Mr. Kakinouchi is a true artist, with an unparalleled eye for detail. You can tell he approaches each haircut with the precision of a surgeon, snipping and trimming until every strand of hair is in its perfect place.

This barber is truly amazing. His attention to detail is amazing. Great video Harry.

[@imacmanx8562]

Harry, I have to say.......when you usually tell the barber to "do whatever you want", well, you took it to a whole new level. One word....wow!

As someone who has suffered from sleep issues in the past, I swear - your videos have become my best sleeping aid. Just put one on, lay my phone down, and I’m asleep within 10 minutes. Cheers, Harry.

Watching Kakinouchi-san admire his work really is a joy to see. He seems passionate about what he does and that's really cool.

As an awkward person who struggles to keep up conversation with someone I don’t know intimately, like my hairdresser, a relaxing haircut in peace without talking is a dream! 💜

Hi Harry. You can just tell this guy is livin the dream. Livin his best life. All those little smiles he'd give the camera. He just has IT down. Great find Harry.

[@kittymervine6115]

I loved the little smile of the barber, with the head nod. He is proud of his work. He should be it looks fabulous.

[@Doodsy1975]

One of the best Harry. One of the coolest haircuts by one of the coolest barbers in one of the coolest barber shops. This one deserves to be in the HH hall of fame. It was over four years ago, on a day off from work, I discovered your channel, and sat there and watched countless videos of you getting shaves and haircuts in various places around the world. A hell of a lot has changed and happened in those four years, but what hasn't is that today I'm on a day off, and here I am watching you get a haircut in Japan. Really enjoyed this. Thanks mate.

Harry, this is one of your best videos in a long time. Not saying your others aren't good, but this one is sublime! It took me a while to finish it as i kept falling asleep and rewinding but got there in the end...just! Great haircut, what a talent.

[@Mark-pp7jy]

I've watched a fair number of HCH videos during the last few years, but this one felt different right from the start. I immediately started to get a peaceful feeling in my solar plexus and a narcotic sensation in my head. The artistry of the gentleman, the lighting and colors of the surroundings, and the stillness, even while cutting, made this so calming. And Harry, you wore that style with great aplomb! Well done everyone! ✌️❤️ 🇺🇲

[@jasongardner4458]

This is my all time favorite video you've posted. I hope you go see this guy again!

This man took "do whatever you like" to a new level. Literally parted a new part in Harry's hair for the first time in like 8 years lol

I love the way that these barbers have their shops, it looks awesome, & it shows how much that they take the time to make their shops so appealing, it just makes you want to go in & have a look, but I must say, I would LOVE to have this guys job, going to different countries just to have a haircut! What a great job that would be! One week you are in Ireland 🇮🇪 and the next in Japan 🇯🇵, I would love it! Great haircut from one of the masters of flying chopsticks 🥢!

Alright Haircut Harry. Normally I’m like okay…another person just posting videos of his life on KZbin to get a buck. But with yours, it’s not that way. I love going to the barbershop, it’s a relaxation for me. I love the sound of the buzzers and scissors. I love getting razor shaves and can watch razors shaves all day. So this time I will say thanks. And I’m a bit jealous. I’ve been to the barbershop in Tokyo you went to. Now as I see this Hiroshima one, I gotta try it. I also dig the Cork Ireland razor shave. Thank you sir!
