defeat' them: for hair gel is full of poison.

And it is poison-pulp (hair gel) that enabled the tallest haircut - a one metre Mohawk, owned by Brighton resident Teddy Binodal!
He told me all about his morning hair preparation routine: but I forgot to write any of it down.

WOW!
