Maybole Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 My regular barber has be opening irregularly since the end of lackdown and today was closed. My Sister-in-law took me to Wat Lok Moli on Manee Nopparat road for a free haircut. It is a long term project to raise temple funds. It appears to be men only and the haircuts are performened by volunteers or possibly trainees under supervision of an experience barber. The young fellow who did mine was painstaking, stopping frequently so seek approval or advice from his mentor. The result is good althlough it took a long time. Wat Lok Moli is on the north side of the moat just East of Computer Plaza. The haircuts are free but a donation to temple funds is expected.

This is how people who are becoming barbers get experience. Usually they give free hair cuts at schools, orphanages, hospitals etc. but i guess at a temple like in your report is also an option.

Popular Post flare Posted September 8, 2020 Popular Post Share Posted September 8, 2020 I got a free haircut during the shutdown- my wife used the dog clippers on me.

ChipButty Posted September 8, 2020 Share Posted September 8, 2020 I could see what was going to happen at the start of lockdown so I bought hair clippers before they sold out and now my wife does it for me she also does a great job and shaves my neck.

faraday Posted September 9, 2020 Share Posted September 9, 2020 My wife has only just finished cutting my hair this morning, always looks great. ✔️ The only other female who has cut my hair, was my sister when I was 14. It was a disaster! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
