Jim visits his barber Pedro in Cholula, Puebla, for a haircut, a beard trim, and a conversation that goes far beyond grooming. In this longer version of our YouTube visit, they talk about Jim's son's first haircut, Mexican rock, daily life, and the relationship that develops between a barber and his clients. Along the way, you'll hear how to describe a haircut, compare beard services, ask about prices, and handle payment in Spanish.
