Japan Barbers Work Cutting Hair Shaving Men Chonmage Hairstyle Vtg. Photo 19thC.
This quality reprint of a vintage photo shows two Japanese barbers attend to customers outdoors, one shaving a man's face while the other styles a traditional topknot. This photograph from the Meiji period captures the chonmage hairstyle, a symbol of the samurai class. The government mandated this hairstyle be cut in 1871 as part of Japan's modernization, making such scenes historically significant representations of a changing culture.
