In a bid to spread some cheer this festive season, one man decided to give free haircuts to residents in Katong.
Aidan James Loo shared the process in a video posted to TikTok on Christmas Eve (Dec 24), which has garnered over 231,000 views and 15,800 likes to date.
He laid a white tarp and placed a plastic chair at the void deck of an HDB block along Haig Road, giving nine residents haircuts in around 1.5 hours.
The first “customer”, an elderly man, seemed afraid of the clippers Aidan was using but settled down once he switched to regular scissors. The uncle walked away with a smile on his face.
In fact, many residents were beaming with joy after seeing their refreshed hairstyles, with some offering the barber blessings and well-wishes for the festive season, and others hugging him to express their gratitude.
@aidanjloo Thankful for the gift of being able to give 🎄 Merry Christmas yall! 😍 #francescosbarberclub #freehaircuts #sgtiktok #singapore ♬ Can’t Get By Without You – The Real Thing
The video ended with him hugging and waving goodbye to the residents at the void deck.
