Mr. Delgadillo cut my hair when I was a kid in the 70’s. This really takes me back.
Damn, that was a long time back. Was he the same back then?
that's cool sir I'm definitely getting a haircut from him if I ever stop in Arizona
Hell, most locals wouldn't go to him because he screwed up our hair so bad. Hair cuts usually waited until a trip into town.

No he didn't, don't lie.

Man I could hear him talking all day long.
Angel is definitely a Legend. I wanna hear him talk all night
May 8, 2021 Update: Angel Delgadillo celebrated his 94th Birthday on April 19,2021 and is Happy and healthy.
Thank you
Thank you I was about to ask if he was doing fine
That is great to hear
Good to hear..
Is he still cutting hair?
i love how he praises his wife even after so many years of marriage. his morals and principles are something to behold.

@@MarcusCollins69 what kind of forced
@@MarcusCollins69 I take it as not have an actual conversation with some random person but at least still acknowledge them.

Normally I don't like the barbers to talk too much during your videos. But Angel here, I could listen to him all day!
bonesman gotta fine one that has something to say worth listening to, like this national treasure here
Yes I agree he's a great man.
Yes I agree. He should be a precher and a person who talks about how technology has been soo powerful on our atomsphete.
Me too
Update 2023: still alive at 96. Doesn't barber anymore but is still kicking well and bike riding
Love to see that he is still around at that age 🤩
I’ve gotten a haircut from “Papa Angel”; my before and after photos are in the shop.
When a barber can simply look at your hair and head, and know exactly what to do, you know you’re dealing with the best!
I can’t wait for my next haircut from him! It’s worth the three hour drive, one-way!
That's so awesome! We love Angel :)
My wife and I had the privilege of meeting Mr. Delgadillo back in the summer of '08 during our Route 66 tour. He is such a nice man. We really enjoyed visiting and talking with him about the history of route 66. He's also featured in the extra content of Disney"s /Pixar's "Cars" DVD.
mrrodman210 what was the feature about? If it’s not too hard to explain
Yeah, if you can.
He isnpired most of that movie
mrrodman210 really. I want to see it.
Michael Juliano ohhhh that makes sense, I was sitting here like “this really sounds like cars”😂
Those witty jokes though,
"I learned my trade at the central commercial butcher shop"
"the book says to wash my hands first"
"I lost the book 10 years ago"
"I just got here a few years ago myself, April the 19th 1927"
We need more humanbeings like this barber.
I’m so tired of people that are stuck on their smartphones and forget about conversations.

Tom Heusel we will use phones to destroy the phones. I’m 26 and really want to open an old time shop. I know the fishing stories would flood through there for years

It's always good to smile lol

"- What did you do during those 10 years?
- What did I do?
- Yeah
- It's a good thing I have a wife that knows how to make new clothes out of old ones. It's a good thing that I have a wife that knows how to wash clothes: they lasted 10-15 years. It's a good thing that I have a wife that knows what to do with leftovers. Some of the best meals I ate at home, like this morning, were leftovers from yesterday."
I literally cried when Mr. Delgadillo explained how he and his wife managed to survive during those long 10 years of hardship while being forgotten by the people who once used to pass through his town. It's just great how people like him can explain these sort of things with such a huge wisdom and such a strength to have a smile on their face when recalling those memories.
I hope one day I can visit this man and have a nice talk like this.

Cool Beans sorry to bring reality into your world. Maybe if all you trump loving Hicks would accept facts over emotions once in a while our country wouldn’t be falling apart.
despite how old he is he can remember all those years, months n exact time! of his life events. wow!
I was surprised too! What a beautiful mind!
Maybe his memory is great due to still working and doing the job he loves. Keeps him active. ☺
Because he told it over and over again. This helps to remember..
Watanabe Shirai you do realise my memory is so bad I think a goldfish has a better memory than me
Maybe so but he can't remember how the client wanted his haircut which was to cut it close but not to close but instead left the whole top of the clients head long...
Today I drove to Seligman, AZ and was lucky enough to receive both a haircut & shave at the barber shop! When I arrived Angel was giving an inspirational lesson to a group of teens who had stopped by on a tour bus. The kids loved his stories & the gift store staff were extremely friendly too! I couldn't wipe the smile off my face the whole time I was there. Happy to say the Guardian Angel of Route 66 is still going strong in 2019!
That's so awesome to hear! We love Angel ❤️
I wouldn’t have known about this place if not for your videos. Thank you!
If I’m down and out i come and watch him talk about the past he’s just one of those talkers that calms you down
"you don't know what it feels like to be forgotten for ten years". This guy has been through some hardship and to see how positive and full of life he is it's awesome.
Angel is a real barber. You can tell he has been doing this for years. The way he clippers over comb instead of just grabbing a guard. He saw the haircuts as soon as he said close but not too close. Black Belt Barber.
Hey . Dont trash the guards
Your a genius how did you figer this out nasa need you
His over 90 but his putting 30 year olds to shame with his humour and energy. Legend.
*EDIT 5/10/18*
(I'm saying 30 year olds in general btw).
because its genuine.
Zippy that guy is not 30 he looks about 40
ImBrixton I don't think he was referring to the guy.
Miguel Robles I was saying in general! =)
Mike Rotch you are what he is talking about because you can't spell shit
Love the history here. Well done documenting this barber.
Yes we all thanks for this wonderful person..
@@sukhvirsingh6850 ❤️👌
I get tears in my eyes watching this gentleman. My grandfather was a barber in Atlanta , Georgia before I was born. He gave me my first haircut when I was 6 months old. I spent a lot of time in his barbershop. I watched in awe when he preformed his art. He treated each customer as if they were the most important person in town. Watching him give hot shaves with his straight razor was always a special treat for me. I miss him and that barbershop so much. If I could go back in time, that is exactly where I’d go.
Is the shop still standing?
Good to see that he's healthy and happy. Thanks for the update, Harry.
😭😭
I fucking love this guy.
i was ready to write this comment
Kidlink77 God bless you all have a great day and Christmas!
+Lzaer Light thanks u 2!! :) :)
I would hang out at the shop just to hear him talk.
Most definitely!
My life has been pretty shitty this past few weeks and watching this video has somehow turned that around. I feel a little bit more positive, a little more optimistic and generally have a better outlook on life and I owe it all to Harry and Angel for making it possible
Good for you mate. Don’t let others get you down. When I need a pep talk I listen to this and it reminds me to get off my own ass and sort things out for myself. Nobody else will do it for me.
OII! It's been 2 years bud hopefully you are doing better in life now and in a much happier place I wish you nothing but the best 👌🏼 p.s. dbz is life 🔥
He is a type of man that every nation need. God Bless him. Love from Bangladesh❤❤❤
Love back at you from the United States
I could sit in his shop and talk to this man all day.
Sir
Me too bro :)
He says i served instead of i worked. Very representative of his attitude.

People like him are the only ones who can truly make America great again. To think once upon a time there were whole towns with friendly folks like him.
Imagine a world where this kind of man is common. Role model for us all. May God continue to bless you Angel!
Came for the ASMR, stayed for the history. Angel sir live forever.
"You don't know what you have, until you lose it"
Cinderella🤘🤘🤘🤘🎸🎸😚
This man has WISDOM. I didn't know how much I needed to hear his story. You also don't realise that harsh truth of thing that you grow up with.
Hearing someone use the word "Sir" not because they have to, but because they have respect for their fellow man. Class guy.
I love how he nonchalantly says that he was interviewed by a Japanese TV Show.
Also, I loved that he greeted the Japanese tourists with a "Welcome Home." That hits you right in the heart man
"It was hard to put beans on the table"
This man is legit AF.
Oldschool at its best.
He is a linving reminder about America should always be.
Mr Delgadillo reminds me of my grandfather. Most of us think the older generation only brags about how things were hard for them but all I've learnt from him is that things never really get easier. He used to talk about and compare the changes he saw as the world rolled before him. How life always found and will continue to find a way to challenge you. Only the tools change, only the perspective changes but the rules of life remain the same. When Mr. Delgadillo talks about his past, I remember how my grandfather would talk about the simple commodities he experienced in life and the beauty he felt in them. He was the most simple, faithful and caring man I have ever known. Though my father tells me about the stuff he told him, I just wish I myself had spent a bit more with him.
Thank you for gifting me my ideals, Baba.
We miss you and have, do and will always remember what you taught us.
And thanks for the brilliant vid, Harry. As always a pleasure to be able to watch gems like this. I'm only 19 but I hope I get to hit Seligman and meet it's Angel some day.

Leon Flames it's possible to Emily that long too.
Marl Kalone yes. I was like dang he smiles that long.

Angel is the true definition of a Barber and a Gentleman and a true scholar !
Yes, he is! We loved seeing him again!
I really love when he say "just cut me your fav haircut" and he say "no no no, i cut what you want"
What a legend. This talk needs to happen much more often in the US.
Mr. Delgadillo's steady hands puts many 20-yos to shame.
Hey speak fo yo self my hand steady too when i have free time u know
This guy would butcher a fade. I’m scared to see if he tried to taper me up.
It's people like you that be doing too much🤦🏿♀️
@@socalrocks9082 fades are weird
absolutely not true.
The way he's always unsatisfied with his work and how he wants it done better and better, even for a man with his experience and age. That's dedication right there, love for his job. Great video Harry
Hello - thanks so much for watching and commenting! Angel is a wonderful person and we had a lot of fun seeing him again!
I always love to hear old people's story, they're just magnificent.
Boy you can still hear the anger towards the government for forgetting them
He has every right to be upset still. The highways took away their livelihood on 66. However when you're this good of a barber, no super highway can keep people away.
Years later, it's gotten worse!
Yup. Rightfully so.
He reminds me of my grandfather who lived to be 99 years old. When I see someone that is very old, I always try to have a conversation with them, what you will learn in wisdom is worth more than any education.
This is the person Disney's Cars got their inspiration from.
Very fitting seeing as the message of Cars was one of making the big city big shot care about a small community in Rout 66 because of their loving nature towards him, a total stranger.
Really?How?Can you tell me more?
@@kyle79011 No, they actually consulted him! John Lasseter who consulted on Cars actually met Angel who told him stories about how all the cars left Route 66 and inspired what exactly happened to Radiator Springs in the movie.
He’s doc Hudson
wasnt the one car that was in radiator springs named angel?
That’s a real barber right there. You can just tell how good is he because as soon he is told by the customer what he wants, the barber doesn’t hesitate at all he knows exactly to do it. Crazy
@7:15
He's talking about Route 66 getting bypassed by I-40. I know exactly what he's talking about. I grew up in Tucumcari, NM. It too, was bypassed by I-40 in the early 80s. The town declined dramatically afterwards.
But there is a big interest in the Historic Route 66 tour business. We have a Historic Route 66 like most towns along the old Mother Road
You have people in their 50s-60s who are lethargic, immobilized and incapable of working. And yet there's champs like this guy at 91 years old giving haircuts. Really proves something.
What does it prove?
Ya it doesn't prove anything. Congrats on your 3 seconds of internet fame.
@Pauliemcdickerson Thedick if only any of that were true..lol
Amen
Pauliemcdickerson Thedick you mean the people that fought in Vietnam, My grandfather has 3 bullet holes in him, one functioning lung, cancer, and a failing lung due to agent orange, and he only weighs 90 pounds, but keep being ignorant and call his generation the worst even though they laid down their lives just to keep little shits like yourself have a decent life
Mad respect for this man, he's clearly been through so much
I. Agree. And now this world is a mess
Lmaooo the " I lost the book about 10 years ago got me 😂😂
That’s older than fortnite players
What an absolutely fascinating bloke, I could listen to him for hours. So much wisdom and life experience that the modern world is missing in abundance. I hope he is still living a happy and active life.
Seligman may be a classic and wonderful American town, but Angel Delgadillo is a national treasure!!!
This man reminds me of my great grandfather who passed away recently at 94. Literally had tears in my eyes because he would be saying the exact same thing about today’s society. Every time I seen him we would sit and he would give advice on life. I miss those talks , I’d love to visit this man someday and listen to him talk.
Just saw Angel on tv on Hairy Bikers show, looking and sounding good. As soon as I heard them say they were visiting Seligman I knew Angel would be on
tarff26 watched it on IPlayer. Good to see him very alive and well. I think he would have enjoyed giving them a trim.
One of the nicest gentleman I have ever had the honour & pleasure of watching and listening to The world 🌎 needs more Angel’s 🙏❤️🙏
90 years old?
Damn, i need to book a flight from Denmark to AZ asap..
Before this legend of a man passes away
Glad he gets to be immortalized by videos like this. I hope he makes it to 100
Absolutely agree my friend. Soon there will be nobody left of this caliber of integrity and sheer guts.
I live in Arizona and I'd love to see him, but from my location its several hours away. I live more south east of the state. I've only been to one real barber once and the guy mostly worked on men, not females or young children. So my hair cut has not the best. XD I just love this guy's compassion and story telling. You can tell he enjoys what he does and takes his time unlike most places that tend to rush.
@friendly Jew oh no 😢
Uhh guys he’s still alive👍
I'm a British tour manager and we always stop in seligman, the clients love it. Old Americana which was stupidly by passed and that is now regretted. Well done Angel. Keeping this part of old route 66 alive. Wonderful.
Thanks for stopping by and watching!
I hope this fine gem of person is still with us today. I love this guy.
Mr. Delgadillo is still alive hes 96 years old stil living and barbering in Seligman,AZ :)
He retired but yes is still alive and stays active on his bicycle
Glad to hear maybe haircut harry can return one last shave and an indepth interview allowing him to talk about what he wants as an legacy along with some of his story's .get them online and punished :)
He’s 90?!? Wow.
This man is brilliant. Im a 28 year old barber and this gentleman is awesome. I would love to a have a barberchair right next to him.
His blend technique with the flatop is perfect
Great video.This fine gentleman is a throwback to a lost time when Americans weren’t afraid to work hard for everything they had. Where determination and dedication were what made the world go round. This man has literally seen it all over the last 90+ years, and is a true gem that we can all learn a thing or two from. Much respect!
What a marvelous old chap ! He reminds me SO much of my late maternal grandfather, the father of twelve children, whom I used to hear speaking in almost exactly the same manner, holding court at the head of the dinner table,..born in 1915, I used to love listening to his huge reservoir of stories.
When he talked about the younger people with their mobiles and they've lost the mood to talk normal to each other .. he was so right.
It was done on purposes...
As a “younger person” (24), I completely agree. People around my age and younger, myself included, spend way to much time staring at a phone instead of conversing. Someone mentioned about going to a restaurant only to see a couple staring at their phones the whole time. Made me self conscious because I did the same thing to. Started being more conscious about it and now do my best to just put it away
When you tune in for the asmr but end up sat up right listening to the wisdom
My grand parents and parents have taught me well I always leave my phone in my room at dinner or put it away when at a restaurant I value conversation more than anything,I've learned so much from people like angel they are mentors to the young and their more valuable than any teacher
This is the American dream with people like this you can make America great again
This is what I call a true American! Just love him! Wish him health and a very long time doing what he loves to do. God bless him!1 second ago•1

Most would say he’s not shit because he’s Mexican and an immigrant most don’t know America was built into what it is all form immigration
Adrian Morales many Americans have no problems and love the Mexican people and immigrants. Some of the best in the world. Others dislike illegal immigrants.
Adrian Morales the problem is illegal immigrants bud. Nothing wrong with immigrants who came here legally to live out their American dream

This guy is why I wish I was born in the 70s. I get to grow up with the 80s, and people like him were an everyday thing.
I love that part. Nobody owes you anything. A lot of people need to get that through their thick skulls.
AMEN!!!!!
One thing I can tell you is to listen to this man. Listen to the “old people” because they will teach you so much about life. Their value is so great and to often it is overlooked. He makes me want to be a better person.
Sadly ... "listening to old people" and to "tales from decades ago" will get you called REGRESSIVE and worse these days, when it is simply "learning from the past".
I think a better way to look at this is to listen to those who deserve to be listened to. Just because someone’s old doesn’t all of a sudden give them all the good values and intentions in the world. Same goes for treating those with respect who deserve respect.
I very much enjoy listening to your wisdom of history. I also enjoy how effortless you make a perfect haircut and shave appear.
I talk to my daughters like adults, not children. Just as my family did for me. I was lucky to have grandparents from the depression who talked to me, and gave me this same wisdom you give your customers and viewers. My parents were of the same school of thought and work ethic. I thank you sir, very much.
