The emergence of social media has brought some flex and finesse to many professions that hitherto did not have the prestige and reverence they now enjoy.
The job is now highly regarded because social media has given them the platform to market their craft while portraying that being a barber can pay as good as some of the best jobs in the world.
Some barbers are now even classified as celebrities because they work with some of the well-known personalities in various sectors of life and their huge following on social media particularly Instagram also put them in the spotlight.
Today we put the spotlight on ‘Rabi the Barber’, the Tunisian celebrity barber who has worked with some of the top football stars and celebs in the world, and recently Rabi did the haircut for all the Moroccan football stars.
Known in real life as Rabi Sfaxi, operates in a barbering shop in Dubai, namely ‘Beats & Cuts salon’ and he’s a also a brand ambassador of the renowned clippers’ brand known as ‘Wahl Clippers’.
