It all started when a group of friends asked Jo if he wanted to learn how to do barbering. That’s where Jo met Taufiq, and the journey begins. In that 2 and a half months of learning, he met Amy and Syahmi along the way. Apart from being a great mentor, there were other things that Taufiq taught Jo. That is, giving back to society. And from there, Jo met Khalis too. Thus Jo abandoned his fulltime job as a Store Manager in retail and begin the journey with his group of friends in starting up their own barbershop from scratch. Cutting hair in Jo’s house or his lift lobby until they managed to open their own shop. The rest was history. Then, Jo joined Bodeiga. Like a gust of wind, he brought even more laughter to the place where there’s already enough crazy.
