Bardy BarberShop launches Vietnam\u2019s first mobile barbershop<\/span><\/h2>\n
\n

Following the government’s Directive 19 <\/a>allowing business activities to resume, different businesses across the country have reopened, including barbershops<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/em>After a long pause in operations, businesses are now expected to go all out to earn as much income as they can to make up for the previous losses due to COVID-19.<\/p>\n

Bardy BarberShop<\/a>, on the other hand, is going against the current by providing free haircuts <\/strong>to the poor and disadvantaged communities.<\/p>\n

Bardy BarberShop<\/strong> is a Saigon-based barber brand with 5 branches in District 12, Go Vap District, Tan Phu District, District 5, and District 10.<\/p>\n

Known for its fresh-looking haircuts and highly skilled staff<\/strong>, the shop is crowded all week. It\u2019s also frequented by local celebrities such as actor L\u00ea D\u01b0\u01a1ng B\u1ea3o L\u00e2m and comedian Minh \u0110\u1ee9c.<\/p>\n

Not satisfied with the achievements it has earned over the years, the shop management has decided to pay it forward<\/strong> by using their skills to help as many disadvantaged people as they can. And the only way to do so effectively is to use a mobile vehicle <\/strong>such as its truck, so they can travel to remote areas and offer free barber services to the poor.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Fitted in the back of a truck, Bardy Barbershop is well-furnished with air-conditioning, environmentally friendly lighting, and enough space for 2 customers and 2 barbers<\/strong> at any one point in time. It\u2019s also designed with glass doors so it doesn\u2019t feel claustrophobic.<\/p>\n

Those who live in the area can hit up the truck for a haircut and pay as they wish <\/strong>if they can afford the service. Those who can\u2019t will be treated to the same quality of cuts and shaves, free of charge.<\/strong><\/p>\n

Furthermore, all of the money raised from barber service on the truck will be donated to the poor.<\/strong><\/p>\n
