This man was forced to roam the streets in search of food.
Forty-five-year-old João Coelho Guimarães from Brazil found himself in a difficult situation. It so happened that he was left without a roof over his head, without work. And he was forced to roam the streets in search of food.
The man has been homeless for three years.
João often collected bottles to take to a container collection point and earn some money from it. Most of the bottles were in the barbershop area of the Brazilian country singer Alessandro Lobo.
One day, João walked into a barbershop and timidly asked if they had scissors or razors to shave off his beard.
Facial hair was a source of discomfort for the homeless. So he dreamed of getting rid of him.
Alessandro recalls that he was very surprised by the delicacy, shyness of the man, as well as his ability to express his thoughts.
It was evident that he was an educated man. Then the owner of the barbershop decided to give the homeless a generous gift: a day of beauty.
They cut Juan’s hair and styled it. The man immediately turned into another person.
With the permission of João Alessandro posted photos of the transformation on social networks.
Alessandro also gave João two pairs of trousers, three shirts and shoes.
Alessandro told the story of João and posted his photo on social networks. People began to leave enthusiastic comments about the man’s transformation.
However, among the comments, there was one that caught everyone’s attention. It turns out that the homeless man was identified by his relatives, namely his mother and sister.
They haven’t heard from João for ten years!
As it turned out, the mother and sister lived in another locality. When they learned that João was alive, they expressed a desire to come and pick him up.
Alessandro rushed to find the homeless man. It was not difficult, because after the release, he had already become a local star.
Mom and sister soon arrived. So the family reunion happened. And it’s all thanks to the power of the Internet.
