So it's no surprise that classic barbershops are making a comeback in the Argentine capital.
This time, though, they come paired with two other manly institutions: a bar and a gentlemen's club.
In the February episode of the international travel series "In 24 Hours", James Williams heads to the fashionable Palermo district to visit Salon Berlin, a stylish grooming spot with a vintage touch that has been making men look good and feel confident since 1999.

Here are three more licensed barbershops in Buenos Aires where men can get a sharp haircut and a cold beer.
La Epoca
Customers can still get a straight-razor shave at this traditional barbershop, which doubles as a museum and cafe-bar. You might need a stiff whisky to steady the nerves.
Rojo
Oscar Fernandez's unisex boutique doesn't just serve alcohol, it looks the part of a nightclub. Expect neon lights, street-art styling and flat screens playing music videos.
Salon Rojo, Marcelo Torcuato de Alvear 411, Buenos Aires, Argentina; +54 11 4311 6174
Nuevo Club Buenos Aires
Can't get into Rojo? No problem. This licensed unisex salon sits right down the same street.
