A barber (from the Latin barba, "beard") is a person whose occupation is mainly to cut, dress, groom, style and shave men's and boys' hair. A barber's place of work is known as a "barber shop" or a "barber's". Barber shops are also places of social interaction and public discourse. In some instances, barbershops are also public forums. They are the locations of open debates, voicing public concerns, and engaging citizens in discussions about contemporary issues. They were also influential in helping shape male identity.
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 English-speaking cultures, most barbers now specialize in cutting men's scalp hair as opposed to facial hair.
TERMINOLOGY
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. Barbers differ with respect to where they work, which services they are licensed to provide, and what name they use to refer to themselves. Part of this terminology difference depends on the regulations in a given location.
Different states in the US vary on their labor and licensing laws. For example, in Maryland, a cosmetologist cannot use a straight razor, strictly reserved for barbers. In contrast, in New Jersey both are regulated by the State Board of Cosmetology and there is no longer a legal difference in barbers and cosmetologists, as they are issued the same license and can practice both the art of straight razor shaving, colouring, other chemical work and haircutting if they choose.
In Australia, the official term for a barber is hairdresser; barber is only a popular title for men's hairdressers, although not as popular now as it was in the middle of the 20th century. Most would work in a hairdressing salon.
HISTORY
The barber's trade has a long history: razors have been found among relics of the Bronze Age (around 3500 BC) in Egypt. In ancient Egyptian culture, barbers were highly respected individuals. Priests and men of medicine are the earliest recorded examples of barbers. In some early tribes, a barber was one of the most important members, as it was believed that certain evil spirits could enter a person's body through their hair, and that cutting it was a way to drive them out. Due to their spiritual and religious beliefs, barbers even performed religious ceremonies, such as marriages and baptizing children. During these ceremonies, they would leave people's hair hanging down until after dancing; they would then cut the hair and tie it back tightly so that no evil spirits could enter and no good spirits could escape.
Men in Ancient Greece would have their beards, hair, and fingernails trimmed and styled by the κουρεύς (cureus), in an agora (market place) which also served as a social gathering for debates and gossip.
Barbering was introduced to Rome by the Greek colonies in Sicily in 296 BC, and barber shops quickly became very popular centres for daily news and gossip. A morning visit to the tonsor became a part of the daily routine, as important as the visit to the public baths, and a young man's first shave (tonsura) was considered an essential part of his coming of age ceremony.
A few Roman tonsores became wealthy and influential, running shops that were favourite public locations of high society; however, most were simple tradesmen, who owned small storefronts or worked in the streets for low prices.Starting from the Middle Ages, barbers often served as surgeons and dentists. In addition to haircutting, hairdressing, and shaving, barbers performed surgery, bloodletting and leeching, fire cupping, enemas, and the extraction of teeth; earning them the name "barber surgeons". The barber pole, featuring red and white spiraling stripes, symbolized different aspects of the craft. Barbers received higher pay than surgeons until surgeons were entered into British warships during naval wars. Some of the duties of the barber included neck manipulation, cleansing of ears and scalp, draining of boils, fistula and lancing of cysts with wicks.
19th CENTURY AND LATER
Barbershops were influential at the turn of the 19th century in helping to develop African American culture and economy. According to Trudier Harris, "In addition to its status as a gathering place, the black barbershop also functioned as a complicated and often contradictory microcosm of the larger world. It is an environment that can bolster egos and be supportive as well as a place where phony men can be destroyed, or at least highly shamed, from participation in verbal contests and other contests of skill. It is a retreat, a haven, an escape from nagging wives and the cares of the world. It is a place where men can be men. It is a place, in contrast to Gordone's bar, to be somebody."Late in the 19th century there were several noteworthy events in the barber profession that gave it an upward trend, and the effects are still carrying onward and upward. In 1893, A. B. Moler of Chicago, established a school for barbers. This was the first institution of its kind in the world, and its success was apparent from its very start. It stood for higher education in the ranks, and the parent school was rapidly followed by branches in nearly every principal city of the United States. In the beginning of barber schools, only the practical work of shaving, hair-cutting, facial treatments, etc., was taught as neither the public nor the profession were ready to accept scientific treatments of hair, skin and scalp. Not until about 1920 was much effort made to professionalize the work.
In the early 1900s an alternative word for barber, "chirotonsor", came into use in the USA.
The barber Sam Mature, whose interview with Studs Terkel was published in Terkel's 1974 book Working, says "A man used to get a haircut every couple weeks. Now he waits a month or two, some of 'em even longer than that. A lot of people would get manicured and fixed up every week. Most of these people retired, moved away, or passed away. It's all on account of long hair. You take old-timers, they wanted to look neat, to be presentable. Now people don't seem to care too much."
Despite the economic recession in 2008, the barber shop industry has seen continued positive growth.
Training to be a barber is achieved through various means around the world. In the USA, barber training is carried out at "Barber Schools".
Cost—Many states require a barber license in order to practice barbering professionally. The cost of barber school varies from state to state, and also from metro area to metro area. Schools in larger metropolitan areas tend to cost more than those located in more rural towns. Brand names can also affect the cost of barber school. Most barber schools cost between $6,500 and $10,000 to complete. Because each state has different minimums for training hours, the length and cost of the program can vary accordingly. Some schools tuition includes supplies and textbooks, whereas others do not. Barber license exam fees typically range from $50 to $150.
Length—Most states require the same amount of training hours for barbers as they do for cosmetologists. The number of hours required ranges from 800 to 2,000 training hours, depending on the state's licensing requirements. Most programs can be completed in 15 months or fewer.
Curriculum—The barber school curriculum consists of hair cutting, coloring and styling for men's hair and women's short hair. Chemical processes such as bleaching, dyeing, lightening and relaxing hair may also be taught. All cosmetology disciplines learn safety and sanitation best practices. Barber students can expect to learn some elements of anatomy, physiology, bacteriology and some small elements of pharmacology. It also teaches facial hair techniques, including traditional and modern shaves. Generally barber programs touch on scalp massage and treatments. Advanced barber training may include custom shave designs. It is more common in barbering schools than other cosmetology disciplines to get some business and ethics education, since entrepreneurship is especially common in the barbering trade with many professionals choosing to open their own barbershops. All the skills learned in barber school will be tested at the board exams, which typically feature a written and practical exam.

I think the EOS M is going to be a great addition for the type of shooting I generally like to do. It arrived in the mail yesterday morning looking like new, with the 90ex flash and two lenses. The instruction book is about an inch thick.

St. Marien (Neunkirchen (Saar))
The St. Mary's Church in Neunkirchen
View of the western front with the bell tower
St. Mary's is the Roman Catholic parish church of the Saarland district town of Neunkirchen. In the list of monuments of the Saarland, the church building is listed as single monument.
History
The current church building is the successor building of an in 1751 emerged Baroque hall church, which was demolished in 1884.
In the years 1884-1885 was built on the same site by the architect Ferdinand Schorbach (Hannover) the still existing building. The overall site management was held by architect Johann Heinrich Kastenholz (Hannover), the execution followed by Nikolaus Zimmer (Heiligenwald) and Nikolaus Ballog. Client and part-financier of the church was Carl Ferdinand Stumm.
In 1930 took place a restoration of the church interior. 1945-1947 the interior in a further restoration measure got a new color version. 1954 followed a rebuilding in which Mary reliefs were placed over the portals. Mid-1960s, the chancel was rebuilt in the context of a renewed restoration.
The 1980s were marked by further restorations. So in the years 1981-1986 a colored interior painting was carried out, bricked the north transept portal and set up a new entrance in the south aisle. In the years 1986 to 1989 followed the restoration of the roof, apse, facade and tower. The plannings for this purpose predominantly stem from Rudolf Maria Birtel.
Built Description
A look inside the church
Architecture
The church was built in the style of neo-Romannesque. As to the basic architectural form of the church building, it is a basilica with cruciform floor plan. The nave, divided into a nave and two aisles, is divided into four bays. To the nave adjoins a transept, to it the choir terminating in a semi-circular apse. The ceiling of the nave is formed by groined vaults, the one of the aisles by cross vaults.
The interior of the church
On the side walls of the chancel and in the north arm of the transept there are scenic representations of the painter Franz Schilling (Munich) from 1930. The mid-1960s followed painting of the church in gray with a few splashes of color on the capitals was carried out by restorer Mrziglod (Tholey). At the same time the chancel was rebuilt. In the process was created a new tabernacle and ambo by architect Rudolf Maria Birtel (Neunkirchen).
To the equipment of the church belong also a crucifixion scene and a Pietà in the form of sculptural works. They are situated in the western portions of the two side aisles. In addition, can be found inside the church a picture of grace in the form of an icon of Mary and a large altar cross.
The church exterior
On the churchyard is a Marian column, which was made in 1954 by sculptor Hans Bogler (Neunkirchen). It is cast iron from the Neunkircher ironworks.
The bas-reliefs with themes of Marian devotion in the tympanum fields above the four portals have been designed in 1954 by Reverend John Schmitt (Neunkirchen). Were executed the reliefs of Willi Hahn.
Bell
In the tower of the church there is a peal of four bells. Of these, the three largest in 1952 by the bell-founder Albert Junker from Brilon (Westphalia) have been cast in bronze. The smallest bell was built in 1924 by Junker & Edelbrock, also from Brilon.
The church had two predecessors peals that also each of them consisted of four bells. The first was from 1885 and was delivered by Andreas Hamm from Frankenthal and in 1917 during the First World War it had to be handed over completely. From the second peal, that came from the bell foundry Junker & Edelbrock (Brilon/Westphalia), the three largest bells were confiscated during the Second World War in 1942. Only the smallest bell remained until today in the tower.

Organ
The church organ
The organ of the church stems from the House Roethinger (Strasbourg) and was built in two sections in 1952 and 1954, according to a specification draft of the then organist of St. Mary's Church, Alfons Erner. The instrument whose concept structurally and phonetically is based on the romantic orchestral organ type occupies a special place in the Saar-Palatinate organ landscape. This is due to the interaction of the convincing own characteristics of the organ with the fine acoustics of the church hall.
The instrument is set up on a loft and has a free standing console. The wind chests are slider chests with electrical key and stop action. The total number of organ pipes is 3090, the material of the front pipes is zinc, their different coloring being the result of a different lacquering with gold and silver bronze.
The instrument has 49 stops (from which 9 stops in pedal are extensions of other pedal stops or transmissions from the manual stops (Dulcian)), distributed over 3 manuals and pedal. As part of the interior renovation of the church in 1985, the organ by the company Hugo Mayer organ building (Heusweiler) has been undergone a major overhaul in the course of it a partial re-voicing (reinforcement of the expression pedal) and the new construction of the console followed. Unfortunately, in doing so, the original sub and super accessories of the rückpositiv and espression pedal (Schwellwerk) were removed.
A sound document of the organ with the CD recording "The Roethinger Organ of the Marienkirche of Neunkirchen/Saar - Christoph Keller plays works of the late French Romanticism" of Christoph Keller is available.
