Kedai Gunting Rambut (Abdullah bin Johar)

Nestled among the shophouses – most of which were built in the 1930s – at Pekan Sungei Besi is this old-school barber shop manned by Abdullah bin Johar. The space looks its age, decked out with yellowed posters, brushes, wires dangling off the railing, and an old radio to keep Abdullah company. The haircuts are pretty much basic but you can expect good service (and a friendly chat) in return.
