Anime-Style Portrait in a Barbershop

An anime-style illustration of a young adult Black man in a barbershop. He sits in a vintage red barber chair wearing a white cape with a thin teal stripe, his rich espresso skin tone and fresh fade hairstyle with tight curls on top. He looks toward the viewer with warm, expressive anime eyes, soft shading on his cheeks and a confident smile. The barbershop is cozy and stylish, with warm amber lighting, wood-paneled walls, and a tiled floor. In the background, a large mirror reflects his profile and the barber’s gloved hands and scissors at work, or a subtle silhouette of the barber cutting another client. On the counter are clippers, scissors, a comb, and a spray bottle; a classic black-and-white barber pole near the window adds retro charm. The scene features crisp linework, cel shading, vivid colors, and dynamic anime intensity, with cinematic lighting, shallow depth of field, and painterly textures. 4k resolution, cinematic mood, hopeful and stylish.
