Fantastic Portraits of a Barbershop’s Customers Getting Their Hair Cut














Photographer Christoph Soeder‘s project Clear-Cut attests to that basic truth that sometimes the simplest ideas prove to be the most winning.
Clear-Cut is a series of portraits of customers at the ‘Atlantic’ barbershop in Newport, Wales, that Christoph photographed against a vivid red background and in their zebra striped gown, obtaining a set of deliciously funky images out of an action so ordinary as getting a haircut.
With Clear-Cut, Christoph reflects on the man’s contradictory but coexisting needs of belonging to a community, symbolized by the identical elements used in all the portraits, and affirming our individuality through a unique haircut.
