I did get my hair cut today, at Oxygen Barbers. 100% Arab awesomeness. Did my mohawk right, got the hot towel treatment, and they even did the sides in 0.5 rather than a 1 I usually get.
Will go back

@sortius@infosec.exchange I’ll be in Melbourne next week and will be hitting up the Arab barber at Watergardens for a full head shave.

Yes, the best barbers in the world are still Arab barbers. The service is next level, to the point that I don't think women get how good it is.
They start by offering a drink - tea, coffee, soft drink, beer - and then spend their time working. Little chat, just work. Toward the end the smells come in. Apple, strawberry, musks, it's a haze of greatness.
Then they do the hot towels, the massage, and "do you need a shave". If you accept, you will get the best shave you've ever had, all done with straight razors.
The end is a spritz of cologne at the counter
