barber

A barber is a person whose occupation is mainly to cut, dress, groom, style and shave men's and boys' hair or beards. A barber's place of work is known as a "barbershop" or a "barber's". In previous times, barbers (known as barber surgeons) also performed surgery and dentistry. With the development of safety razors and the decreasing prevalence of beards, in Anglophonic cultures, most barbers now specialize in cutting men's scalp hair as opposed to facial hair.

理发师的职业主要是为男人和男孩的头发或胡须剪除、造型、梳理、设计造型和剃除。理发师的工作场所被称为“理发店”或“理发店”。在以前，理发师（被称为理发外科医生）也进行外科手术和牙科手术。随着安全剃须刀的发展和胡须的减少，在英语文化中，大多数理发师现在专门为男性理发，而不是面部毛发。
dress: arrange someone's hair into a special style.
style: design clothing, furniture, or the shape of someone's hair in a particular way

In modern times, the term "barber" is used both as a professional title and to refer to hairdressers who specialize in men's hair. Historically, all hairdressers were considered barbers. In the 20th century, the profession of cosmetology branched off from barbering, and today hairdressers may be licensed as either barbers or cosmetologists. In the early 1900s an alternative word for barber, "chirotonsor", came into use in the U.S.

在现代，“理发师”一词既被用作专业头衔，也被用来指专门从事男士发型的理发师。历史上，所有的美发师都被认为是理发师。在20世纪，美容师的职业从理发师分支出来，今天美发师可能被授予理发师或美容师的执照。20世纪初，理发师的另一个词“Chirotonor”在美国开始使用。Chiropractic is the treatment of physical problems by pressing on and moving the bones in someone's back and joints. So, 按头师，不是降头师。降头术是流传于东南亚地区的一种巫术。降头术分为“药降”、“飞降”、“鬼降”等多种类型。

Most modern barbershops have special barber chairs, and special equipment for rinsing and washing hair. In some barbershops, people can read magazines or watch TV while the barber works.

The barber pole, featuring red and white spiraling stripes, symbolized different aspects of the craft. It is a symbol from the time when barbers used to perform medical procedures. The white and red stripes represent bandages and blood while the blue stripes represent veins.

Equipments: Barber chair, Hair clipper, Barber cloth or wrap, Barber neck paper/tape, Hair dryer, hair blower or blow drier, Hair scissors etc.

The market for barber supplies is estimated to have revenue of around twenty billion dollars. The industry in the U.S. market is expected to grow by around 3% per year between 2017 and 2022. 20 * 10亿 * 6.35 / 79.59亿 = 16 人民币/人。

Haircuts also occur in space at the International Space Station. During the various expeditions astronauts use hair clippers attached to vacuum devices for grooming their colleagues so that the cut hair will not drift inside the weightless environment of the space station and become a nuisance to the astronauts or a hazard to the sensitive equipment installations inside the station.
