Pak cut

Going to the barber here in the Gulf is part of the social make-up of weekly life. At least for me, growing up in India, a trip to the barber was hardly an indulgence. And even though you eventually built a bond with the hair-cutter, it wasn’t like you sat down after, drank tea and discussed politics. That’s exactly the way it is here. Barbers here are also representative of the many nationalities that reside here. I, of course, not being racist when it comes to shearing my ever depleting locks have tried all. The Pakistanis are the best.
