Even though there is a war in the country people still want to take care of their hair as everywhere else in the world.
Naturally, comes the question “Doesn’t the war make it harder to work in Syria?” to us who only hear about terrible things happening in the country but people like him still stand by their profession with both ambition and motivation as his answer shows:
“Yes, it makes this more difficult, but my willpower and my love for this profession override everything, and I have a dream to be outstanding and the best in my profession”
When asked the question: “What’s the hardest part of your job?” he once again gave a pretty positive answer: “There is nothing difficult as long as there is love and focus on work,” which he both surely has for hairdressing.
He said the salon was opened to support fashion.
When talking about fashion we probably think about hair-dying and hair colour, out of which the most popular once again seems to be the same in most countries. Blond. Just like in America or any country in Europe blond is the most requested colour for women in Syria too.
When we talk with a hairdresser the question most of us want to know the answer to is what we can do with our hair at home and what should we get done in the salon. Unfortunately to those who much rather apply hair dye at home, he asked us not to do this. He also stated that we should not cut our hair at home but according to him, we can always use creams and hair masks at home. He also says if we want an easy yet beautiful style, we can do a simple braid or some other easier styling, which we find attractive on ourselves.
