A Lego Barbershop Build

This little Lego Barbershop build is the creation of Maxim Baybakov. This little corner has all the features of a classic barbershop. A waiting area, the comfy chairs, pictures of haircuts on the wall, gigantic mirrors, and even all the tools. The classic checkerboard style floor tiles probably took a long time to get lined up straight. A couple of stand out details include the Minifigure sweeping up the cut hair (which is made out a bunch of black Lego horns) and the white Minifigure beard representing shaving cream. There are a lot of great ideas in this Lego MOC. Such as how the chairs use gold bananas as armrests. My favorite detail though, is the jar of Barbicide on the counter.
