I’ve said enough about enchanting Essaouira. I wonder, have I really? For now, I just want to show you this picture of a backstreet barbershop in the medina. I’m not sure what appeals to me most, the old-fashioned charm of the interior – take a look at those curtains! – the groovy Arabic type on the glass, the peeling blue paint on the window rim, the intensity of the barber cutting hair inside, or the bouffant on the handsome bloke in the black and white picture. Do you think there’s ever been a man who has sat down in that chair and pointed to that picture and said “I’ll have one of those”?
