EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the resilience and dedication of the staff at "He" a plush gents hairdressers in Plaistow's High Street during the 1970s. With its teak formica tops, knotty pine wood walls, and comfortable padded seats for customers, this establishment exuded luxury. However, when faced with power cuts that threatened to disappoint their loyal clientele, the resourceful staff took matters into their own hands. In an extraordinary display of commitment, they moved their chairs onto the pavement and continued business as usual. Armed with cans of instant shave and trusty hand clippers, these skilled barbers transformed the outdoor space into an impromptu salon. Their determination to provide top-notch haircuts despite challenging circumstances is truly commendable. The photograph showcases not only a unique street scene but also highlights London's outer boroughs' vibrant spirit. It serves as a testament to human ingenuity and adaptability in times of adversity. This slice of history reminds us that even when faced with unexpected obstacles, individuals can find creative solutions to keep serving their community. As we gaze upon this image from Memory Lane Prints, let us appreciate the humor intertwined within this remarkable moment captured on film—proof that sometimes life throws curveballs our way but it is up to us how we handle them.
