World Barber Shop Adventures

- Season 1

(2019)

Kolkata (Calcutta), India was an unforgettable trip tasting the excellent street food options including the chicken egg roll, puchkas, and bhapa doi. We rode on the crowded train from Howrah Station, stopped to visit the Ganges River, and drank coffee in the iconic College Street Coffee House. Getting a shave in an authentic street barbershop is a must, and we found the perfect location.

The barber shop visit takes us to Nara, Japan, not far from Osaka. This team of barbers gives me a top-level haircut, beard trim, neck shave, massage, and full treatment. We have a great time getting to know each other and all three barbers do a wonderful job. We also visit Han shin Ko shien Stadium, which is one of the most historic stadiums in all Japan.

If you ever want to find a destination where you can relax in the sun, meet very kind people, and get pampered like no other place on Earth, Bali, Indonesia is your place! And if you want to enjoy your time in the barber chair then Bali Barber is the place to get your man spa on! Great haircut, beard trim, neck shave, and nail work. Then, Matt went back to get his ears and nose waxed!

Hanoi is Vietnam's capital and has a population of 8 million. The Old Quarter is the heart of culture and a great place to explore the narrow streets to find unique shops and unforgettable food. The city was electric with excitement and pride as the national football team played for the Cup. The barber shops in Vietnam are authentic and fun so I decided to get a barber tattoo carved in my head.

Queenstown, New Zealand is a small town that is packed with endless natural beauty. Surrounded by mountains, lakes, and plenty of greenery, the city is an adventure seekers dream. Not only is there plenty to do when it comes to taking in nature, but the cafes, bars, and restaurants also do not disappoint. You will also find one of the top barber shops in New Zealand, Gents Barber Shop.

Gee's Clippers in Milwaukee, Wisconsin is the barber shop for the athletes in the area. An old bank converted into a sports theme shop focusing on Milwaukee Bucks basketball, it was like nothing I had experienced. Hardwood floors and basketball goals, a huge break room for the barbers, and an arcade room. With the Bucks and Brewers in town, it was a sports-filled trip.
