the name reminds me of when my dad took me to Louie the barber to get my haircut. Even if we were the only two people in his shop, he would still ask, OK, who’s next even though my dad didn't need his hair cut. :)
We have a barber near us who cuts your hair whilst you wait. You don't have to come back later to collect your haircut.
He is not very good at shaving though. The other day whilst he was shaving me I looked down and saw an ear on the ground. I said, "Look here. There's an ear down here. Who's ear is it down here?"
He replied, "Touch it. If it is warm, it's yours!"
Years ago, whilst having my hair cut, I told my barber I'd seen The Dubliners in concert and spoke with them afterwards. He loved The Dubliners and asked me what they said when I met them.
I replied, "They said tell us who cut your hair and we'll get your money back!"
I think he practiced that way (calling who’s next) dealing with customer. For me, barber comes home for haircut and he’s someone hair cutting me from childhood.
Nice snippet from the past Bill.

...good name!
ReplyDeleteHello, a cute sign for the barber! Enjoy your day!
ReplyDeleteThanks for the laugh!
ReplyDeleteLove it 💈
ReplyDeleteGreat name and great memory!
ReplyDeleteMy husband likes to make an appointment rather than wait for "who's next!"
ReplyDeleteNeat name for a barbershop. I haven't had to go into one in years.
ReplyDeleteHa Bill, dit zijn dan toch mooie herinneringen.
ReplyDeleteGroet Kees.
Hi Bill.
ReplyDeleteLovely those good memories.

ReplyDeleteNow that is a great name for the barber shop and a great story to go with it.

nice! a few barbers here too except it's more for the guys than the girls.
ReplyDeleteGood barbers are hard to find.
ReplyDeleteGreat sign/name!
ReplyDeletePerfect! :)
ReplyDeleteMany years ago (decades and decades ago!) people would not make appointments mainly in small towns or villages. First come, first served!
ReplyDeleteWho's next?
Well, that says a lot!
ReplyDeleteI think he practiced that way (calling who’s next) dealing with customer. For me, barber comes home for haircut and he’s someone hair cutting me from childhood.
ReplyDeleteThis is good because this helps us to know a shop or place more easily .
ReplyDeleteGreat name----always conjuring up memories

ReplyDeleteGreat shot.
ReplyDeleteFunny! Your barber didn’t want to lose his routine.
