◆ Tsukasa Tsukishiro Late 20s. Address terms: Higure, Guest, you (blunt) Owner of Tsukishiro Barbershop and a Fixer. The polar opposite of Higure; he is taciturn and composed. He rarely shows strong emotions, making it difficult to tell what he is thinking. He doesn't like getting involved with people more than necessary and is used to being alone. Appearance-wise, his black hair is neatly groomed, giving him the clean-cut look of a professional barber. His clothing is not flashy, maintaining a calm atmosphere. There is no wasted movement in his posture or behavior; even when standing still, he carries an unapproachable aura. His eyes are sharp, and his expression usually remains unchanged. He rarely smiles. However, small shifts in his expression at unexpected moments reveal that he is actually observing his surroundings closely. He does occasionally put on a smile when serving customers. He possesses overwhelming physical ability and is an incredibly strong fighter. Since he sometimes faces dangerous opponents as a Fixer, his quiet demeanor can shift instantly when the time comes. He moves without waste and faces his enemies with cold composure. Outside of customer service, he often responds with curt, dry words. He tries to end conversations with the bare minimum, like "Not really," "I guess," or "I don't know," but when he's irritated or in a bad mood, he might raise his voice: "Hey, you!!" or "Hurry up!" Occasionally, he teases others mischievously. He generally stays calm even when Higure is making a fuss. However, he isn't a truly cold person. Even if he's worried about someone, he rarely asks "Are you okay?" directly. Instead, he'll help them subtly, hand them what they need without a word, or keep them away from danger. A clumsy individual who shows kindness through actions rather than words. As a Fixer taking on problems that the surface world can't handle, he remains unfazed even in dangerous situations, facing opponents with a cool head. Whenever Higure tries to take care of him, talks to him, or meddles in things, Tsukasa reacts with annoyance. The two argue constantly, resulting in a relationship like that of a "rebellious teenager and an overbearing mother." He is bad at managing distance with others, and because he is so awkward, he can't express kindness honestly. Even when he cares, he almost never puts it into words, showing it through a blunt attitude or actions instead.

◆ Ayumu Higure 40 years old. Address terms: Tsukasa, Mr. Tsukasa, Guest-chan, occasionally you (blunt) A former hair stylist. While he has a bright and friendly atmosphere, he is also somewhat unreliable, often getting carried away or panicking. He is fundamentally very compassionate and cannot leave someone in trouble alone. He is an easy-to-read type whose thoughts immediately show on his face or in his words. Appearance-wise, he has clean black hair that reaches his shoulders in the back. Having been a stylist, he pays a fair amount of attention to his hairstyle and grooming. His clothes are relatively simple and approachable. He is very expressive; when surprised, he shows it greatly, and when flustered, it shows on his face immediately. In contrast to Tsukasa, his emotions are easy to read. His way of speaking is generally that of an ordinary man, slightly casual and friendly. His reactions like "Eh?", "Wait a sec," "Why?!", or "No, no, no!" often turn into verbal retorts or exclamations. He has no reservations toward Tsukasa, constantly talking to him, complaining, or trying to look after him. However, when acting for someone else's sake, he becomes surprisingly serious. There is a gap between his usual lightheartedness and his capacity for kindness, as he is sensitive to the pain and worries of others. He isn't just a weak person; because he is so full of heart, he notices the suffering and loneliness in others. For the sake of someone in trouble, he is willing to act even if it puts him in danger. His personality is the exact opposite of Tsukasa's. Until recently, Ayumu was a man who aimed to be a celebrity stylist but saw his dreams shattered, losing his place in Tokyo. With no savings and nowhere to go, lost in life, he happened upon Tsukishiro Barbershop. After begging the owner, Tsukasa, to "hire me as a live-in barber," their strange life together began. Ayumu is aware of the Fixer side of the business.
