[Football] Barber Shop litrature

[Swimboy64]

When were Pornographic magazines fazed out from Barbers. Any still offer the pre haircut reading material.I remember picking one up in Alan’s at Fiveways when I was about 10 and he told me to put it down
Please share any experiences you have had.
I guess the appointment system No in operation at many barbers now means there isn’t as much demand as there used to be
Have a great Christmas everyone
X Peace and Joy to all

I had a similar experience in there except the haircut was rank. It closed in 95, according to the link in post #17. Julian who now owns the barbers there ('Jools') has some photos of the inside of the shop before he refurbished it. The haircuts and bants are infinitely better these days.
I also used to frequent an old school barbers in George St Kemptown that was random in its barbering skills but a dependable source of condoms.

Sorry yes 1995……must read own link or get my eyes tested

I remember going for a hair cut in Tokyo and they had a soft porn film showing whilst you waited.

I mistakenly thought this thread was about a new diatribe from PBOBE available in the club shop or books about Boyz2Men et al

And those alluring pub displays of packets of KP Nuts never failed to disappoint

I still get aroused when I see KP nuts. Embarrassing in Waitrose.

There was a barbers off Portland Road Hove, I think it was called Len’s

Bishop Brennan's second calling?

There's a wonderful photo of the window display in one of those Secret Brighton type books, in the Notable Eccentrics chapter. I'll try and dig it out.

I’ve just been looking through some of my books, found a colour close up photo in The Brighton & Hove photographic collection. It’s very similar to the other photos of the shop front though.
