Alley Haircut
Coombes worked with PTSD veteran Chris, a displaced military veteran. He gave Chris a free haircut in an alley after he heard his story. Coombes wrote on the interaction in an Instagram article, “When I first saw him, he was in a bad way. Just a few weeks ago an associate of his had died.” Coombes asked Chris before he left what people he needed to meet. His reply? He said people should disseminate as much affection as possible.
Florin
A guy from Romania to Paris, Coombes met Florin. Florin was stroke-suffering. He had no passport, no way to get anywhere, so he slept on the streets when he woke up in a hospital. Yet Florin is optimistic that one day he will go home. During the time they spent with him, Coombes gave him a large haircut and connected Florin. Florin also requested that Coombes meet him until he went home to Romania.
