Hairdresser salon. London 1950

A candid scene captures the activity within a London barbershop, 1950. Three barbers in white work smocks attend to customers at stations fitted with arched mirrors. In the foreground, a barber with glasses and a cigarette dangling from his lips holds a comb and scissors to a client’s hair. The shop is illuminated by fluorescent tube lights, and the perspective appears to be from behind a pillar or through a doorway, which frames the everyday scene.
