There is a newly-arrived Barber just opened his shop in Eymet (Rue du Temple). At last, a proper gentleman’s barber. Just had the best haircut I’ve had in France. No more hairdressers for me, this guy (Sion… really SHORN, that’s his name) is extremely talented and has been at his craft for 25 years.

Hi Chris… please will you amend your Registration to show your Full Name as per T&C.
If you are unsure how to do that… simply put your full name here… and I will amend it for you.
Cheers.
My beloved cuts mine, ok I’m not proud, but it’s cheap 
Last time I visited a barber, I thought earned his dosh, was 30odd years ago in Greece, for a shave, one and only time, but I still remember it, the best shave I’ve ever had. 
I’ve always had male barbers since childhood, until - that is - I came France where, in our town, there are five feminin-masculin hairdressing salons all staffed by women.
It takes time to become accustomed to the lighter touch and general womanly disposition of a coiffeuse, but I find it very soothing and technically the styling is closer to what I prefer than when a male barber does it.
I’ve never had anyone shave my face, but I’ve performed many shaves on other men myself, as a nurse, including pre-operative nipple-to-knee shaves which were obligatory, and performed with a cut-throat razor.

Not having a great deal of hair ‘up top’ I use an electric ‘sheep shearer’ myself and just run over whats left once a month down to a number 1 or 2 thickness.
The beard is another whole ball game…

Yes, it’s a very happy snap of you, Bill. You’d also look a saucy salt in my cap. My son brought it from Sicily for me, it’s a traditional pattern, worn like a beret.
Did you wear a cap at the helm, Bill, with an anchor symbol, like Captain Birds Eye? 
No cap Peter, woolly ‘at in Northern climes, had a fancy uniform cap with anchor etc when in the Merch, don’ think I ever wore it, last I saw of that, I lent it to a chap for a fancy dress party, never got it back
