What a wonderful gesture! I'm sure if you are reading this, then you know the feeling of having a haircut or colour session? I literally feel like a better version of myself, revitalised.
This may seem like a small gesture, but I'm sure the impact is great. Over and above the fact that these men are having time spent on them, this act is more than just a cut. It's a self-worth affirmation, an echo of 'you can do this', 'you got this', and 'you can'.
A random act of kindness is such a powerful thing. I truly hope that it inspires you to go out and do your bit of good in the world today.
