    I think I've seen some guys who have them, but prolly couldn't find the pics. IMO, it would be sweet, but only if you're shaving others or if someone else shaves you. Otherwise it's just another chair to me.

    Just got an early 1900-1910 Koken Barber chair. Theses are the before pictures. I have refinished the oak wood and had the metal powder-coated. The rest is off at the upholstery shop to be recovered. Ill post pics of the finished product as soon as I can

    I know a guy who uses one as his easy chair in his tv room. I think he spent around $1500 for his. It was 1940-50s fully restored chrome, vinyl and hydraulics.

    Those are Cosmo chairs for hairstylists. Real Barber chairs aren't made new anymore. Ebay or a local barber is your best bet for tracking one down.
