Huts like this are a common place for barbers and often a community of five or six barbers huts can be seen, with all the barbers sharing banter and trade between them. by: barber Views[1908] On the road to Agra we stopped to interrupt this barber enjoying the afternoon breeze behind his curtain, he calmly and happily obliged to having his portrait taken. Barbers in India exude a sense of calm, a must when wielding a razor sharp cut throat blade. by: barber Views[1230]
