Hard life: The man’s hair and beard are long, and have apparently gone unstyled for some time. He also has a tired, beaten down look
‘From being Homeless to a Model in 1 Minute,’ reads the caption.
The clip begins with the unidentified man sitting outside under some sort of awning, with a barber getting to work on his messy mane and facial hair while another man feeds him.
The man’s hair and beard are long, and have apparently gone unstyled for some time. He also has a tired, beaten down look.
First, the barber cuts his hair, trimming it close and using an electric shaver to perfect the edges.
He then uses the shaver to take off the man’s entire beard and mustache, which haven’t been groomed in a while.

Wow! The video quickly cuts to the ‘after’ shot, with the man’s physical transformation nearly complete
The video quickly cuts to the ‘after’ shot, with the man’s physical transformation nearly complete. His hair has been cut, styled, and gelled into an attractive ‘do, his face is clean-shaven, and he is even sporting a slight smile.
‘Wow, there’s a face in there,’ a woman’s voice can be heard saying.
The man then grins in ernest, enjoying the compliment — and possibly realizing he looks more like himself again.
Another man who is helping to do a final trim on his face tells him he is a ‘good looking dude’ — and urges him to get off drugs and get off the street.
Needs some help: The man says that he is 30 and addicted to crystal meth
Offering a hand: One of the barbers says that he will take the man to meetings to help clean his life up
‘Show up for your life, bro. It’s not too late. How old are you?’ the man off-camera asks.
When the man getting a haircut says he is just 30, the other man replies that he was 34 when he got his own life together.
‘I had nothing. I had warrants for my arrest, bad credit. I was 130 lbs., hooked on crack. And these last 15 years, I got married, got those two little kids right there,’ he says.
When the homeless man says that he’s addicted to meth, the other promises that when he is ready, he’d take him to meetings to help him with his addiction.
The hopeful video has gone viral since it was posted four days ago, being viewed 17.4 million times.
