There are plenty of reasons to choose a barbershop over a hair salon. For starters, people working in barbershops usually have more experience when it comes to doing a face shave. It’s also cheaper to get your hair cut in a barbershop than a salon, although, that’s probably not going to be the case if your barbershop of choice has four wheels and a Mercedes-Benz badge on the front.
Built by HQ Custom Design, this bespoke mobile barbershop conversion exists inside of a Mercedes-Benz Sprinter van. As you can see, it’s got everything from a full-size barber chair, plumbing, tools, plus plenty of space for various hair products.
Slide open the motorized door and you’ll find custom white upholstery with a soundproof front partition wall, wood-like flooring, custom-made wood laminated countertops, a large sink with running hot/cold water, and of course that spectacular chair that also reclines and swivels. Just about everything you might find when visiting a regular retail shop, possibly minus the everyday banter.
Other interior highlights include the 32-inch TV, Wi-Fi connectivity, LED ambient lighting, window shades and onboard electrical components such as lithium batteries, custom battery tray, 3,000W power inverter and a diesel heater.
This conversion can be done for either a cargo version of the Sprinter or the passenger version – as both are able to provide hairstylists and barbers with plenty of space when working on their clients.
“We have worked with a wide array of professional barbers, hairstylists, and nail technicians to customize these types of mobile work units,” said the New Jersey-based tuner, which also specializes in Ford Transits, Cadillac Escalades and Lincoln Navigators.
The only question we have is what type of individual would actually require a mobile barbershop? Perhaps somebody very wealthy who is literally always on the move, like a successful businessman? If you live your life constantly saying to yourself that “time is money”, then sure, we can imagine it might be somewhat inconvenient to sit stationary for 30 minutes to an hour in a regular brick and mortar barbershop.

What the rising popularity of Yemeni coffee shops says about third places
[url=https://kr13at.cc]кракен онион[/url]
The most popular spot on a late Friday night in a pocket of Manhattan’s West Village isn’t a trendy bar or a Michelin-starred restaurant but a Yemeni coffee house chain strictly serving coffee, tea and pastries.
A step into Qahwah House on Carmine Street offers a rich whiff of cardamom, Arabic music and crowds of people both at tables and in line to order. The energy spills over into the sidewalk, where some begin performing a Levantine folk dance known as dabke. It’s a snapshot of various Eastern cultures; Arabic, Farsi and Urdu fill the air, and some customers don traditional attire.

Qahwah House is just one of a string of Yemeni coffee chains that originated in the Arab-populated Detroit area and are rapidly springing up across the country, often where there are significant Middle Eastern and Muslim populations. Nineteen Qahwah House locations are open across seven states, with more under construction and expected to open this year. Another chain, Haraz, opened this month in the pricey SoHo neighborhood in Manhattan, with at least six more in the region planned in the next two years. Times Square will be home to two other chains, MOKAFE and Qamaria Yemeni Coffee Co.
The rapid expansion of these shops underscores the demand for late-night social spots for not only young Muslims and Middle Easterners, but also younger people who are looking for a non-digital third space where they can hang out without alcohol or having to yell over loud music.
They don’t have many other options. Malls, a traditional third place for young people, are growing more and more unpopular. Chains like Starbucks have become more like take-out counters. Alcohol-free lifestyles are growing even for those outside of the Muslim faith, which many practicing the religion already take part in.
So for many young people in urban areas, especially those from immigrant communities looking for a way to connect to their cultures, it’s a great option.
