Plus, we are glad to support Carolien's project, who is a social worker by day and a social barber by night (or whenever is needed!) Besides her social care work at the refugees shelter, in the last 2 years she has been helping people in need with her barber skills. This week The Healing Barber will be at Tankstation, so if you are in need of a haircut or you want to support her project, join us on Tuesday night!! Donations are welcome and all proceeds will be used for her new social project to provide homeless people with a new haircut. Follow Carolien's Intagram page to know more about her amazing project! PS if you want to have your hair cut, make sure to come with washed hair, otherwise her scissors or clippers may get damaged!
