Barber shop - The Man, street 15

This is where our community discusses almost anything! While we're mainly a Cambodia expat discussion forum and talk about expat life here, we debate about almost everything. Even if you're a tourist passing through Southeast Asia and want to connect with expatriates living and working in Cambodia, this is the first section of our site that you should check out. Our members start their own discussions or post links to other blogs and/or news articles they find interesting and want to chat about. So join in the fun and start new topics, or feel free to comment on anything our community members have already started! We also have some Khmer members here as well, but English is the main language used on CEO. You're welcome to have a look around, and if you decide you want to participate, you can become a part our international expat community by signing up for a free account.

Thanks. I might give them a buzz.
It's called The Man.
So, it's like one old guy cutting your hair in, what I imagine for $3, a less than salubrious atmosphere, perhaps smoking a cigarette?
No. You are taking its name too literally.
If you feel better paying more, I'm sure they'll accept.

Did you not mean to reply to Bongmab instead?


Consistency, wise, my go-to is the neighbour in the province, along Highway 5.

Every time, a good haircut.
Good coffee
Good chat- though we each don’t understand a thing the other is saying (Think Rowan Atkinson/Barclacard ad, 20th century)
Bit of a long trek for a quick trim, though.

Number 2 is/was a chap near the Pagoda and Phsar Kendal/st172

I’m at the stage where clippers with a grade #1, all over, and run the lawnmower over my eyebrows is a job well done, though. On that basis, both my chaps are miracle workers.

I'd rather shave my balls with a lawnmower than go to a gay Cambodian barber.

They are not gay. The earlier poster has an overactive imagination.

I have to ask… why?

Is it an enthusiasm for shaving one’s balls, rather than a dislike of the other factors?
Is it thrill seeking?
Or something against gay/Cambodian?

Good idea. It might calm you down a bit.

I'm a masochist.

Well, there you go - I find that lady in Kampot wildly overrated and definitely overpriced - but to each their own

Mony only charges $5 for a men's haircut and wash and she is very qualified. 🙄🙄
