My favorite barber for more than 30 years passed away last year. He first opened his shop in the mid 50's. He became a very good friend and I'll always miss him.
I'm glad to say my barber has cut my hair since I was a child, cut my father's hair when he was a child and was my grandfather's go-to barber. When you have a third generation customer, that alone speaks for your skill. 2019 and he still uses the tonic, hot shaving cream and straight razor. Good old fashioned hair cutting.
In the '50s, as a kid, we lived in a 4-flat in Chicago, with a barber shop in the 1st floor front. We lived in the 2nd foor, rear. I used to be able to walk downstairs and enter the back door of the shop without walking outside. Lots of memories. The barbers were a father and son.
50s post-WWII was a horrible time period for anyone of color in America. While there were some opportunities every advancement was met with negative paranoia from the ruling class from race-mixing, immigration, and communism taking over. Why the 60s time of change was a needed and necessary time period. Unfortunately here it is 60 years later and we are still fighting for equality. Not missing anything from this horrendous time. The only thing cool about the 50s was everyone valued dressing professionally, i.e. getting good haircuts - which I am glad they stated evolved from Egypt.
@@Tony-yg9mc see you wouldn't get that in a classic barbershop, men (or at least men of class) didn't all sit around bitching about their "friends" behind their back. Men told it to your face and in this extremely PC era we live in I feel that comment is now more than ever necessary...I don't care if it's sexist or not (and this is coming from a 22 year old). These kinds of barbershops unfortunately have died out, people who have a real personality are far and few between these days.
I'm lucky enough to have a barber down the street who's shop and approach to the craft hasn't changed much from that depicted in this short of the 1950's (though the shop opened in the 60's). This is one of the few services that is better without modernization. Thanks for uploading.
I had the same barber for the first 28 years of my life. He barbered for about 40 years and just when he started getting good at it, he decided he didn't want to make a career out of it and retired. I sure do miss the old barber shops.
@RON776 I go to an awesome barbershop.. there was a time I was going to a salon -actually it was one of those old grandma beauty shops .. the 2 elderly beauticians in there did not scalp me like some of the barbers in the area .. yeah it was awkward at first and a bit embarrassing sitting in there getting shampooed and “creme rinsed” by the old ladies but I got more relaxed after a few visits and for less money she shampooed my hair and gave me a better haircut than the barbers in the area .
Contrary to the opinion of most modern hairstylists these days, most of the haircuts of the '30s to '50s were not fades. Not to say fades weren't around, but on the contrary, barbers usually just sheared lightly all around the head to even layers. You usually dug out the clippers to get rid of the fuzzy stuff on the neck, or even the back out. Then your barber gelled you up and combed a fresh hairline and you were done. Unless you wanted things faded like Johnny Unitas, but that's a different cut.
The cuts shown here are still blends/fades. They're just not "bald" fades. Anytime you have a shorter length on the sides and longer length on top that are blended into each other with no hard line (chili bowl) it's technically still a fade
People had more class and dignity back then. Nowadays,someone will look like they rolled out of bed and go to the Wal Mart in his pajamas and slippers.
great video. I would love to see more "america works". I still will only use old fashioned barbers (now typically elderly italian men or newer russian immigrants for me in NYC).
Wonderful! A friend of mine, now deceased, was a teen in the 50's. He used to tell me that the 50's was a decade when everything was IMPROVING (technology, inventions, etc) instead of being gradually cheapened beginning in the 60's. Also, there was a sense of HOPE then....you could achieve almost anything you wanted to. The 60's with Vietnam, hippies, "free love" and other crap, was the beginning of the end. It's been downhill ever since.
Judyfan yup beginning of degeneracy and destruction. Blame the government for introducing their drugs for their satanic agendas, once those drugs got pumped people lost their minds and all sense of morality and logic. Sad really sad, the issue is we are all so broken right now due to the degeneracy and lack of proper morality. And yet you still have crazy rich corporate elites that want more and more, they want to drain the American people. All people do now a days is work work work with no sense of anything. They preached love, what they got was the opposite, there was legit love before all that nonsense.
@@bluehavencd not always, everyone wasn't racist and not everything is permanently progressing, yes there was racist people as today, but there was also other things that where better, less stress, a higher marriage rate even to the point blacks had more kids in wedlock than whites at one point, you could work a job and afford a home, car vacation, etc on 1 income sold as equality to you but to the elite as 2 working body's for the price of 1.
Yes she did! As a Stylist myself, I couldn’t believe that was the end result. The way she was “sliding” her shears, starting from the bottom just made me cringe. I’ve never seen anyone demonstrate a cut, cutting bottom to top. It’s a fast way to mess someone’s hair up royally.
There is actually more to this video, I have the hard copy of it. When this video ends, the guy looks into the beauty shop to see his wife and daughter still getting "fixed up" the cut to inside the beauty shop, and then cut back out to see the man having a cigerette, then back to the shop, and back out to the man now there are a few cigerette butts on the ground.
I remember as a kid at 7.00 being a kid like that with my dad at a barber shop and the extra step chair for being short kid. Those days are long gone now . People back then took the time to do things in life ,work right and took pride in what they did for a living. Not anymore, sad thing and life back then was simple living compared to today stuff..
I only embarrassed my Dad one time in the Barbershop. And he never over-whipped like many dads did back then, but he whipped my ass. From then on, we went to the barbershop every three weeks to get a regular, without incident
@@santicheeks1106 arguing about the type of haircut and not letting the barber cut enough off - when it was stfu and get a regular white-wall cheesy hairdo time.
Hello. I want to use this video for my tv-program "Busines plan". It is on the Hromadske tv in Ukraine. We are making tv program about barbers. Can i take yours video? What i need to do?
Oh the times... Hehe My dad was a strict Christian conservative. And I had Long hair down to my back Inspired by George Harrison. I remember my dad taking me to the barber for a clean buzz.
Gengar Bully .. I loved George Harrison.. his hair was inspiring for us who wanted long hair .. my brother and I never had hair past the bottom of the neck.. dad took us to the old barber who always scalped us... or if the barber was away he’d take us to our neighbors basement beauty shop where an old lady hairdresser shampooed our hair with “girly” smelling shampoo before shearing us with the clippers ...although I actually liked the haircuts by her than the barber .. i didn’t really like it when she washed my hair..
.. and the beauticians/hairdressers wore starched white or pink uniforms with the white shoes. I remembered when I got a haircut from one of those elderly old school beauticians instead of a barber. Good haircut .. surprisingly better than a barber. Just a bit awkward when she shampooed my hair.. and a little embarrassed .
Rejects of society these days trying to sell "artistic persuasion" in my honest opinion. Some are talented but most are just freaks looking make a cheap buck.
I remember my grandpa telling me that they don't do it like they used too any more alot of people just skin you quick for money and don't take time I can see that now tbh it's hard to find a good barber
I was in that era, and all the men would be smoking their ears off, and boys would be looking at magazines like Police Gazette and True, mags your mother didn't want you to see.
Barbers like this made me want to be a barber. The only diffrrence is the air would be thick with cigarette smoke and men talking about sports and how much they hate their wives.
No ESPN on the TV. No bootleg DVDs for sale. No fades. No designs. No arguing about boxing. No loud music. This looks nothing like any barbershop I’ve ever been to.
@@redcomic619 you'd get clowned for a fade crew cut? What kind of cuts did yall like at your school? purple and green braids? Also tf does it have to do with your first comment, you said no fades, which is wrong he was fading that kids head at 7:11
Lord Enki That qualifies as a fade? That looks like some corny style you’d get at Supercuts. Nothing fresh about that cut at all. Nobody where I came up wore colored braids, that’s the young generation’s thing, but we did rock low skin fades, hi tops, maybe a half moon in the Caesar. Grown man ish.
Fades been around for a while.. also you might consider going to an old school barber shop.. there's still plenty around. Where I go, I get served whiskey and a cigar. And classic music.
"This is a mans world where women do not go" my girlfriend goes to a barbershop and has a high and tight cut, and my hair is long down to my mid back. I go to a unisex salon.
For a 1950s thing, this was surprisingly not sexist. I expected them to say something like, "women are more concerned about their appearance," or something, but nope. They pointed out that men are just like women. This pleases me.

Metalman200xdamnit I must admit, for many years I went to a salon. Keep in mind, the reason barbering has become popular again is due in part to men wearing much shorter hair styles again. Back in the late 70's and 80's I as well as many others, had much longer hair. It was the style.
Tony Marinelli I was a kid in the 80's,I remember those horrors well. The shit ton of Aqua Net,and you could not smoke easily without your hair going up in flames.
Jeez, it’s like some women want a haircut that a traditional stylist can’t do. A stylist can only do basic cuts, while a barber takes a lot of time in his craft. And by the way, there are female barbers and male stylists, it’s just a choice of how deep you want to go into education. God your ignorant.
I was going to a beauty shop for haircuts .. the beauticians did a better job on me than the barbers .. my friends thought I was crazy yet they kept complaining how the barbers butcher them. Yes it was awkward at first being a 25 yr old financial career guy sitting in a beauty shop with pink wall paper and geriatric ladies , having the elderly old school beauticians put pink or blue floral capes on you , shampoo and cut my hair by the window where people can stare at me and leaving smelling of hairspray and perm solution . I got over it after a few visits but it was well worth a good haircut .
@Dudeawesome1000.. it was probably no different than when I went to a “ unisex” shop for a haircut instead of a barber and had my hair touched and got shampooed by a 75 yr old gray haired chubby beautician lady.. and I was 20 at the time. They actually cut my hair better than the barber but I wasn’t expecting to get my hair washed so it was a bit of a surprise when this old lady said she was going to shampoo my hair .. was the first time I had my hair washed in a shop so I was a bit antsy in the chair and felt a little embarrassed getting my hair washed by this old school beautician although she was very nice and did a good job very thorough . But she had to keep telling me to relax and keep my head all the way back as I sensed she knew I was a bit nervous.

Metalman200xdamnit I must admit, for many years I went to a salon. Keep in mind, the reason barbering has become popular again is due in part to men wearing much shorter hair styles again. Back in the late 70's and 80's I as well as many others, had much longer hair. It was the style.

I was a kid in the 80's,I remember those horrors well. The shit ton of Aqua Net,and you could not smoke easily without your hair going up in flames.
Tony Marinelli
As long as it works for you,who cares right?
Metalman200xdamnit Yes sir, at that time, it was all about the women. Cheers
I'm not sure this is real: the barber isn't smoking while cutting hair...
Barbershops = Men
Salons = Women
But now a days lots of women that are lesbian go to barbershops.
How the times have changed
Yeah true, imagine what it will be like 10 years from now
Jeez, it’s like some women want a haircut that a traditional stylist can’t do. A stylist can only do basic cuts, while a barber takes a lot of time in his craft. And by the way, there are female barbers and male stylists, it’s just a choice of how deep you want to go into education. God your ignorant.
@@buff.berserker You know he just said how we have changed right? No need to blow a fuze bud.
I was going to a beauty shop for haircuts .. the beauticians did a better job on me than the barbers .. my friends thought I was crazy yet they kept complaining how the barbers butcher them. Yes it was awkward at first being a 25 yr old financial career guy sitting in a beauty shop with pink wall paper and geriatric ladies , having the elderly old school beauticians put pink or blue floral capes on you , shampoo and cut my hair by the window where people can stare at me and leaving smelling of hairspray and perm solution . I got over it after a few visits but it was well worth a good haircut .
Why does mustache wax have to be so expensive to purchase? At least classic pomades such as Murray's Pomade is cheap. :D
Kevin Ceniceros damn your everywhere cat! and nice Contour btw.
No friegan desgraciaron a esa niña
These people would have never known that they would be on sum random kids phone
@kevinbbarber Not saying that at all but you almost always see black people getting there hair cut by black barbers.
2:09 Who IS that guy? Some weirdo who walked in off the street? Peter Lorre voice: "I just love touching girls' hair!"
They hate you
Golly. Gosh. Gee Wilakers.
I find it just a bit creepy that a balding man I assume is in his fifties is touching women's hair. Maybe it's just me.
Yeah just you, it’s his job 🤣
@Dudeawesome1000.. it was probably no different than when I went to a “ unisex” shop for a haircut instead of a barber and had my hair touched and got shampooed by a 75 yr old gray haired chubby beautician lady.. and I was 20 at the time. They actually cut my hair better than the barber but I wasn’t expecting to get my hair washed so it was a bit of a surprise when this old lady said she was going to shampoo my hair .. was the first time I had my hair washed in a shop so I was a bit antsy in the chair and felt a little embarrassed getting my hair washed by this old school beautician although she was very nice and did a good job very thorough . But she had to keep telling me to relax and keep my head all the way back as I sensed she knew I was a bit nervous.
