Hey,

I read about Costakis Costa, a barber from Mario’s in Leytonstone. He’s been cutting hair for decades, following a family tradition from Cyprus. It’s cool how he enjoys chatting with customers and feels like part of their lives. His story taught me about the importance of community and doing what you love. It’s neat to see how a simple job can mean so much to people over generations.

I love the fact that local businesses like this still manage to keep going. I’m also loving the shirt!

We lived in lovely Leytonstone for 20 years, and Costakis was the only barber I’d trust with my beard and what remained of my hair. Lots of great chats about E11 and beer. Great bloke, and long may he continue in his shop. A constant in ever-changing East London.

What a lovely story and I’d really like to be around and watch the film. Such a pity it’s too far…
