Its a case of shaving close to the bone as Redcar demon barber Mike Forbes gets to
Its a case of shaving close to the bone as Redcar demon barber Mike Forbes gets to work with a skeleton staff. His barber shop doubles up as an antique showroom. It was a one man show until Mike enrolled this skeleton for a little practise during quiet moments at his recently opened shop at station road. 11th January 1993

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photo print, we are transported back to the 1990s when Redcar demon barber Mike Forbes was making waves in his unique barber shop. As we gaze at the image, it becomes evident that this is no ordinary establishment. With a skeleton staff by his side, Mike's barbershop doubles as an antique showroom, creating an atmosphere like no other. The photograph captures a moment of quiet reflection for Mike as he hones his craft with the help of his bony companion. The skeleton stands tall and proud amidst vintage decorations and signs adorning the walls, adding to the charm and character of this one-of-a-kind business. It is fascinating to witness how Mike seamlessly combines two seemingly unrelated worlds - hairdressing and antiques - into a harmonious blend. His recently opened shop on Station Road has quickly become a local treasure trove for those seeking both a stylish haircut and nostalgic memorabilia. Stephen Elliott skillfully captures this intriguing scene through his lens, inviting us to ponder upon the creativity and ingenuity behind such an unconventional venture. This print serves as a delightful reminder of an era where businesses dared to be different, leaving their mark on our memories. As we admire this snapshot from history, let us appreciate not only Mike's craftsmanship but also his ability to infuse life into every aspect of his shop – even if that life comes in skeletal form!
