One of the best things I like about traveling is that I collect wonderful stories, memories and sometimes even photos. This time in Bogota, Colombia was one of those times where my partner and I decided to take a break from exploring the city and relax in the hotel room with some drinks. The next thing you know, it's after midnight! So we decide to take a walk around the neighborhood before heading back to our room - not something we would normally do but since it was late instead of walking home, we started exploring its dark narrow streets until we saw something amazing. We stumbled upon a street-side barber shop with an old-school manual shaver being used as a cash register. We were amazed at how this simple item worked and how it took basic human skills to make it work. We decided to go inside and see what kind of fun we could have with this little machine.
The shaver was originally designed in Brazil in the late 19th century by Dr. Dário de Saavedra who made a fortune selling it in Brazil and Europe during his lifetime. Although they've been used since then and the designs and materials have changed over the years, these machines still work like before: they shave your face, clean your ears and hair. The oldest working models are over 100 years old and they still provide great service to barbers worldwide. Due to their small size, they are easy to move around and come with an extra battery so you don't have to worry about dead batteries or getting stuck somewhere during your travels. They are very simple devices that can be used by anyone who knows how to use one. "Barber-shaving" was invented in the 19th century in Europe as a way of paying for personal services. Soon this concept became popular all over the world because it allowed people to pay for services where people would either do it for free or at a discount rate. During the late 1800s, this form of payment became common in America and by 1910, more than 50,000 barbershops were working across the country. More than half of these shops did not even use a straight razor for their haircuts and instead came up with these unique barberic devices. I wonder if historians will discover some of these "old machines" in some unlikely places over the next few years... The models we found were made by two different companies: Roto Shave and Equine Equitation. We believe that Equine Equitation is the oldest company still active today, considering that they got their license to sell these machines back in 1999. The master of the workshop is Mr. Humberto Julbán who has been working at this location for over 30 years. Equine Equitation is also known as "Dr. Dário" in Brazil and they are one of the oldest companies that still makes these machines for barbers all over the country. Before the company moved to its current location, they produced many of these manual shaving devices in order to serve customers who did not have access to electric razors - which were still very rare during that time in Brazil . It was founded on 5 December 1864 by Dr. Dário de Saavedra, an engineer from Bahia.
