Estilista cambia el look de los vagabundos ¡por una noble causa!

Con la finalidad de convencerlos para rehacer su vida y salir adelante, un joven de 26 años se dedica a recorrer las calles de Australia en busca de personas sin hogar y les realiza todo un cambio de lookque los hace recuperar su autoestima.
Es así como el estilista Nasir Sobhani encarnó al’Barbero Callejero’, quien con el paso del tiempo se ha convertido en amigo de decenas de personas en situación de calle, y aunque en teoría lo que les hace falta es dinero y no un corte de cabello, el nuevo look sirve como soporte emocional que les brinda esperanza.
Justo como a Graham, un vagabundo con problemas de epilepsia, quien tras el corte de cabello se siente integrado en una sociedad que repele a las personas de bajos recursos.
O qué tal Mark, un joven que abandonó la casa de sus padres y ahora encontró enNasir, un amigo en la vida.
También, la convicción del ‘Barbero Callejero’ y sus colaboradores impactaron positivamente a Rachel, una indigente, que ahora tiene el sueño de ser estilista y abandonar la calle.
Las buenas acciones nunca son suficientes en este mundo…

This is Mark. He’s 28 years old. He hasn’t had contact with his family for nearly a decade. I’ve known of Mark for a while now and would show him love everytime I bumped into him, and he would reciprocate with so much joy. You could tell he just wanted someone to talk to. Today when I saw him on the street, I asked if he’d be interested in a cut. His eyes lit up as he said “Ya man, I haven’t had a chance to get groomed in 8 or 9 months.” He told me he’d been homeless for 3 years. He said it wasn’t drugs which led him to the streets - that although he uses both heroin and meth occasionally, he does so more for social reasons, so he can ‘fit in’ and feel like he has friends. He got kicked out of his accommodation 3 years ago and hasn’t been able to land a proper job or home since. He suffers from mental illness too - “I’m really depressed and hear voices in my head, Nas” - he told me, and that’s another reason why he’s on the streets. He has no support system and doesn’t really have friends. He is lonely and just wants people to show him love and accept him. He said he often thinks about reconnecting with his family, especially during Christmas and New Years when he’s alone. Listening to his story I just felt sick to my stomach at how neglected he felt. He has no support system, no friends and no family to support him. He actually didn’t even have proper clothes on! His jeans were ripped and falling off his waist. He had no underwear on, and his shirt was also ripped and dirty. I had to go the full 9 yards on the brother! I went and bought him a new outfit and really took my time grooming him - with a cut, beard trim, dry shampoo, aftershave, and style. Looking at him afterwards I was quite taken aback myself and told him “Mark, you look so good bro” and he responded with “I know, and I feel GREAT!”. That response made me so happy and I just took his hand and said “I hope you realize you’ve made a friend for life now.. see you around soon.” I love this guy - his sincerity and open heart. Thanks for opening my eyes, Mark. Bless. #cleancutcleanstart #thestreetsbarber #thestreetsbarberproject

Lawrence. 37 years old and addicted to heroin. When I asked him to tell me some advice I could apply to my life he responed with “don’t try and be someone you’re not and respect your parents”. This was his first proper cut in 9 years #cleancutcleanstart #thestreetsbarber #juniorlion

This is John aka Aush. He’s 56 years old. He walked by as I was cutting a few people and when I offered him a makeover he responded with “yes please” right away. He’s a great guy, but definitely didn’t have it easy for most his life. He didn’t have a family to rely on. His parents are dead and the relationship with his siblings doesn’t exist- they refuse to talk to him. He’s been on heroin for almost 3 decades and in and out of jail since he was a youth. His heroin addiction was severe and he actually kept dozing off from being so high from the hit of heroin he had recently taken before we crossed paths. When he would wake up and become coherent I asked him what he’s learnt so far in life and any advice he would be keen to give kids. He responded with “respect your parents, love your family with all your heart, strive for knowledge and an education” then ended with (and when he said this it gave me goosebumps) “stay away from drugs...it’s not worth it”. #cleancutcleanstart #juniorlion #thestreetsbarber

Estilista cambia el look de los vagabundos ¡por una noble causa!

El 'Barbero Callejero' es más que un estilista, es un amigo de los más necesitados.
