An early woodcut from Hiratsuka's first decade of printmaking, this image of a hairdresser at work captures the quotidian intimacy of a service transaction. Dating to around 1913, before his formal study under Yamamoto Kanae, it shows the direct observational impulse that would underpin his entire career. The figure subject — rare in his mature output — places this among his most personal early works.
