JAKARTA - Salons or barbershops are places that men often visit to maintain their appearance. Not infrequently, celebrities also have regular hair care places for optimal appearance in the entertainment industry.

Now, salons or barbershops that are often used by celebrities not only offer quality hair stylists, but also a place that is clean, comfortable, and can protect their privacy.

Therefore, a place to style your hair that is clean, comfortable, and can maintain privacy is the mainstay of Papakilo Barbershop & Robotic Skycafe's services.

Raker Djaja Sumantri and his son, Kentaro Alif Tanido, also founded the barbershop, inspired by the services available on airlines.

“The concept here is like that of an airline. We provide economy, business, and first class. All with different services," said Raker Djaja Sumantri.

The three classes presented use smart mirrors, technology developed by Papakilo itself with the help of students and graduates of well-known universities.

Meanwhile, those who come to get their hair cut can watch various services provided on the smart mirror, such as watching films or YouTube shows.

Kentaro said that Papakilo Barbershop was created for those who need privacy, such as celebrities and famous people. However, this barbershop also continues to accept the general public with the same facilities.

"Our target is in the realm of artists and people like officials who need privacy, because here it is also close to Soekarno Hatta Airport, so you can also take transit," said Kentaro.

Even though the concept is a barbershop, the services provided include all services available in salons in general.

Raker Djaja Sumantri also said that women could also visit.

“Even though it's a barbershop, women can also come here. They can choose business class," he said.

Dipo Latief, entrepreneur and ex-husband of Nikita Mirzani, said that the offer given by this barbershop was very attractive.

As someone who is busy with a lot of work, he can straighten his hair at any time while working.

"This is the first time I have been to a barbershop with a private concept like this. There is a screen in front of us, we can watch YouTube and continue working here," said Dipo Latief.

“Basically, everything is prepared without disturbing people, because it's private here. The thing is, it seems like there's no time to shave your hair, but with this concept, there could be time," he concluded.
