How about the lost art of actual barbers?
I grew so tired of bouncing from shop to shop all over the area that I now look like Jesus The Hipster Occupy Dude.
I remember when it was a shop for men, by men. They knew how to taper the back and handle a straight razor. They'd actually trim the neck and sideburns, take pride in their art/craft, and the social atmosphere was enjoyable too. From the glass bottle Coke machines, to the newspapers, car & hunting magazines, political talk, sports on tv, ashtrays between every other chair; it's a piece of American history all but lost.
