10 Categories Of People You Will Meet In A barbing Salon

1. The Ones Who Keep Looking At The Mirror
After having a nice haircut, they will start checking themselves out in the mirror for about 5-10mins before they finally pay for service rendered

2. The First Timer
These ones who will enter inside the barbing salon and ask " who is the best barber here ? Are you sure you can give me a nice haircut ?. The funniest thing is that, they want to barb gorimapa grin

3. High Self Esteem Customer
He will not utter a word at all because he feels talking to them will make him lose his value. After having his haircut, off he goes


4. The English Professors
These ones who start speaking like professors immediately they get into the barbing salon. The barber speaks Yoruba to them and they would reply with English. The funniest thing is that, they are more fluent in Yoruba or their native language than English

5.The Beggars
These ones who will beg those who are on the queue to allow them shape. E.g bros abeg na only shape I wan shape and na barb you wan barb. Abeg just allow me

6. The Handsome Dudes
These ones who will intimidate and make you think of suicide on why you are not as good looking as they are. They keep telling the barber that they ought to barb at NEXT but couldn't because they are under tight schedule

7. The Ones Who Will Drag Over Their Change
This people are not ashamed to drag over their change. E.g barber you no tell me b4 say na N300 you dey barbe ooooo, abeg I wan use that N200 take chop ni.. Even if miss world in inside the shop as at that time, dey will still drag grin

8. The Instructors
These ones will instruct the barber as he keeps cutting their hair.. E.g, no carry my shape inside oooo; you no carve that edge well oooo

9. History Tellers
These ones will talk about how a barber spoilt their hair a long time ago and that's the reason why they don't have a perfect shape ever since then. Many at times, they talk about how many ladies they have used and dumped and that money is the key to get a lady.. Who ask you ?

10. Impatient Customer
He is always in a hurry, making it look like every other customer there is jobless. He would wanna jump the queue, usually a regular customer. Sometimes he will enter into the shop and here goes the question, how many people dey ground ? When they are more than two, off he goes

Hehehehe....barbing saloon get plenty characters no be small.

Make I chip in some...

a) The Football warriors: These set of people are always in the saloon either to watch a football match or argue about football. Them don turn saloon to viewing centre. You sef wen wan barb no go see space sit down angry

b) The family: This is usually a man or woman who drives to the saloon with all her kids just to barb their hairs. They usually come during the weekend. Sometimes the man will instruct the barber to give his son the same hairstyle he was given.

c) The cry babies: These are usually little children. They always cry when their hairs are being cut and they cannot put their head in one place. Sometimes the barber gives them a lolipop to make their mouth busy while he's doing his work. I'm sure many of us did this when we were young.
Except na razor blade dem use barb you grin

d) The females: These are ladies who have decided to leave their Brazilian hair lifestyle grin and join we guys in cutting their hairs. They usually barb low cut or weird hairstyles like punk,,mohawk...e.t.c

e) The starers: These ones no get job. Their own na to dey look people wey dey enter and comot from saloon. They'll just keep staring at you,,whether your haircut make sense or not. undecided

1) The football freaks- they occupy all the sitting space, most of them just come watch match (no money to pay for viewing centre angry) you wey wan barb, you no see space to stand

2) Those with private clipper- usually old men with moustache and glasses , always wearing shorts... The barber usually cheats them when their clipper gets blunt.

3) Rejects- I've witnessed this situation many times... Where one abowki( probably mai ruwa, mai goro) looking unkempt will enter the classy saloon, but will be driven away cheesy , and the guy go hold correct cash come, but he reeks- body odour shii

Kids- they willl never put there head in one place, the barber normally sings rhymes to calm them, I didn't go through this shii when I was young sha
(Mum used shaving stick and razor blade on us cry )

The story teller- funny dudes, they come and gist us about there lives then in onitsha and warri, using style to make use of the clipper free of charge.
Some claim to be political thugs and stuff

Barbers shop na correct place

- The magazine readers: If you have a barbing salon that buys magazines and newspapers everyday, then you will always meet these people there. They only come to read complete sports and after reading they must start an argument with someone about a topic in d magazine or newspaper.

- The phone chargers : These ones are also not interested in barbing, but they will bring about 5 extension boxes and plug all kinds of phones, torches, n electrical gadgets.

- The commentators : Throughout your time at the barbing salon, you won't see them sit in the chair to get a hair cut but they must comment on every hair cut the barber gives. They will be d one to see dat the shaping is uneven on one side, or that d hair cut doesn't fit d shape of your head, or something else. No matter the hair cut, they must comment.

- The spiritualist : They turn the barbing Salon into a preaching centre. They look for someone who looks like a sinner, start an innocuous conversation with him and gradually direct d conversation into preaching. Funny enough they don't need a Bible, all the verses they need are already stored in their heads.
