EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "A Close Shave" we are transported to the vibrant streets of Lahore, Pakistan. The image captures a smiling Pakistani man as he indulges in one of his regular visits to the local barber shop. Grooming is an essential part of daily life for most men in Pakistan, and it is not uncommon for them to visit their trusted barbers several times each week. The photograph beautifully showcases the cultural significance placed on personal hygiene and grooming in South Asia. The man's smile reflects both his satisfaction with the service provided by the skilled barber and his pride in maintaining a well-groomed appearance. As we delve deeper into the image, we notice intricate details such as the razor held delicately by the barber's hand and shelves adorned with various shaving creams and soaps. These elements highlight not only traditional grooming practices but also offer a glimpse into an age-old profession that has been passed down through generations. Located within Lahore's historic old city, this bustling scene encapsulates both tradition and modernity coexisting harmoniously. It serves as a reminder of how seemingly mundane activities like getting a shave can be rich with cultural significance, connecting individuals across different backgrounds. Through AG's lens, we are invited to appreciate this intimate moment capturing an everyday ritual that holds deep meaning within Pakistani society – where grooming becomes more than just personal upkeep; it becomes an expression of identity and self-care.
