💈 Puro Scissor Snipping ASMR | Exploring Puro Handsome Barbershop in Vibrant San Antonio, Texas

- I recently got a Puro Handsome Barbershop scissor-snipping haircut in the beautiful majestic barbershop located in the heart and soul of downtown San Antonio, Texas.
We loved meeting Tommie Gonzalez, owner of Puro Handsome Barbershop, and hearing his story 🙌🏼
Tommie hails from Brownsville, Texas and had a career in television broadcast marketing as well as the music industry prior to making the switch to becoming a barber. Work took him far from his home in San Antonio, Texas, to Berlin, Germany, and Scandinavia.
However, with the proliferation of digital music downloads, Tommie became increasingly disillusioned with the industry.
"I didn't find any value in it anymore," Tommie explained.
A haircut, however, is something that can never be downloaded, streamed, or delivered to your door! This was a reassuring awakening for Tommie.
Depressed and no longer happy with the direction of his place in the music industry, it was a chance meeting within a simple three-chaired barbershop in Oslo, Norway, that proved to be a pivotal turning point!
The shop was owned by an older barber who had been cutting hair for over 40 years in the same location just off a small breezeway near a performance hall called the Folketeateret. The inside of the shop was a collection of seemingly random items that had taken over the space, and in between the magazine piles and boxes were three barber chairs.
Waiting by his chair was a barber who was happy to receive the next customer and share a moment or story. A low-resolution picture framed of the barber with his old Corvette proudly hung from the barber's mirror!
"He just made me feel like I was the most important person in the world," added Tommie, "He made me feel like I was welcome there.” And this was at a time when Tommie was down and heartbroken, and he says, “nothing made me feel good.” He remembers this barber just put him in the best mood he had been in a very long time ❤️
✨ So in 2016, Tommie enrolled in barber school and began his barbering journey.
Now Tommie owns two Puro Handsome barbershops in downtown San Antonio 💈 He is quick to share his San Antonio roots and desire to promote local culture. Inside, the shop is a small art gallery of local artists, products are locally sourced, and you can ask the barbers anything about the San Antonio area!
Tommie explained the loose translation of "puro" as "100%, through and through, genuine, any synonym you can imagine of those adjectives.”
If you ask locals the meaning of puro, you will get a lot of different interesting beautiful answers, "and none of them are wrong!" Tommie adds. He thinks, "It's a very unique and special word for this community."
Much like his vision for Puro Handsome, an immersive experience and uniquely San Antonian!
A HUGE thank you to Tommie and his beautiful mom for all the good company, great conversations, and for showing us some of your favorite spots around San Antonio 🤗💕

It was an unbelievably cool experience to do this and be part of Harry’s storyteller legacy. I put a lot of love and care into my shops and to have Haircut Harry visit them was a huge sign that I’d done SOMETHING right. I love downtown San Antonio and I love being a barber. Thanks for watching. I’ll try to answer as many questions as I can from y’all. 🍻 cheers!
Thank you so much Tommie and everyone at Puro Handsome for all your warm hospitality and great conversations 🙏🏼❤️ It was wonderful to hang out with you guys and visit both of your shops 💈🙌🏼 We loved our time in beautiful San Antonio!
Has anyone ever told you, you look the spitting image of the Actor Danny Huston but with a beard! I had to do double taken when the video started. Loved the video, sent me to sleep after 20 minutes it was so relaxing to watch you work! :D
The way you grip the scissors is different from anyone I’ve seen, and I’ve seen a lot of Harry vids! Is just unique to yourself or is the grip called something?
@@187seabass ha! Thanks for noticing. I’m sure somebody calls this something unique but I first learned it from an Italian dude I went to barber school with in London. It’s been about 2 years now that I stay consistent with it and ultimately it serves the purpose of keeping my wrist in a comfortable position while still just using my thumb to open and close the cutting blade and keep the other blade absolutely still for precision cuts.
@@lewismassey9312 thank you! You’re the first to say Danny Huston. Thanks for watching.
Here we go again, Harry thinking he's the owner of the barber shop... casually walks in and then suddenly turns around and locks the door...😂
Harry's getting bolder, soon he's gonna be entering those barbershops like a cowboy walking into a saloon - just kicking the door
It looks like he’s about to commit extortion lol
He’s the godfather to all the barbers. Pay up or he’s taking thumbs.
The barber is locked in there with HIM
@@zombiTrout He's gonna make them an offer they can't refuse!
Scissor cuts are the best.
Thanks for watching 💈✂️
Grateful to call Tommie my barber and amigo! His craftsmanship, patience and skill is unmatched! Bravo, Harry for stopping in Puro Handsome
Locking the door reminds me of the scene from a Bronx Tale. ‘We asked you to leave but now you’s can't leave’ 😂
paulhayes354. Harry's going to let him off easy just this once! Next time the gloves come off!
Ah I was thinking the samething,just could not place the movie. Thanks going to go watch it now!
Love that scene they sure got taught a lesson
Amazing film
idk if u get this alot but whoever is behind that camera deserves alot of the respect cause holding that camera for almost a hour is insane tru talent fr fr keep doing your thing harry!!
Agreed 😅😊
🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼
i think its his mystery woman helping with filming ❤❤
The two Mike Vallely skateboard decks hanging on the wall. Legendary.

❤
So glad you got to visit San Antonio! I hope you enjoyed your time here!!
my family is from Brownsville. go St. Joes!
Wow I Can't Believe you came to San Antonio!..Awesome!..I've always wanted to be on your Channel!..Lol One day who knows..Hope you enjoyed your stay .
Can I ask do you have to pay the barber extra money for length of extra time that is needed to cut your hair for your videos and for lost of other customers not be allowed in the shop because you locked the door 😂 fantastic video by the way love it
He put an outstanding amount of effort into that haircut! I wish all barbers worked that hard to make their clients look great.
Keep up the good stuff!👍
Thank you for your videos. As someone who’s autistic they really relax me with the calm sounds
Thanks for watching 🙏🏼 Glad you find our videos relaxing :)
0:26 "Chin up for me, please"
Just had a flashback and now I'm expecting to hear about the daily foaming cleansah
Tommie is someone I look up to a lot and have for a long time, a great example of a great barber, great person, and great leader ! Love to see this ! Congrats from MN Tommie ! 🎉
🤎🤎🤎
If harry gets a mohawk one of these days, that video will break the internet, seeing how he always tells the barber, " do whatever you like!"
I truly wonder what his reaction would be if someone actually gave him that lol
That's why he locks the door, insurance
**barber gives full face hot towel, the hits the lights and leaves**
chaselancon1773. I believe someone gave him a rather elevated rockabilly haircut one time. Although it wasn't too far over the top.
nickp9992. Lol. Locking the door is Harry's passive aggressive way of letting him know who's the boss and thats he's going to get a great haircut!
The excitement I got from reading the title seeing that you finally made it to San Antonio, my hometown. I’ve been a follower since 2019. Great haircut by Tommie.
Oh this is a special one. I'm 100% playing this a few more times this week while working
One of the most powerful asmr video ever. Still trying (this is my fifth attempt) to watch it from start to finish, but I keep falling to sleep
I know I keep falling asleep too. It's really nice and......😴
After a slightly less than perfect morning,glad to chill to Harry👍Don’t know why but these videos calm me down🤔
Absolutely love the pure scissor cuts - Tommie has great skill.
Thank you!! ✂️
I've watched all your videos, and this might be the best. It's just perfect. 10 out of 10, thank you Harry!
My fave is the Lisbon video. I love it.
I just love the "gripping _object_ shot", it's just satisfying!
An all scissor cut?! Might be my new favorite since Calen at Electric Barbering.
Hope you like it 💈✂️
The fact that you have been follically blessed makes the barbers you visit , worldwide in most cases , their jobs so much easier with all the creative freedom you give them , always a work of art and a joy to watch . Filming has high production quality too .
My jaw dropped @ 3:17 when the master barber showed his scissors stance. The last time i had such a reaction to a blade was when Darth Maul first revealed his double bladed lightsaber in the phantom menace.
What a great bio and reminder that you can always choose a new adventure in life if you are no longer happy with what you are doing!
Love it! He really knows and loves his craft
What a privilege it is to be allowed to watch these craftsmen at work.
The camera magic is next level!
As always, great work showcasing another unique barber and his shop!
Tommie is Amazing! Love how he uses the scissors for so much of the haircut. Amazing!
This is one of my favorites! Perfect before bedtime
Instant classic! Great attention to detail.
The locking of the door is great lol
Best way to start the week. Loved the style of the shop and technique. The camera shots from the mistery woman are top notch as always. Thanks Harry
I usually just listen to these, but then i spotted some more black magic going on at 13:36 and now im thoroughly invested in watching the whole thing in detail XD
Keep watching for more 🤣
wow, what a masterpiece!!! Keep it up Harry!
This is another great, classic video to relax to. What a great channel. Looking good Harry.
Harry I’ve been watching and enjoying your videos for years. Glad to see you visiting my hometown! I hope you enjoyed San Antonio.
Thank you so much for being with us over the years 🙏🏼 We had a great time visiting San Antonio and hanging out with Tommie!
Thank you for sharing this and making so many people’s day. It has made mine!
Commenting for the algorithm.
Super cool skill he have..grt vdo n yes did someone noticed tht people walking backwards outside shop 😂 grt editing as usual
I like the stories behind the barbers and their shops. The haircut too, obviously. So relaxing
He’s got 2 Mile V decks !!! Legendary Skater
Another gem of a location and video. Thank you for the wonderful content 😊
Fantastic! Loved the video! Scissor cuts are always my favorite.
Great to hear you enjoyed the new video with Tommie 💈✂️ Thanks for watching 🙏🏼
that guys is a lowkey boss and he made you look like a boss
Love it ,he always find the quaintest lil barbershops
beautiful scissor cut
Love it when the barber has long sleeves. Captures the activity so much better when the mics are on cuffs.
One of the best haircut of yours
Thank God! I needed a new video today. Thanks, Harry!
Wow! this is the most precise haircut I've ever seen. This guy cuts hairs like a mathematician working on the proof of a difficult theorem.
I think this one is going to hit the million views very quickly.
That would be awesome! 🙌🏼💈❤️
I love watching that one with the Oriental Gentleman who's of age he was just so so precise
this is def very cool...relaxing...using the scissors and comb alone adds amazing detail and relaxation
Always the king. Thumbs up!!!!❤❤❤
Hey Jason ❤️❤️❤️
Thank you harry for another amazing and relaxing video to unwind to.
Thanks for watching the new video with Tommie - glad you liked it!
A good haircut can make you feel better. It’s great for the soul. Keep up the great work.
Some of the old vintage barber shop signs, used to say; "Look better; Feel better". I found this to be true.
Harry, Wish I had known you were in town. I was always wondering if I would ever come upon the chance to get a haircut or shave in one of the shops that you have featured in your wonderful videos. Now that possibility is certainly in reach. All I have to do now is to muster up enough courage to take my life in my hands driving 25 miles south on I-35 to come visit his shop. But I will!
World travel, cultural education, opportunity to admire skilled craftsmen/woman, relaxation and interesting camera work. These videos have it all. Thank you.
I loved the video! Did anyone else notice the people walking backwards outside the window in that one shot at 13:36?
Great video as always Harry
Harry is back in my Home State of Texas! Tommie was a superb Barber with a really slick shop! I Hope you enjoyed your stay and got to eat some good Bar-B-Q while you were there! ♥👍
finally a destination that Harry visited in my neck of the woods. I'll definitely be visiting
Unprecedented scissor sound.
👍🏼👍🏼👍🏼
Isn't it lovely ?
Awesome hair cut!
Perfect timing, nap time 😊
Good looking haircut 💇♂️
Love the scissors Harry! Great work as always!
This is a pure relax
Comecei a seguir você desde a pandemia e seus vídeos sempre me acalmaram. Obrigado por me trazer paz com seus vídeos. Abraços do Rio de Janeiro
I’ve followed your videos for some time now and you finally come to my city. Awesome. I only wish I would have been able to meet you.
Ahhh someone got clever with the pedestrians. lol. Careful if you walk backwards to much you end up falling over. But were they walking backwards. lol. Thanks for the video. Very entertaining
Great video! small scissors ✂️great sound!!
So relaxing, hell yeah
Excelente corte de cabello Harry y que barbero la experiencia , y talento buenazo !
I am amazed at the precision and attention to detail. If samurais cut hair, it would look like this.
Like the magic combs and the couple who do the moonwalking. Nice with some twist in the video
Harry you came to San Antonio I’ve been watching you for years now i never thought you’d come into my home town you are awesome love your content
The "trick cut" with pomade was great! I was wrapping my mind why did he put pomade on your neck. On the second viewing i realised that you inserted a cut to pomade! Great trick!
Thanks again Harry. 😎 Greetings from Norway 🇳🇴
A nice early 1, Harry. Just in time for a rainy Sat.
Perfect time to relax 👍🏼
New Harry video on my birthday? Truly blessed to have this sleeping pill called Harry. Works every time.
Wishing you a Happy Birthday 🎉🎂🎊 Hope you had a wonderful day!
@@HairCutHarry I deff did and a perfect night's rest with this video to start lol amazing precision by the barber
That’s awesome! Glad you had a great day 👍🏼
Love the Mike Vallely boards!!
Scissor technique especially the way he holds it is unusual.. Man does nice work.
13:36 I think they knew you were filming that day.
Walking backwards
i watched that back a couple times. had to make sure i was seeing right 😄
Their are many camera “tricks” sprinkled throughout their videos. I remember seeing one where Harry or the barber wasn’t reflecting in the mirror for one shot. Classic stuff!
I think it's an editing trick (reversed video).
@@sebastianschmidt3869
Yes, I was thinking the same thing after a little thought, because it's just a two second shot.
Great job Harry he did a great job looking forward to him giving you a shave ☺️
Thanks for watching! The shave video with Tommie will be coming 🔜
19:05 Harry rocks some new style😂😂
Water bottle work is magical
This is already my personal favourite of all of Harry's collection....
Amazing haircut 👌💯
I like the barbers that don’t try and small talk. My favorite so far is Elizabeth’s barber shop
I loved this one best haircut I think I’ve seen on the channel
That’s a bold statement, he’s had some great cuts.
Great listen
43:06 Is that someone trying to get in? Eventually I think I heard some tapping/knocking at the door too. Good thing you locked it 😂
Rain? Cool here in Midwest... nice warmer-upper!!!
It was rainy and very chilly when we filmed this 🌧️
New Video, perfect for the evening ♥
Great timing 👍🏼
When he first started out I imagined this turning into a 6 episode series haircut
Mike V decks up on the wall is amazing! I have a Natas deck on my living room wall. Respect 🙏
The silver deck in the corner is a Natas deck. 🫡
I dig these Asmr scissor cuts. Utah shave was great too
Thanks for watching - glad you like them!
One of the better cuts in the last few years
Miss the days where I could get a haircut now a its the bic blade for me love the vids Harry sound of the scissors relaxes me 👍
Scissor cuts with a razor finish are the best!
Nice.....sooo relaxing too ❤
