Where can I get an American-style haircut in Beirut?

My question might be a bit confusing but I have really long hair and after research, I found that "middle part flow" haircut suits best for my face and looks, but I can't find any barbers in Beirut that offer these American-style haircuts. Does anyone know any barber shops in Beirut that knows how to do these haircuts and maybe your experience with them? Thank you

New Government on the Way: Final Draft Expected Within Hours‼️🇱🇧

Sources familiar with the government formation process told LBCI:

The government lineup is nearing its final stages, and the designated prime minister is working on resolving two remaining points before presenting the final draft to the President within the coming hours.

Allah ystor but I don't feel good. I feel like he's gonna pull up with a Mikati style Government.

Can we agree that a man2oushi out of a brown paper bag just hits different? Keeps it from getting soggy and also more eco friendly.

Is it safe to park car in airport parking for a week?

Travelling with immediate family on a flight that leaves at odd times. I don't want to take a taxi or uber and don't want to bother extended family to drop us off and pick us up. Just wondering if anyone has parked their car for a week at the airport car park. I know they have an underground level where the rentals are kept, I'd rather keep it there. Thoughts?

Strict US warnings to Salam and threats of sanctions: Trump administration will not tolerate a government that includes Hezbollah or its allies

American sources familiar with Middle East affairs in the Trump administration reported that Washington is closely following the process of forming the Lebanese government. These sources indicated that the US administration issued a clear warning to the Prime Minister-designate, Nawaf Salam, stating that the era of the Biden administration, which was characterized by American leftist tendencies, is over, and that the Trump administration will not tolerate any government that includes representatives of Hezbollah or the Shiite duo, even if it is through indirect or “disguised” figures, such as Yassin Jaber.

The sources confirmed that the Trump administration will not tolerate any challenge to its policies, threatening to impose strict US sanctions on the government and its members, most notably the Prime Minister-designate himself. They also warned that any violation of this warning will lead to wasting the last opportunity to save Lebanon economically, which could deepen its financial crisis and increase its international isolation.

Shein ordering. Page vs on your own

I just noticed the ar. Shein website has way cheaper price compared to the same cart on the app. Like 40 dollar difference for a 200 dollar order.

So what happens if I order. How do i pay customs. Where do I go and what do I expect. I'm pretty sure it's cheaper than paying for the page because they follow the app price not the website.

So if I pay do I need to go to the port to pay for customs? How does it happen. And is it more expensive than the pages or not.

Why wouldn’t he buried in his hometown?

I’m curious as to why he would not be buried in his hometown?
Instead, in a “plot of land” he’ll be buried, around of the old/new Beirut airport road(s).

Should we bring back death sentence?

Regarding all the unleashed unacceptable crimes that we faced these last months and years in Lebanon, do you think we should consider the establishment of the death sentence again? Our country is a zoo, people are animals and no one gives a f about laws anymore, no one is afraid of committing crime and i think it's due to the lack of examplarity that from my pov can easily be given by death sentence. Bi kafe e3dem wa7ad la te2teni3 el nes.

What do you think?
