Public Haircut
By-sitter at the open-air barbershop.
One of the first things I learned in Singapore, is that locals generally despise having their pictures taken by strangers. This was a break from back home, where people jostle their way into the photos.
Grumpy man getting a public haircut, Chinatown.
But they do also, in less "busy" alleys, engage in public hair cutting.
