This isn’t my first time I’ve thought about this. I’ve always felt there’s something special about the bond between a man and his barber: #therapy, trust, tradition, all rolled into one. I even wrote about it a few years ago. But looking at this chair again today, I figured it’s worth sharing on #Nostr , especially since last time, I posted about orange-pilling my barber.
There’s just something sacred about this chair, this guy, and the comfort they bring. But now I’m curious: do Western men feel this too? Or is it just us Arab men who treat the #barber ’s chair like a second home?

quoting note1g44…ej5d🟣HOW I ORANGE-PILL BARBERS:
🔸 Fee: $25. I hand him $20 and say, “I don’t have the right change, but I can pay you $10 in #Bitcoin. It’s fast, easy, and way better than cash.”
🔸 He looks hesitant. I reassure him:
• “You don’t need an ID, a picture, or anything complicated. Give me 2 minutes, and I’ll show you.”
🔸 I guide him to download BlueWallet, Aqua, or Blink.
• 1 minute later, the app is ready. I send the payment and explain what’s happening as the Bitcoin lands in his wallet.
By now, he’s curious. “What else can I do with this?”
• I explain the seed phrase, custody, and how he can attract more customers.
• “Bitcoiners will love paying you directly.”
Then it happens:
🔸 Half the time, he notices the Lightning icon. I grab my phone, send him an instant tip on Lightning, and his face lights up when he sees how fast it is.
Suddenly, the conversation shifts. He’s asking more questions, excited to learn.
Every barber, every chance, every conversation—it matters.
NEVER STOP ORANGE-PILLING. NEVER STOP TRYING.
