    Default Dutch Barbershop Video

    Apparently Wade & Butcher sounds the same in Dutch and English!

    This is a fun video with some nice barbershop scenery. I would get a shave there.

    This is brilliant! Here's a barber that is truly preserving the art. Shaving clients with "real" straight razors while respecting sanitation laws.

    Here's a video when he was an "apprentice" barber, it looks like he is flying with his own wings now.

    Beautiful website he has too:

    The older gentleman, Pasquale, cracks me up.

    It looks like he knows his way around a razor also.

    Some cool vids, a couple of characters by the looks. Great idea for customers to have their own personal set up there, at least, that is how it seems. Funny watching the old barber shaking his clients hand, that is what my barber does when he is finished my hair cut. Must be quite an experience visiting somewhere like that.

    Great video.
    And was that an "alum block holder/clamp" that he showed us?
    It would be my "thing I learned today" - I've never seen one.

    Thank you for sharing.

    Yeah, I think that was a clamp with an alum block. If I am remembering correctly I saw a video with a Parisian barber using a similar device.

    Default This is my barber!

    The barber in this video, Jan Heideman, actually is my barber! I live next door to his shop, located in the Dutch Railway Museum, Utrecht, the Netherlands. Mr. Heideman also has a beautiful shop in Haarlem, where I went last october for a full treatment, taking almost an hour. It was great and mr. Heideman is an excellent barber. If you happen to visit the Netherlands: do go there and have a great shave!

    Please give Mr. Heideman my regards. I really enjoy the videos and the museum shop looks fantastic!
