Very painful stuff

Me
When I was 10 years then
around 1988

Oh boy

I still have my own.

Back then in ijora oloye/7up

Bekwarra:
Yes I did. The man normally comes on Thursdays where the children in the neighbourhood would have been gathered in their houses. We used to run away whenever we saw him coming because of the pepperish sensations after each haircut. No styles nothing, it's always skodo. We used to call the man Baba Ge Kia Kia. I still wonder how all of us didn't get serious infections then. But ringworm and others were rampant though.

Why there's no infection was they took their time in sterilizing the clipper and all they use is kerosene. Good old days.

Horrible time going to that Ghanaian barber at Oluti. Funny thing the barber had an afro with parting sef

Yes I remember it.
Used back then mostly in certain regions though, like the middle belt upwards to the north.

Since 2015 topic?

remember then me and my elder brother at baba barber shop. the baba will use at least over 7 different clippers before he will finish barbing me.

Very painful those days, but I always get baby punk style from the barber.

I usually get gift every Easter and Christmas for the man barber as a loyal customer.

Childhood memories!!!

2015..6 years later

there was a PERIOD when barber were LEGENDS. OLD MEN with the SKILLS SET to perfect wonders on heads.
That "pekepeke" as it was called then, should be placed in our museums for generations yet unborn!!!
