Haircut and Tooth Extraction in One Appointment
Imagine going in for a haircut and walking out with a freshly extracted tooth. That was perfectly normal centuries ago – because barbers were also the dentists and surgeons of the neighborhood back then. They didn’t just cut hair, they pulled teeth, let blood, and even used leeches for treatment.
As strange as it sounds today, barbers were considered versatile and skilled professionals back then. Still, the thought of hair clippings and extracted teeth ending up in the same room is enough to make anyone’s stomach churn.
