That's awesome. That's nice.
Traveling the world with my wife hasn't
slowed my love for doing guy stuff. And
the one place that I always feel
connected to my manhood is in a barber chair.
Because I'm getting haircuts, beard
trims, and neck shaves in unique places,
I wanted to share the experiences with
others that appreciate the craft of
barbers around the world.
Don't worry, I'll show you other cool
cultural stuff along the way. These are
my World Barber Shop Adventures.

I'm in Doha, Qatar. I'm gonna do a neck shave.
We're in a very authentic Turkish-focused
salon here in a neighborhood of Doha.
You'll get a feel. There's salons everywhere.
I mean they are like grouped in a certain area,
but they're everywhere
on the streets here in Doha. That's awesome.
I pronounce it salon but it can also be
pronounced as it is spelled saloon.
It's interchangeable, and it varies in
different areas of Asia and
the Middle East.

Tea is an important part of the Turkish
culture and a great way to relax before
getting into the barber chair. It was a
nice touch by the team.
[Upbeat Music]
Like I said earlier they're both many
Turkish and Indian barbers in this
neighborhood of Doha. I've had the chance
to go to several authentic Indian
barbers during my journey and there are
both similarities and differences with
Turkish parlors. Both are great with the
blade and clippers. You will see Hayati is
a highly experienced and takes great
pride in the craft.

I found in many parts of the world that
they use sanitation processes like fire 
to make sure the blades are clean.
[Dance Music]
Hayati uses the comb and blade to get
the beard tight. love this method. Check
out the level of focus in his eyes
[Dance Music]
Don't sleep on a beard brush with stiff
bristles. Game Changer.
[Dance Music]
Traveling for 24 hours straight, on two
flights with long layovers beat the
hell out of my neck. That's why you see
the bumps on my skin. You can see how
nasty it it. Hayati was concerned and
did a great job making sure I was
comfortable. Within 24 hours my neck was
back to normal.

I love the way he puts the shaved hairs
into the palm of his hand. So many ways
to do that and he chooses the rawest.
[Upbeat Music]
I haven't brought up the mask yet.
This is not that uncommon in different parts
of the world. I realize in the US it would
be rare to see that but I've seen the
mask worn in many Asian countries.
Here is a quick backdrop. Qatar is hosting the
2022 World Cup and based on our small
amount of time here, the country appears
ready and is excited to be on the world's
biggest stage.

Taking care of those nasty nose hairs is
a great touch. And the eyebrows often go
ignored by the barber, but since mine get
out of control I think it's important.
[Upbeat Music]
[Upbeat Music]
This was definitely quite a unique experience.
I actually watch the guy in
the chair before me get the treatment so
I wasn't that shocked when it came to my
turn. That said, it was still wild. I could
feel the heat on my ears. The purpose of
the flame is to burn off the small hairs
that corrupts your ears. It was memorable
regardless.
[Inaudible]
It's awesome. That's nice.

Pay attention how intense he gets with
the face cleaner. This is a man that
takes great pride in his service. 
[Upbeat Music]
I promise you hot towels make
the world better.
[Upbeat Music]
After he cleaned most of it off, we went
over to the sink that was in the back
corner and he properly washed my face and
hair.
[Upbeat Music]
If notice the clock in the back it's 8:15
at night. A pro is a pro no matter what
time of the day it is. Hayati had been
working all day to this point and still
made sure that I received 
an exceptional experience.

A massage to wrap up the services is the
perfect ending. Check out the pride in
his face knowing him as another
satisfied customer. 
Doha has a population of about 1.3 million 
and the land that we drove in on from the airport
was man-made built above the sea. 
Can you imagine? It tripped me out 
to think about it.
Falconry has an important place in
Qatari society. This craftsman is making
leather hoods that the falcons wear over
their eyes to calm their nerves.
This is my absolute favorite type of food with
vegetables, hummus, baba ghanoush, and a
side of chili paste.
[Upbeat Music]
With only a small glimpse of what Doha, Qatar
had to offer, I was extremely impressed
with its top-notch hospitality,
spectacular architecture, and amazing
culinary scene. I look forward to a
longer stay next time.
