SPRINGBOK Barber Shop in Alberton, along with company and independent sponsors are doing their bit to help pensioners in need.
“The idea came to me when I was cutting a disabled man’s hair and another customer asked me if I charge the man the same amount for a haircut as anyone else; I replied yes and he said he wanted to pay for the man. From there, I thought it would be nice to get sponsors who would like to sponsor haircuts for pensioners in need,” says owner of the Barber Shop, Johan Reed.
“I have already received a lot of interest from people who would like to help, and things are already happening, so any pensioners who are a bit down on their luck can come in and get a free haircut,” added Reed.
Springbok Barber Shop is situated at 44 Van Riebeeck Avenue, opposite Die Blou Meul.
