barber shops
Men's grooming parlors
Barber shops are establishments where barbers cut hair, typically specializing in men's haircuts and shaves.
The barber shop has traditionally served as a social gathering place in many communities, where men discuss news, sports, and local affairs while waiting their turn in the chair.
A barber shop quartet is a style of four-part a cappella singing associated with these spaces.
