Step back in time

I had heard along the grape vine of a new barber in Margate called  '5 o'clock Shadow'. I had visited their facebook page and the photos looked awesome. I had to visit and I had to bring someone with barber experience.  My husband was my intel on this one.  The place has a older theme and is run by Simon who is young, interesting and, as my husband told me, an excellent conversationalist.

He cuts swiftly and confidently, it sounded like Edward Scissor hands was in the shop. He used the razor to shave the back of my husband neck, this is a big plus. He sell razors too. I have been watching Razor Underbelly on my iPad and really wanted to buy one for protection and carry it in my suspender belt, but he didn't sell suspender belts too so I put that plan on hold.

My husband liked the barber and he even said he is switching from his usual Racecourse Road barber.  Score one for Redcliffe. More importantly, I liked his hair cut. My uncle was so impressed that he stopped by yesterday for a makeover by Simon.
