Bodeiga’s Philosophy
Even if the roles of a barber and barbershops are simplified in this day and age, they are likely to perform one key function, that of lending a patient ear to their customers. From listening to gossips, sharing life stories stories and giving advices, barbershops are a social club for men. Our social responsibility envelopment revolves around our 3 angles. Create, Connect and Community. Which is to create opportunities and connect to the community.
