Blindfolded Italian barber performs all sorts of extreme haircuts

An Italian barber has appeared performing a series of blindfolded and extreme haircuts in his barbershop in Lecco, northern Italy.

The video, shot over March and April 2018, shows Remigio Morelli variously with a band over his eyes and a tiger mask on his head, skilfully giving his customer a haircut while other customers look on.

"It's been almost three years since I've started practising this skill," Remigio explained.

First, he performs a blindfolded cut on a customer who also has his eyes covered. Then, he is seen giving a haircut up a ladder, while also blindfolded.

"I do it for passion, to demonstrate a degree of experience and in an attempt to go beyond. I reckon it's something really photogenic but, considering the danger my customers are put in, it's a demonstration of great technique and skills from he who performs the cut," he concluded.
