๐Ÿ’ˆ ์„ฑ์šฐ์ด์šฉ์› Haircut & Hair Styling in South Koreaโ€™s Oldest Barbershop | Seongu Barber Shop Seoul

Haircut and hair styling in the historic ์„ฑ์šฐ์ด์šฉ์› Seongu Barbershop in Seoul, South Korea. In 1927, Mr. Leeโ€™s grandfather opened the barbershop. At that time, he was the second Korean who was given a permit for barbering by the occupying Japanese. It was in the 1960s when Mr. Lee began cutting hair. He worked with his dad all the way up until the 1970s when his dad decided to retire. We stopped by the shop to film on a weekday afternoon thinking perhaps it might be quieter during a weekday as opposed to the weekend. We found Mr. Lee had a regular stream of customers coming by the shop so when it was our turn, I hopped into the chair and the camera started to roll! Mr. Lee is a little over 5โ€™ tall so uses a footstool to stand on while working on his customers. Youโ€™ll also see him using potato starch in my hair as a visual aid. Part 2 of this video include a traditional shave and hair wash ๐Ÿ‘‰๐Ÿผ
