Crazy barbershop in Tokyo – level 2

07-01-2015 07:00

A barbershop in Tokyo is offering free haircuts. The only problem is that you must let the barber do whatever he wants. And some cuts and colours can look crazy!

So if you’re looking for a drastic makeover, go to Japan! It is the end of the year, and many Japanese want to cheer up their parties or simply be different.

It can be fun to be different from the others, but it is not so great if you get fired – many companies in Japan have rules which regulate some hairstyles.

Difficult words: drastic (extreme), makeover (a big change of your looks), cheer up (make happier).

You can read the original story and watch the video in the Level 3 section.
