amazing haircut

I decided to get a haircut this morning. After breakfast I walked down to the hair dresser shop and asked for a regular haircut. This guy was just amazing. After he cut my hair with insane speed and accuracy, he asked if I wanted him to shave my beard as well. At this point I just said, "Sure.." In the next 10 mins, I got the cleanest shave I've ever had in my life! After that was over, I asked him to rub coconut oil in my hair. This was where the fun started. He then began rubbing coconut oil in my hair and asked if I wanted a head massage. I said once again, "Sure!!" For the next 30 minutes I got the best massage ever. He rubbed that coconut oil in my hair and massaged my neck and my back. The other 3 people in the shop were laughing because they saw how much I was enjoying it. I actually fell asleep for a good 10 mins because it was like I was floating on a cloud the whole time. In the end, about an hour after I entered the shop..he said, "50 rupees please." Wow, it's amazing how good of a job they do with haircuts in India.

Me, after my intense one hour experience..
