Haircut in Levuka

 

In Levuka, we have several hairdressers, but there is only one Mahesh.  He cuts everyone’s hair, whether they be Fijian, Indian, Chinese or European, young or old, male or female – it’s not a problem.

He has many stories to tell, amd you will always leave the chair with a smile on your face.

 

 

You will notice some newspaper clippings on the wall of his “salon” about the Asterix band.  They are well known throughout Fiji and have been around for many years.

Yes, Mahesh is is the keyboard player – just another of his talents. They don’t play much these days, but Mahesh has plenty of good stories to tell about their musical journey.

 

But there’s more!

Mahesh used to work as a press photographer. So if you want still photographs or videos taken, see Mahesh or his brother at the Lomaiviti Studio (at the front of his “salon”) for professional service and advice.
