- I've always wanted to get my hair cut at a barber shop somewhere around the world, but as a woman it's not very common in many countries to find a woman in a barber shop. But it has finally happened, and here in Egypt no less! Follow along and check out what a local barber shop in Egypt looks like, as well as getting a glimpse into Egyptian Coptic culture, some local food and all around Egyptian humor during the cut.

This guy was so kind. When the other gentleman was saying he wanted to go out with you and you didn't understand, the guy protected you by telling you the guy was saying he wanted to travel outside of Egypt. What a nice guy ❤
Yo! G! I was born in Egypt, moved to LA when I was nine years old, my Arabic is not bad. When I hear the somewhat East coast / Latin / smoothie of loveliness that is you speak Arabic, the hamsters that run the conveyor belt for my brain, trip, fall, and literally roll on the floor laughing with joy...I'm a budget traveler as well and was raised Coptic. You've opened my eyes to how the country is more progressive than I thought.
Lol. Awesome man, I appreciate that. I definitely need to work on my Arabic though. Thanks so much for watching!
I'm here in Egypt also. I'm from North Carolina. Thank you for doing what you do. I enjoy your videos very much . I have learned several key words in Arabic because of you lol.
Rock on...
Thanks
Ahaha, awesome!!! Thank you so much for watching my videos, and really glad you find them helpful! Where are you in Egypt now?
@@Gventures King Faisal st ...Giza .
I have been in Egypt several times. Can't seem to stay away lol
I really enjoy your adventures .
@@nancie91165 Haha, yeah it seems to have that effect on people. I came for 3 months of travel and just never left 😅 Thanks Nancie!
LOVE your hair, and I absolutely love the color. Definitely fits your personality🥰
Haha, thank you!!!
I've been watching your videos in no particular order, and have been enjoying them! I know there are many differences in culture between the US and Egypt, particularly when it comes to men and women's interactions. I'd be interested to see more content featuring Egyptian women's lives, although it seems easier to make friends with men. Thank you for sharing your experiences with us!
Thank you! I think there is content like that out there, perhaps just search for Egyptian women's channels. As for my videos: most of my friends are male, I have always had more male friends in my life than women, long before coming to Egypt. The women that I do know here tend to live far away from me, so I don't see them as often. I will say, as a general statement, it is harder (at least for me) to make friends with the women here because they often speak less English than men (this is a GENERAL statement), they are also very often more shy than the men, which makes getting to know them harder. They also don't like to be on camera very often. They usually don't wander around as much or are not out as late as guys, so yeah, for those reasons, you don't see them as much on my channel. Also, my videos are vlogs, so me filming solo and showing things around Egypt. If you have noticed, not many (or maybe any) are about the lives of other people, at least not for long. That's harder to do, as it requires that person to accept me filming them in their personal space and private life.
@@Gventures Thank you so much for taking the time to give such an extensive answer. I've got 5 brothers, so I tend to be very comfortable around men. And when I lived in Cameroon, my friends were men, because they were the other teachers at my school. I may have the chance to work at a university in Egypt, and if that happens, I'll have the chance to find out more!
@@cecilearquette1637 Exactly. I have 3 brothers, most of the friends I first made in Egypt were guys working at the hostels, it just worked out that way. Sounds like a fun opportunity and a great way to experience Egypt, I hope you are able to make that happen! 😎
Hey G!! I came across your videos a couple of days ago, I love your videos & your affectionate & contagious laughter! You’re so cute! 😂🤍 I have been learning Arabic for awhile now (Egyptian dialect) & hope to also move to Egypt also for a little while! Where I live, I met a lot of Coptic Egyptians starting back in 2018, I LOVE them soooo much! Can’t wait to visit & eventually settle into Egypt! -Aja❤
Thanks deijahheyward6573! That's so great, Egypt is such an incredible country, I am sure you're going to have an unforgettable experience here! Since you mentioned learning Arabic and Coptic friends, I am going to link a few videos here. I made a video explaining to foreigners who plan to visit some basic phrases in Egyptian Arabic. I'm sure you already know these basic words I put in this video, but just in case you didn't: ruclips.net/video/fDDKHjDmfg0/видео.html

Welcome to Egypt,👌🇪🇬
YOU LOOK AMAZING💇♀️ WITH SHORT HAIR..I LOVE IT💕✂️💈
Alex is the lovely barber who befriended Kino Ives the intrepid Frenchman - and who cooked a wonderful banquet at their hostel 😁
Yes, I saw he made a video with Kino recently, Alex is becoming popular 😄I also met Alex at the hostel just as Kino did, but I met Alex in October 2021, so we have been friends for a good while now. He is fun, and a really good guy 🥰
@@Gventures he seems so lovely!
❤️ You got your hair cut by the same barber who cut RUclipsr “kino Aves” hair. Weird. What a small world. I believe kino is still in Egypt.
Haaaaa! Yes I know, I randomly saw that on RUclips as well! I was like, wtf?! Actually so my friend Alex (the barber) works at a hostel, so although it is really crazy and random, I am not surprised Kino found his way to Alex's barbershop, because it turns out he was staying at the hostel where Alex works (and where I stayed for 2 months before finding my apartment). So I'm really good friends with Alex, but it was so wild to see him in a video cutting Kino's hair, I didn't know he did that but I follow Kino and just randomly saw it on RUclips the other day (actually I saw it the same day I was going to get my hair cut at Alex's shop!). It is such a big world, but also so small 😅I think Kino has left now, he uploads pretty late I think (so he has a backlog of videos he uploads while he is traveling so he isn't rushed). I would have loved to have met him!
Awesome!!! I believe Alex will gain popularity with tourists in Egypt. He seems like a genuinely nice respectable man. 😇👍🏽
@@FemaleDallasTexas Absolutely! He's a really sweet guy and a good friend. He's working on getting his own shop and I'm definitely sending people I know his way when he opens it! He's also going to come to my apartment sometime and show me how to make some Egyptian food, so you'll see him again! 😁🥰
Hey, we need haircuts. Mark def and I need a trim, so when we get there. 😁 OMG it’s Saturday and Wednesday is around the corner.
Oh about the Hawawchi I just started making it, my mom’s recipe is delicious. I’ll make it when I get there.
Bye for now Habibtee ❤
Watching her RUclips the past few days, I grew accustomed to your laughs. So video is so real. I am going to Egypt in few weeks as a solo female traveler. How can I meet you over a cup of coffee lunch?
Welcome to Egypt! Feel free to message me on IG: mygventures. I'm not sure I'll have the time to meet as I am planning a trip soon, or I might just be busy with work in Cairo, but message me and maybe we can work something out. Thanks for watching and welcome to the channel! 🥰
That was amazing hair cut 😲 thanks Alex 👏
Yes he is very skilled at his craft! I will let him know you said so 😁
@@Gventures Yeah please 😁 hope he will see my comment 🥳
@@user-mg4mw1uq1p انت اسمك فشيخ قوي 😂😂😂
Perfect here still ❤I like it 👌🏻 👍🏻
Catching up with your old videos. Cool that your dad is from Argentina. I loved my trip to Buenos Aires and Iguasu Falls many years ago. Have you visited Argentina yet? Add it to your bucket list!
I have to visit my relatives 😊I love the food
He’s an artist.
Welcome to Egypt
You are a beautiful woman
Welcome to Egypt!! Thank you for sharing that!
What do you hope for Egypt to be like in the future!! And for Coptics ;;
By the way, you are so funny and friendly!
Thanks, I've been living here for over a year and love it! What do you mean, what do I hope Egypt to be like in the future? And for Coptics? I'm not sure I understand your question. I hope for Egypt to continue progressing and be a successful and prosperous country, and for Copts to continue practicing their religion as they have been for a long time now, free from discrimination. They faced problems in the past but that was many, many centuries ago. Now Christians and Muslims live side by side here, without issues
1-Jizya (which you refer to as religious taxation) is paid by wealthy Christians, for defense and production against enemies, its not paid by old or poor or Children. Muslims pays Zakah also each year and have to join the army and sometimes lose their life defending the land. Since now Christians drafted in the army they do not pay it.
2- when Muslims conquered Egypt, Muslims guaranteed freedom of belief and allowed the Copts to practice their religion freely. For instance, Binyaameen (Benjamin), the Patriarch of the Coptic Church, had fled from the Romans due to their hatred of his beliefs. He fled for his life, fearing the Roman’s oppression and persecution against him and all other Christians. When ‘Amr ibn Al-‘Aas, , heard of this, he sent Binyaameen a letter, inviting him to come back under the protection of the Muslims. They gave him the freedom to supervise the Egyptian churches ( this has been told also by Pope Shenouda)
3-Since you live in Egypt now its a good opportunity to learn more about Islam, not every thing you hear or read is true, hear from Muslims directly since you there.
I have learned about Islam through my friends, I have many Muslim friends here in Egypt, as well as Coptic Christian friends. Not sure why you commented all this information, in the video I was simply stating how the practice of the Copts tattooing themselves originated, a very long time ago. Obviously things have changed. My Muslim and Christian friends are both friends with each other, I did not say anyone hated anyone else.
this is one thing i don't have to worry about being balled. I like the way you say YALLA.
Your hair looks amazing
Thanks Guido! Props to my friend the amazing barber 😄😁😍
Welcome to Egypt
She seems nice
Hello Gisselle, I have a lot to say on this video! as usual funny and entertaining and you laughed a lot in this video, very cool to see you happy with the very special haircut. What really made me comment today is the comments about Egyptian Coptic and Muslim history. We don't like distinguishing between Egyptians based on religion and we have no such a place is exclusive for Coptics or Muslims. This is very sensitive topic to raise with not enough knowledge and unfortunately you shared controversial and debatable information, and I have a lot to say here about your barber friend who is a very smart man and a very determined! There is no such neighborhood exclusively for Coptic Christians or for Muslims and we don't talk majority and minority! You can hear the Azan Muslim call for prayer from his shop I wonder why he told you this is a majority Coptic neighborhood and even if this is true there and I doubt that, we don't talk like this!! very strange claim and every Egyptian will understand what I am saying here. In my humble opinion if you need to know about the history or politics you have to make a serious discussion with well-educated Egyptians. FYI, a lot of Egyptian men dream about having US residency "I am sure you have noticed that many times" and the best way to make him close to a chance is to get an American girl friend and it is even much easier for those who can use the minority wild card!!! Bardon me for talking serious. Another important thing to mention, Egyptian Muslims and many Coptics too don't use the term Islamic conquering and the sentence forcing Christians to enter Islam 😮😮Please be careful while talking about what you may don't understand. It is a very different culture and very different beliefs than the west. It is a very long story too.
💯 💯
I love the haircut ❤
Your hair looks great and the way you do your eyes! I bet you get a lot of comments in Cairo.
Haha, thanks man. This bright hair always gets a few looks anywhere in the world, but definitely more so here. But I love it. Have had the same color for 13 years now😅
Keep going ❤️❤️✌️
Beautiful haircut
I love your videos. You remind me of our VP Harris. Toooooooooo much gigling
I laugh a lot because I'm a happy person, you're just going to have to deal with it 😂
You look stunning 🤩
Saw your comment on yves's channel has to see barber experience ❤
Oh haha, oh no way, that's awesome! I love his channel, what a crazy guy, I respect it. And Alex is a very good barber! We are good friends now. I made a video with him where we went to get foul for breakfast ruclips.net/video/1gUjTTMuP7c/видео.html
@@Gventures very nice i will watch it too
You look amazing ❤
Pretty! Very nice cut.
I'll have to let Alex know. Thanks so much!
Can you please tell us his address??
His address?? The address of the barber shop, you mean? He isn't there often, it is his part time job
I love this video. Im a hairstylist. Can you show a video of wheree the women get there haircut for me please.❤
I'm sorry but I never go to salons! They are more expensive, and a barber does a better job for my hair 😅
❤❤
Your information about islamic entrance to Egypt is completely wrong..islam never oblige any one to be a muslem but on the contrary arabic moslems save coptic chrischians from Rromans..you can read history to know the truth
🙄What are you talking about I never talked about entrance to Egypt at all. If you are referring to me mentioning why Christians got tattoos and the persecution that surrounded that, well it did happen. I have read about it, there is documented history. Why are you acting like you are offended I am not insulting you it is something that happened over a thousand years ago and it is documented. You need to let people speak more and not be offended all the time.
@@Gventures You were right, arab invaders forced christians to convert or pay the Jizya (tax) thats why the majority of Egyptians nowadays are muslims because few people were able to pay the Jizya, but they were originally Coptics christians
Another note that Misr the current Egypt name is not the original name, the original name is Kemet and arab invaders changed it later
@@Assassinclips I don't know what the ancient Egyptians called Egypt, are you saying it was Kemet? I know what they call Egypt in Arabic now, but I don't know how long they have called it that, or what it was called before
@@Gventures Yes that was the name of the land for ancient Egyptians, means black land refer to black soils of the nile river, not because the ancient people were black like the group of afrocentric people say. Egypt the english name came from egyptos the greek name of egypt during the macedonian invasion, but misr or masr is the arabic name that the arab invaded called after someone called Mizraim son of Ham the son of Noah!
Hope that informations helps lol
@@Gventures Btw i think you should do a vlog with @BrianWilesArabic
since he is currently in egypt and you as well and you both came from NYC, it will be fun
Thanks again 😂.
You're hair looks awesome. He does excellent work. And I learned a little about Christianity there. Did you go out afterwards to show off the haircut? 😉
Haha, thanks man, Alex did a great job! And I did go out with Alex after 😁
@@Gventures Cool. You rock. Keep the videos coming. 😉❤️
Hallo Giselle. Liebe Grüße aus Nürnberg
Hi Beate! Glad to see you're still around 🥰
@@Gventures Hello Giselle. I think your videos are great. I will be flying to Hurghada this month. It's cold here in Germany now. I like your hairstyle, you are a pretty woman. are you alone in egypt I have to use google translator because unfortunately I don't speak English. I hope it's reasonably translated.
@@beatebrunner6855 Haha yes Google translator worked perfectly for what you were saying. I also use google translator when you write things in German to me 😅Yes I am sure Germany is cold now, not in Egypt! 😆 I came to Egypt alone last year for travel and just never ended up leaving. Now I have many Egyptian friends and an Egyptian boyfriend so I wouldn't say I am exactly alone anymore, though I do not have family or American friends here. I am loving Egypt though, it is a lot of fun 😁
@@Gventures danke für deine schönen Worte. Ich bewundere Dich. Wie alt bist du?
@@beatebrunner6855 You first! 😆
You
Really suits you 😊 good haircut !!!!
Did you give nice tip haha
He was paid well, don't worry
Does Alex have a girlfriend? If not tell him to holla at me 😜😂😂😂
🤣I'll let him know you said that 😄
@@Gventures please do ☺️😋 I watched a video of him cooking a few nights ago and I'll be hopefully coming to Egypt soon, so tell him if he ever fancies cooking for me I'm always hungry 😉😂😂😂 🤷♀️❤️
@@chamillarobshaw6168 🤣Oh was that on Kino's channel? I saw Kino made quite a few videos with Alex in them too 😆Yeah Alex cooks at the hostel quite often so I'm sure you'll have an opportunity to try his food if you stay there. I plan to have him show me how to cook some Egyptian food (his pane chicken is my favorite) and make a video about that too sometime. I'll pass the word along, he'll be pleased to hear it 😄😁😉
@@chamillarobshaw6168 Hi, it's Alex! you are welcome at anytime 😊 by the way i break up with my girlfriend since i saw your comment, so tell me when will come to Egypt 😂😂🤣
@@emadalexander4252 oh bless you 🤣🤣🤣 hope it wasn't a messy break up! 🤔😉 And hopefully some time in the new year, and have a feeling that I'm going to need a body guard upon entering your country 😆 so if you know of anyone offering their services? 😅 and thank you for your kind hospitality it's much obliged ❤️😊
🌹🌺🌹🌺👊👌🏾👊
You would of had 10k views if you had been cut bald. Missed chance 😔
😂😂Guess there's always next time 😂😂If I don't get 10k views it's your head
No one was forced to convert to islam no one history book mentioned that even those written by copts
It's hard to force anyone to do anything. But persecution obviously existed, and when your physical safety, or that of your children, is under threat, people will do many things. I suggest you read more about the history, I have, extensively, and know what I am talking about.
@@Gventures thinking that you already know everything is not good dear. When muslims ruled Egypt Intermarriage was common between muslim arab men and Christian coptic women and of course their of spring were Muslims. Not all Egyptians were Christians some reserved their traditional old beliefs. Way before islam arab lived in Egypt especially the eastern desert for trading and after islam alot of arab migrated to egypt that made Muslims more than Christians.
BTW tattoos are forbidden in islam
@@esra1463 Me disagreeing with you does not mean I think I know everything, I am sure you have the intelligence to be able to understand that concept. But I know for a fact there was persecution, and as I already said, that leads people to do many things they might not otherwise. This goes for many people around the world, not specifically Christians in Egypt. I know for a fact there are Egyptians that disagree with your opinion, because I have had this discussion with them before. And again, I have read a lot about the history here as well. We don't have to agree, and I think it's silly to argue with someone I have never met in person. I am not hating on Muslims nor trying to stir up controversy by stating the things I have, I hope you're aware of that. Just talking about history and humans.
@@Gventures no need for persecution for Christians to convert to islam only knowing there was a new religion to worship one god not 3 in 1 and believing jesus is a humn prophet not god killed by other humans was enough for then to believe in islam they just used their brains and it made more sense to them. And if it's silly ti argue with someone you didn't meet in person why did you reply to me?
@@esra1463 I replied to you to let you know I don't care to argue, and because I usually reply to people leaving comments on my channel. But I am not going to go back and forth with you trying to convince you of anything, you have your belief and think it's the only right one, and I am not going to try and change your mind, it's clear you are settled in your ways, and that's your freedom of choice as well. It's kind of wild that you don't believe persecution existed though, when there's plenty of history to prove you wrong, but again, I don't care to argue. If I wanted to block you from commenting I could, but I believe in the freedom of speech. And also you can keep commenting more if you want, it helps my video when you do anyway 😅Peace ✌
Smoking is bad, kids!
As she goes for a smoke
🤣🤷♀️
That's not true at all, in Islam there is no such thing of forcing people to revert, bring me 1 evidence, you have no clue what you saying, in terms of religious taxes, and unlike any tax you pay in any part of this world, this is the minimum tax you would ever pay it's like 2.5% of you yearly income how much would that be? also along with that comes a lot of benefits, when you pay you don't join army, yet army would still defend you. so you pay this and you free to practice you religion and live your life, and under true Islamic laws there is no such taxes the only thing you pay is this we call ( جزية ) or Tribute and that's the only thing you need to pay to live under true Islamic country there is no such thing paying up to 50% of you total income like US or UK, check out waves of people in Europe, US and UK reverting to Islam because if you are someone truly searching for the truth and purpose of life, you would find all your answers in Islam, check out stories of a lot of people reverted recently and the reason they made this decision
Bro I have been living here for 3 years and made a video about Coptic Christians and a brief history, I've done a lot of research and spoken to both Christians and Muslims here, sorry but we are just going to have to agree to disagree. I am not going to argue with you about this on the internet, and here you are preaching about how I would find all the answers and purpose in life in Islam. Let someone make their own decisions. I already have, and you are not going to convince me. It's incredible how much pushback there is when I mention a few negative things about the darker parts of history. Do you think it was all just rainbows and perfection? Every religion and every history has had it's good and bad parts. I am not saying living under Islamic rule as a non-Muslim was the worst thing that could happen, obviously there were much worse rulers to live under, just take a look at the Romans or later the crusades. I know people were able to live under relative peace under Muslim rule, but there was definitely some inequality as well as persecution. I know Muslims pay jizira but you should know it was certainly less than what non-Muslims were paying, you can look it up, it's very easy information to find, and I have spoken to Muslims who agree it was more. Anyway, like I said, I think we're just going to have to agree to disagree.
@@Gventures It's incredible understanding that i am pushing anything against anyone, you mention a historical information which is incorrect, you didn't mention your resource, so please if you are going to grab a a piece of historical information you it's better to attach your resource to prove it otherwise it's a lie, to think it was dreamland back then is insane, however we need to differentiate between what the religion teaches and how people stick to those teachings and apply it, i watch your videos and i am fan, i am not preaching, i am correcting false information, i love how your vlogs show egypt in a fair way, i didn't like mentioning an incorrect info that has never happened, and if we say it has happened it does not mean that this is what Islam teaches, i am sorry if you got this in a wrong way or aggressively, it's just on chat it really depends how you feel when you read the comment
@@BlackWhite-Da7lom I am well aware Islam exists and is an option if i want it. Seems a bit pushy to me to act as if I have never heard of it and say things like "if you are someone truly searching for the truth and purpose of life, you would find all your answers in Islam, check out stories of a lot of people reverted recently and the reason they made this decision." That is YOUR belief, not mine. Anyways, no I don't need to reference a thousand articles to back up what i am saying, because it wouldn't matter if I did anyways, and you and many other people have commented that it is not true, and many other people have commented that it is true, and I am not here to prove to anyone anything. They can look that up themselves, I did my research, but I didn't save on some file every single site, article, and historical papers where I got my information, nor am I going to spend hours looking it up again and sending it to you. Sorry you disagree with me, but as I have said, we are just going to have to agree to disagree.

I'm glad I came across this video to unsubscribe from your channel early. Your on video comments are biased and inaccurate.
Lol, you felt the need to comment this, like I care what you think, whether you agree with me or not, or whether you subscribe or not? Good riddance, cya!
@@Gventures Get a grip Gventure. My commet for your followers to encourage them to do the same and to call you out publicly.
@@knn007-ij3hu Well, looks like you're the only one who thinks that, as I see no likes on your comment 🤷♀And just because you dislike or disagree with what I say in the video doesn't mean everyone else has to. Seems to me like you just don't like people's opinions that differ from yours. And I mind as well add freedom of speech to the list of things you seem to dislike, as you are trying to get others to unsubscribe or "publicly call me out....?" Whatever that means. Freedom of speech is about being able to say what you want, whether others like it or agree with it or not. Once again, cya! Unsubscribe and take a hike 🤣Or keep commenting, whatever, it helps my channel grow when you do anyway.
my mother had the cross tattoo on her wrist too. my father-also a christian- did not and neither do I. i wonder why? the Muslim religious tax is called the Giziea. the options offered at the time to Christians was convert, leave the country, pay the tax or die. Muslim are very nice people. as they continue to invade the west, they will do the same here one day. glad i am old.
@@Egyptian.n is that why the Christian’s are now a minority in their own land. Is that why a formally Christian nation is now called the Arab Republic?
I think you're wrong about this because christians in Egypt now make this cross tattoo to show they're christians.they are not forced to do it they didn't have to convert or die . I don't know where from you get this information
What load of bullshit. You are full of hate to Muslims.
Was he supposed to wash your hair? Or customers must do it on their own? 😮. I am so confused. Alex did an excellent job on your hair. Very nice hair cut 👍
Yes, Alex is now a friend. I think guys usually have their hair washed but because I was a girl in a barber shop (unusual) and because he is my friend, I washed my own hair.
