BARBERSHOPS AND NEIGHBORHOODS


THE STYLE-SETTERS CLUSTER IN THE BLACK NEIHBORHOODS 

At La Goutte d'Or, barbers and beauty salons dot the streets and the styles are endless:

  • Between boulevard Barbès and rue Doudeauville...





  • At métro Château Rouge




  • At rue de la Goutte d'Or, barbershops are on opposite sides of the street:

Zee Coiffure Mixte 
42 rue de la Goutte d'Or

Buono Coiffure
51 rue de la Goutte d'Or




The salon shown above functions non-stop
from 11 in the morning to 11 at night.

Another neighbor is around the corner.
On this night it closed early — at 10.

At trendy Ménilmontant and the lower-middle-class 13th, the rare barbers propose only a few styles: 
 
Rue Ménilmontant, 20th

Avenue d'Ivry, 13th
Rue de Tolbiac, 13th

 The contrast shows 
where the style began and flourishes:
Everyone else copies.
