When you get a hair cut there, they shave your neck with a straight razor like an old time barber used to do. They probably do straight razor shaves there too.

I'll email my brother, the TV frog, and ask him for the barber to ask for and her phone number. Will get back with the info.

Quoting Wikipedia:

"Some areas require barbers who provide straight-razor shaving to use a version that employs a disposable blade system. Still other jurisdictions ban the use of all straight razors and barbers use modern disposable blade razors instead. In places such as Australia, New Zealand, Ontario, Pennsylvania, Denver, Boston, Texas and San Diego, however, the use of straight razors is legal."

"Feather Safety Razor Co. Ltd. of Osaka, Japan makes a razor with the same form as a traditional straight, but featuring a disposable blade that can be installed through an injector-type system."

When my Mother-in-law was alive, I used a flowbee to do her hair. She had a hard time breathing and the flowbee kept the hair dust away from her.

I use a flowbee to do the wife's hair now.
