I’ve seen reality TV contestants outlast shorter trials of patience and walk away with prize money. By the time I sit down I could’ve learned a second language, or at least pretended to read every magazine in the shop twice. But the second those clippers start up, the whole hour evaporates like it never happened, and I remember exactly why I keep coming back. Best barber in Buderim is underselling it – he’s clearly just moonlighting here from somewhere more important. Henderson’s Barber shop Buderim
