后脑勺当画布 印度理发师兄弟剪出一片天


Two brothers, Rajwinder Singh Sidhu and Gurwinder Singh Sidhu, cut hair in northern India. They are offering more than just the usual haircut. They are making art.

Brothers are using their customers’ heads and hair to make their art. They cut hair into the shapes of famous people and places—from the face of singer Michael Jackson to the towers of the Taj Mahal(泰姬陵). The barbers use different kinds of scissors and trimmers(修剪器) to get the look just right.

Rajwinder is the younger of the two brothers. He said they got their start by offering free haircuts to anyone who would like to have a try. Now the brothers, who are 29 and 31 years old, have more experience. They ask their customers for $30 for their special cuts.

The customers have brought the brothers pictures of famous Bollywood actors, sports stars and even Mickey Mouse. The customers say they want something that will create interest at social gatherings(聚会) or parties.

Darbar Singh got a haircut that looked like the Taj Mahal on the day when a reporter visited the brothers’ business. “The monument(历史遗迹) is very beautiful,” he said. He added that his special haircut will help him “stand out in the crowd”.
