Getting Your Haircut In Turkey

You saw the BEFORE photo. Now this is the AFTER.

After more than four months without a haircut, I went and got my head shaved for 25 Turkish Lira (plus 5 more as a tip). The man who cut my hair did not speak a word of English and the trimmers he used to cut my hair were broken, so he had to hold the plastic adapter part in place while he was working. After cutting my hair the man had me lean forward into a sink so he could wash my hair. Then he splashed a massive amount of perfume on both my hands and my face before giving me his business card on my way out the door.
