Islam Chipsy awaits a haircut at his friend barber shop in Cairo.

"Islam Chipsy was a hard man to track down. It took us about a week but we finally made contact and were invited to a small barber shop where Islam and his crew were getting haircuts before an evening show. It was great spending time with this vibrant musician in a quiet setting. I hung around for an hour or so while Islam and the barber shop owner went about their business and prayer."
