You work for 40vrs to have $1m in your retirement, Meanwhile some people are putting just $10k in a meme coin for just few months and now they are multi millionaires. I pray that anyone who reads this will be successful in life.
As a beginner what do I need to do? How can I invest, on which platform? If you know any please share
The very first time we tried, we invested $1000 and after a week, we received $7500. That really helps us a lot to pay up our bills.
Still regret that I sold my bitcoin early last year, even after my colleague insisted we shouldn't.
Please Is Bitcoin still a safe buy to outperform the market this year? I still kept my money in the money market and with over $120k maturing soon, I plan investing well in it. Here for ideas
As a beginner investor, it's essential for you to have a mentor to keep you accountable. Myself, I'm guided by Anna Davis. A widely known crypto consultant
YES!!! That's exactly her name (Anna Davis) so many people have recommended highly about her and am just starting with her 😊 from Brisbane Australia🇦🇺
When the Barber is wearing a GMT Master, you're not getting much change from a tenner.
155 quid for haircut n shave
@@Arfabiscuit Wait is this a joke or are you serious?
@@Jomaxp$120 for a combo haircut and hot shave in their Chicago shop. Not too bad really given the time used.
@@Jomaxp Yep he is serious. I think the max package costs £250.
@@EK00481 Well, the part with stopping by there on my next journey to London it’s probably gone then
The vibe and atmosphere in a high end barbershop like this is always so incredibly relaxing and comforting.
Never thought I would spend fifteen minutes watching Haircut and Shave, fascinating...
You have obviously not seen haircut Harry then
Never thought I would spend fifteen minutes watching this while being bald lmao
When your barber wears one of the most sought after Rolex watches….. you know he’s good!!!!
more like you know hes expensive.
@@mack0ka 🤷🏻♂️, yes I’m sure he’s very expensive, but he’s obviously very good, and I’m sure his rent is ridiculously high where he is
just for information - its either a "Hommage" looking quite similar - or a fake - wrong endlinks and no cyclops.. :D I am a watch guy and didnt like seeing this on his wrist. Video is very good in general. Thank you
Already feel more civilized after watching this for 10 minutes. Very James Bond
Lived in London a few years for work. T&H was about 15 minutes from my office building and I'd go nearly every week for a shave or haircut. The service was always phenomenal. One of the things I miss most about living there.
I miss the knife crime, the homeless, the beggars and, most of all, the smell of shit.
@@realfacthunt😂
Gave this as an experience for my husband and nephew. They loved their time there and said they were treated exactly like this ~ so this treatment from T & H is not just for celebrities or RUclips. This is how they do business. 💯
What do they charge?
@@heywoodjerbloumeCheck their website for their service menu and pricing. I may be in London in late summer and I am seriously think of getting the shave before my flight home. £55 for that. But that scalp massage sure looked relaxing. 🤔
@@heywoodjerbloume 155 quid for haircut n shave
Local Turkish place does the same for £25
@@rajmehta6210is it as good with good products as well? Not hating I’m just generally curious
Superb cut… Barber wearing a Batman Rolex👑
'Batgirl' on the jubilee bracelet I believe, but yes very nice!
I sincerely hope, we don't loose this tradition, like most things that are quickly slipping away. Really enjoyed this video.
Most of England is saturated with Turkish Barbers, which are money laundering fronts and drug dealers… some small villages have 3 of them - absolutely no way a small village has enough men to sustain 3 barbers….
I have no idea why the algorithm suggested this video, but I'm glad it did. Subscribed. 👍
Before I lost my hair, I'd been going to T&H for about 30 years. I still remember going with my grandfather in the 1980s to their Old Bond Street address, then Grafton Street, before they moved to St James's. First it was Wendy who did my hair, then mainly Ola. Michael too sometimes, and even Mr Dennis would have a go every so often (when he could stand cutting it as short as I liked it as a student!), and there was always the friendly face of Mr James clearing up my bright red hair. A lovely little oasis of calm, and a fond memory. I recently found some big old T&H glass jars (presumably once for storing or disinfecting equipment?) in an antiques shop in Morayshire, and these are now part of my bathroom!
MY challenge these days is finding a quality barber to deal with my decidedly thin hair. It looks its best very short. Of course, it is the details around the edges that count the most. Then their are an old man's bushy eyebrows and the extraneous hairs that pop out of the ears and so on.
@@jamesellsworth9673 Sadly I think my barber days are over aside from the odd beard trim. Just so much quicker with some scissors, a trimmer, etc.
I was at Trufitt and Hill last year for a 50th birthday shave,
Travelled in from Toronto!
Micheal was the best,
It was an amazing experience.
Wisest 15 mins I spent on YT tbh
After countless years and countless wasted dollars going to corporate hack shop, I finally splurged on a true gentleman’s barber shop I found in a nearby town. Maybe not quite the legacy of T&H, but man! What a difference! Worth every penny and I’ve never looked back. Now I want to go to London!
What a sublime experience delivered with mastery by a true consummate professional. Excellent video. Bravo.
Even I felt relaxed just watching this.
I love the ticking of the clock in the background
Observing the entire process has been very enjoyable
My fantasy would be to spend a month in London, staying at the Savoy and seeing all of the sights, a concert at The Royal Albert Hall and O2, visiting Saville Row and having a full custom fitted bespoke wardrobe created with John Lobb shoes and boots, Lock & Co hats and all of the related accessories including custom luggage to bring it all back in. As many trips to this marvelous barber shop as I could manage - all the while chauffeured back and forth in a classic Rolls Royce or Daimler and dining at all of the classic spots. Always loved the classic British gentleman's style and manner - still do. Great post!
keep consooooooming
Just go. Do it!
@@CaptainWillard830 OK! Could you spot me about $150,000? A month at The Savoy would be about $35,000 alone! I'm good for it - I swear!
As I was preparing to visit London several years ago, I booked an appointment with T&H. It was one of my ‘bucket list’ items and I felt it was worth every penny. The staff were delightful and made for a great experience.
Now that’s a service I would pay for!!!
Great video. Barber was a master. What a wonderful advertisement for Truefitt.
Thanks for the hard work, Tom.
Thank you
Getting shaved with a clean face is the most Kirby Allison thing that you could do...
Kirby is silly.
If he wore a bowler hat, it would be Kirby's derby. If he suffered from a lack of vitamin C, it would be scurvy Kirby's derby. If he staggered, it would be swervy scurvy Kirby's derby. There is obviously some arcane truth hidden here...or perhaps not.🤔
Kirby annoys me.
kirby tries way too hard
@@thlee3 he's a wanker dressed like a banker
5:50 this suave hunk is wearing a Rolex GMT Master-II "Batgirl" - on a jubilee bracelet..
Pure class.
The Englishmen may be proud and thankful to have such fine traditional companies. Please do this for the next centuries as well! I hope in heaven men will need such shops too.
Come to England and you will see, even in small villages 2, 3, 6 ‘Turkish Barbers’… which amount to drug and money laundering fronts. UK is a sinking ship sadly, invaded daily by 3rd world savages.
Pinnacle of classic work! Great stuff!
Another fabulous video in this series thanks so much for showcasing and educating
Amazing place, pure British class.
Your videos never cease to amaze me.
This barber is the Maradona of barbers.
Thank you 😉
My new favorite ASMR video. Cheers!
I really enjoyed this video, having never experienced anything like this. The presenter is excellent, seemed to enjoy his experience and offered an interesting historical perspective. Thank you.
As a gentleman who lost his hair some thirty years ago. I am very jealous!
Same. Not 30 years though
Really Truefitt & Hill is a must
in London. I bought there some
shaving creams and aftershaves. The quality is
superb indeed. Thank you
for your presentation, it was
amazing. Cheers.
That really looked like an experience, not just a trip to the barber!
Wonderful video, keep up the good stuff!
Absolutely brilliant video, it has got to rank in the top 3 of this series. Inspired me to put some of Truefitt's West Indian Limes cologne on.
Barber is a honorable profession
LOVING THIS SERIES!!🥃✨
When returning to the guards depotback in the early 70's i and my fellow cavalry men would have a similar cut and shave on the toilets of waterloo stn.
Indeed always an indulgence when in London followed by Curzon books near by ❤
What a great video. It looked incredibly relaxing
Money and time well spent - looking sharp Tom!
It’s on my list. Wonderful. PureClass cheers
Tom you're a real g love the content certified
Who knew watching a gentleman get his hair cut and pampered with an exquisite shave would be so much fun! Indeed, somewhat riveting! Cheers!
Amazing place full of history, and it is brilliant to see a professional so dedicated to their art too. Wish I could afford it. Many thanks for sharing such a beautiful insight to another world.
Thank you
The class and civilization in this video makes me hate every single haircut I have ever received in all my neighborhood barbershops. 🤣🤣🤣
I have always wanted to get a haircut and a shave at a very nice establishment such as this. Maybe someday. Thank you for the video I really enjoy all of your work. Very best regards Ron
One of my adoptive father's favorite place❤❤❤👍🏻
What a craftsman.
Brilliant barbers. We need more places like this.
Excellent video.
Very nice. Excellent service. Will visit there asap.
What a delightful video, subscribed for more.
Must be really relaxing.
I wish we had someone similar here in Germany.
Next time I am up in town I am definitely getting my hair cut by Micheal, I could do with a nice old pamper. Great video as always.
What a great channel 👌👌👌
Loved this video. Great barber 💈
Thank you
Fascinating. Who would have thought watching someone having a haircut and shave would be so entertaining.
Love it .
Great Insight👍
Lucky man. Loved the haircut and wish more men had a similar one.
Just purchased some 1805 shaving crème after watching you video 😁excellent video and all the videos you make 👍👏 Thank you Sir 💂♂️I was a sapper too short for the Guards 😂
Legend !
Great place I try to go when I am in London. Pleased to see Michael 👏🏻👍🏻🤜🏻
Thank you
Tie, waistcoat, batgirl and skill. Well done, sir.
Used to be a great place. The team offered a nice single malt after the treatment. There was never electric clippers used. Just scissors over comb. The shave was really good.
Not too shabby !
Awesome!
Decades ago, I stayed at Brown's Hotel. Their premises included 'Henry, the Gentleman's Hair Dresser.' Whenever I visited, I got an Edwardian haircut and Henry's own line of hair oils and whatever. He is also a barber worth remembering.
Excellent
Very wonderful experience nice 👌 😊 🙏😎🙌
How delightfull.
Awesome ❤❤
Great work and it is nice to see that we finally have an Englishman to promote the British heritage brands. Hopefully this will attract a more dignified crowd to these locations. While I also admire the work which Kirby Allison also does, it is an unfortunate tragedy that it attracts an obnoxious crowd of American tourists to these locations! Specially at Franco's!!!
I had a facial treatment here in the morning of my wedding day. Awesome experience with an abundance of history.
Then it all went downhill
Happily married with a new born on the way. Karma comes to those who are jealous 😂
used to go there when I was in London for work. paid for myself tho. A lovely retreat.
I like to get a shave and haircut when I go on vacation. A couple of years ago, I went to Taylors of Old Bond Street. It was...disappointing. Not really the barber's fault, but the shop set up felt like an afterthought rather than a proper barbershop. Just a tiny room towards the back with lots of staff foot traffic going back and forth. Last year, I went to T&H. Much, much better experience from beginning to end. Lovely shop. Outstanding shave and haircut. Next month, I'm back in London and have lined up an appointment with Geo F Trumper at their St James shop. Can't wait!
experience is the key word
Whilst in India, a street barber cut my hair, vigorously massaged my scalp, put a finger in each of my ears and left me thoughroughly 'barbered'.
Worse places one could put their fingers, I suppose.
At least it would have cost a lot less 😂
We have a Truefitt & Hill in the QVB in Sydney.
They have an outlet at Majestic Hotel in Kuala Lumpur. A great experience.
I prefer GEO F. Trumpers on Curzon Street. I remember the first time I went there for a haircut and a shave was in the mid 1980’s, waiting in the little seating area for my barber Park was available. The Duke of Westminster was reading Country Life magazine on my left and the actor from the original Mission Impossible series Peter Graves was sitting to my right.
I left Trumpers to come to Truefitt & Hill because it's better.
I used to like Ivan's in Jermyn Street when I was in my twenties. Gone now unfortunately. Like my twenties and a lot of my hair.
I worked at that store
👍 interesting thanks
Lovely old clock ticking in the background. Never had a shave in the UK, plenty in Syria and Turkey in the 80s, about 20p then.
I have never been so relaxed
I have my hair cut there by Jason and literally nowhere else compares!
love
I dream of having a place like this here in Paris !
Superb! I LOVE the look of the experience, but wearing THAT watch as a barber, i'm not TOO sure i could afford it!😂👏🤙👍👌🤘✌🖖🍻
I go to the Truefitt &Hill in Chicago and Toronto. Ask for Joe in Chicago and Dave in Toronto. Fan of their Portugal hair tonic.
Wow, didn't know they had one in Toronto. I went there on vacation three times and did a lot of cool things, next time I want to have more of a "London in Toronto" feeling by visiting classic men's clothing shops and the like.
Anyone have any experience with the haircut services at Taylor of Old Bond Street? Good? Thanks!
Beautiful haircut. Nice work. I’m fortunate to be able to use the same barber who cut my hair the last 4 years I served the U.S. Marine Corps. No more “medium reg” cuts for me. Today, Lilly cuts my hair in the traditional business man’s “Don Draper” style…for $17 plus tip 😊
My first barber used a blade for some of the hair cut.
Shoutout the Irish please do a video about Irish Gentlemen in London! Much love!
Guys rock
quite nice
West Indian Limes is my Favorite!
What was the tonic used on your hair?
