Broadcasters' Eye S2023E07 - The Story of a Small-town Hairdresser Yoshida Barbershop

The Tori-cho shopping arcade is located in Ina City, Nagano Prefecture. It's home to a variety of small specialty businesses, some of which have been in operation for over a hundred years. One of them is Yoshida Barbershop, whose 86-year-old owner, Yoshida Satomi, still wields her scissors with skill. Fifty years ago, the salon was bustling with locals and visitors alike. These days, it's a much quieter place. Customers come to spend time with the warm and friendly Yoshida as she happily tends to her work.
