true where'd that come from i have no. idea man i feel like it's just the. hustle you think it's a hustler i think. it's the hustle yeah because because we. all come from like i guess immigrant. families yeah it's just like the grind. right exactly yeah but yo i don't know. like it's either you're in that and. you're in that fba type of you know what. i mean like like that. it's so stereotypical now yeah like all. filipinos play in the fba and become. barbers or or there's like a second side. to that barbary or is this a second side. like you're ukulele filipino ukulele. filipino you know those ones no what is. that you don't know ukulele filipinos.
the demands that sing and have those. like um the bruno mars hats oh. that that that's a whole other side. so it's like you got the jock filipinos. okay which play ball yeah i didn't end. up with barber yeah or you got you got. the like the singer ones oh yeah the. singer you feel me every filipino can. sing bro yeah i can't sing though can. you sing no i can't can you no i can't. see but for a long time i thought i. could you know when you have those those. filipino jams and then like you're. you're teaching lolas. oh word yeah wait what's your favorite. song.
i don't know it's a filipino song man. you know um you know that song my way my. my way all the all the tito sing it it's. like um my. way i think it's frank sinatra or some. [ __ ]. and he's any time you go to a filipino. jam and they're doing karaoke 100 one of. the lolos or tito's they're singing that. song so take this in so in the. philippines they actually call it like a. cursed song so any time it's sung the. chance of a murder increases by 60. percent what.
yeah so in the philippines right because. you know how they have all those like. karaoke bars and [ __ ] yeah so they did a. study like that they just studied any. time somebody sings that song for some. reason they always beef or there always. ends up being like a fight or a murder. because of that song someone sang that. song what bro. what the heck yeah i don't i don't know. why though because it might it might be. because that's everybody's favorite song. to sing and they're like nah you can't. sing it because i want to go that might. be what it is but for whatever reason. that song is supposedly like the cursed.
song. bro that's creepy right it's weird it's. weird story i've never heard of that. song bro. it's some next like frank sinatra song. i'm pretty sure yeah so you're born here. though right i was born in manila bro oh. you were born yeah i was one vanilla and. i came here when i was four you were. born here i was born here. well you don't have an accent though no. i can understand tagalog but i cannot. speak it yeah yeah that's me too that's. mean to you because um my dad is messiah. and my mom's side is tagalog so i always. gets mixed up so i don't i never learn.
yeah but that's a problem i think i. think all the other people here they. call us bacons yo you heard that you. heard that term bacons yeah yeah i don't. know like all the filipinos call those. bacons because they were born here or. i'm born here at least you're not yeah. yeah but that's what they call us oh. interesting so tell me your story found. like tell me how you found your tick. tock success well um i'm a 17 year old. barber right yeah so i started cutting. hair in grade nine and then i've been. coming here for about three and a half. years i just graduated high school oh. yeah so i graduated high school and i'm. turning 18 this year so i've been.
cutting here for about like four years. since i was like 14. yeah bro like i. it's a hustle right so grade nine i was. cutting hair out of my apartment yeah. and yo like i was cutting hair for like. five bucks where five bucks five bucks. but the only thing is that no one would. trust me with their hair when i first. started yeah i bought my first pair of. clippers there's a wall magic lips and. then after that um i would go around my. school asking my friends like yo like. come get a haircut from me yeah and then. i wouldn't be like nah nah nah like what. are you doing man you're gonna actually. start cutting hair i'm like yeah bro i'm. serious because it takes that it takes.
that first person to be like yeah i. trust him right because nobody wants to. like be the tested dummy exactly right. exactly so what i had to do is i had to. cut my own hair bro word yeah so i cut. my own hair and then after that i messed. my hair up so many times did you bro i'd. pull up to school and my hairline would. be crooked people would be like yo what. are you doing. i buzzed my head like bro i have like i. love my hair the curls and everything. but like i buzzed my head i tried giving. myself a fade and everyone just keep. dissing me and i was like so how did you. how did you end up learning like to cut.
hair though was it just youtube videos. was it like apprentice whatever yeah so. i looked up to the barber shop i work. work out right now so i worked on. platinum hair design yeah it was by. kipling like sure and those guys been. teaching me the ways so i would get my. hair cut before once a week so i'd show. him my progress i'd be like yo like this. is my haircut this is my haircut like. showing him pictures of like my own my. own hair trying to get like tips and. tricks yeah exactly they can give me. some tips i'd watch him how he would cut. my hair right so my first barber that. that was there his name was maul right. he's an arab guy and yeah.
yeah he made my hair really nice so then. i would go home after the after the cut. and i like the way he did it just like. learn from it right yeah i learned from. it and then um i finally ended up. getting one of my one of my friends to. come through after my hair started. looking better yeah after cutting it for. so long so after i got one of my friends. to come i murked his head man yeah. the lineup bro. it was cut like literal it was like. bleeding oh like the whole lineup yeah. yeah so i was like that was your first. time cutting my first time cutting oh. [ __ ] and then do you know the straight.
razor yeah yeah. bro as soon as i put the blade in like i. cut my thumb right away oh [ __ ] yeah so. bro like it was it's bad yeah i had to. go to school the next day and everyone. was like oh my god bro look at what he. did yeah. but that's what you got to learn from. right exactly because everybody starts. somewhere yeah so i learned from those. mistakes and i knew what i did wrong. right so then i fixed those and then. after i cut him um more people started. coming so some of his boys started. coming they gave me a shot yeah and i. still cut those guys till this day oh. that's good yeah so they really stuck.
with me so those guys are the ogs that's. some real [ __ ] yeah yeah and then after. that um i started progressing more and. then where was the point you're like. okay this is something i want to do as a. career because that's a big step right. yes because when you're in high school. that you're you were still young what. age were you when you first started like. your first cut yeah so my first haircut. was like when i was like 14. you're like. 14 huh yeah yeah bro so when you're at. that age you're like you're trying. everything right you're looking even at. your courses where am i gonna go what's. my future gonna be yeah so what was the. big kind of kicker for you to be like.
okay i want to cut hair yeah so. initially i actually wanted to be like a. dental hygienist where teeth and stuff i. love going to the dentist yeah yeah bro. i'd fall asleep when the death is. cleaned my teeth. but then when i wanted to start actually. taking barbering seriously was actually. last year bro oh yeah last year when i. started tic toc man so that's that's. when you graduated too right um or you. graduated this year just this year oh. last year. yeah when it was locked down the first. so so you're telling me the tick tock. success is what pushed you exactly when. bro adam wasn't taking barbering. seriously it was just like a side thing.
yeah and then once i started blowing up. on tick tock everything changed for me. damn after that like you've seen my. series cutting a millionaire yeah yeah. that's going crazy going to extravagant. homeless businesses and cutting their. owners. how did that start like how did you get. the first like millionaire cut yeah so. how i got the first millionaire was it's. just network yeah so no like i was. cutting um aaron van cameron you know. the guy who knocks on doors and asks you. what do you do for a living yeah yeah. i've been cutting his hair since before. he started tick tock oh even before that. so yeah he built a relationship and then. he started doing like tick tock and. stuff and then once he started doing.
those videos. he got me in touch with with with his. guys and his name is david defeld bro. he's a like a real estate lawyer yeah he. has money man and then um after that. like i cut his hair we made a video bro. that video hit 10 million views on. tickets. 10 million views that was the first one. yeah that was the first one that's crazy. yeah and then after that like i started. reaching out to more people i'm like yo. look at this i got 10 million views. that's my video too i started reaching. out to more and more guys you know north. face rally yeah yeah yeah yeah so. northwestern is like a super car club. gta those guys are sick they have like.
they're balling. yeah they're really nice cars bro so i. started reaching out to a bunch of those. guys and then after that i just kept. going on from there right so now they're. reaching out to me and everyone wants to. make a video with me yeah so so those. first few um barber takes those weren't. the first like tick tocks you were doing. at the time though right you're doing. like other tick tocks so the first tick. tocks um was i was kind of screwing. around yeah doing some of the trends. when it was like locked down back when i. was on like 5 thousand followers but. then once the barbershop opened up. after the first lockdown boom i started.
making haircut videos and then once i. noticed that people started coming in. more where then i was like yo like i. gotta keep making these videos man yeah. it was working because honestly tick. tock is a secret weapon it is because. people don't know that though it changed. his lives it changed my life changed. your life changed what gained charlie. demilio was like. bro like i was clowning tick tock yeah. me too me too i told my sister this. that's what i told my sister you'll. never see me on the app i told you that. i told you that like years ago i'm like. yo i'm never doing this tick-tock yeah. like dancing out it's not for me but.
it's not just dancing you show off your. creativity you show me who you are on. there exactly a great community man. because when it first came out we saw it. it's all like [ __ ] the jokes and [ __ ]. yeah no it was cringe honestly it was. cringe it was it was cringe and it still. kind of has that aesthetic you know it. has an aesthetic but it's it works. because everybody's on there and i think. what it was it was kind of like when. instagram first came out everybody's. instagram feed was white it was like. pictures of landscapes yeah pictures of. what they're eating right now what has. it became like streetwear it became like. fashion everybody's showing off their.
fit pics it's like a portfolio exactly. yeah instagram became facebook in a. sense so that's why tick tock is so. crazy because everybody's on there but. we don't know where it's going right. like it can change and we don't we don't. really understand everybody's on there. and there's so much success that can. come out of it as long as you post and. you never you never know when one tick. tock just might change your life exactly. just like just like that even instagram. reals too bro oh yeah instagram real. estate you post it on there yeah i'm. starting to it's not gonna pop off but. the thing is i don't know why like. whenever i post my my my clips on on.
instagram is different different. engagement i don't know why but you got. a lot of followers from that yeah you do. is it working for you um so far just. getting like 10 20 000 views on it but. like i'm aiming for the millions i got. anything to blow up like crazy. so what's it what's the next um creative. aspirations you're gonna do with your. videos now because you gotta you gotta. keep stepping up the game you know yeah. yeah yeah so bro like i was talking to. one of my clients bro yeah and we want. to make a video where where i cut his. hair and then we fly out to dubai and do. a scene there oh [ __ ].
yeah we want to do something crazy we. really want to step up the. level for the for this whole millionaire. cut series yeah you should yeah. literally fly all across the world and. i'm only i only have 24 parts in in the. series. and i still have more land up off my. sleeve man do that. do that and honestly vlog it too i will. just show your day in the life that's. what that's what i'm gonna do youtube. i'm gonna start youtube and then i'm. gonna show the day in life it's gonna be. like 10 minute videos of me driving to. these cribs showing like who these guys. are trying the cool stuff that they have. and just chilling yeah because.
what sells is is personal brand really. because people tune in to you not. because not just because of the content. itself but because of you your. personality what you project right so. what i see who who's the who's the. greatest influencer you think of today. the greatest influencer who do you think. because i have i will answer for it but. i want to know who you think like in. what category and i guess like social. media social media not not like music. not celebrities with just being an. influencer yeah who do you think in.
social media game how about you answer. that you asked okay i think this is what. i personally think yeah the goat of. social media is either ksi or logan paul. wait listen he's gonna say logan paul. bro listen a lot of people hate on logan. paul and [ __ ] i'm like that was me too i. i didn't like him before either but it. was a moment where i realized it was a. moment where i was put in the position. of doing his job right where i'm running. my own podcast i'm running my own. content and trying to branch off into. other things this guy he has he has. everything down he made sure every.
person that watches the videos. translates into a true fan because look. there's two types of fans there's a. casual and then there's a ride or die. right okay so the big thing is whenever. someone watches your content you want to. transform them into a ride or die fan. like a real supporter yeah no matter. what you do they're going to watch it. you can post a video about [ __ ] pokemon. cards and then they'll go watch it right. exactly so when you have those type of. fans it doesn't even matter whether you. have like 5 million if you have 5. million followers right but only 5 000.
of them are real fans you only really. have 5 000. yummy because what is a view. compared to a supporter yeah right. someone who can buy the products exactly. he's watching you mm-hmm yeah and that's. why logan paul's so smart because i know. you're doing this too. with your your own hair products right. yeah you want to talk a little bit about. that yeah sure so. what came up to you like i want to make. my own hair products too because that's. really smart yeah i love i love putting. products on my hair i like defining the. curls and just just like applying them. yeah and then i was sponsored before by.
a hair product i don't wanna say no. names but i was sponsored before by a. hair product and um they signed me on. they signed me onto like a good deal. yeah right and then i started promoting. their brand and i made their company. like five g's in the term of three. months back when i learned. back to when i only had like 500 000. followers yeah i posted only like two. videos. and then i made the company five grand. in three months two videos only when i. had five hundred thousand but now i have. three million it's crazy like what if i. make a video again yeah you know what i. mean they're profiting so much exactly. and they tried signing me on a.
three-year deal that's where they get. you bro exactly they try to sign me on a. yeah you do they see they seem like this. kid has potential so they signed they. tried to sign me on a three-year deal. and i was like can't do it yeah i was. like i'm going to make my own product. who gave you that idea was it you or was. it with someone yeah to make your own. yeah so um uh my name is. so sharon mcqueen he he's a real estate. developer yeah and he's a ceo of m5v. developments and he's the one he's like. yo jb you gotta start your own product. bro yeah i was like yeah i gotta do it. because bro if you're building this huge. brand right and you have those like i.
said before those ride or die fans. they're gonna buy the product because. they're true fans of you rather than. just you promoting something i mean. because look let's say let's say i have. a i have an ad on here yeah and i and i. promote something random right like. let's say a water bottle right they're. not going to vibe with it unless like i. promote it well and unless i show my. true heart in it right but what is. easier is to show your true heart in a. product you own yourself yeah you'll. work harder if it's yours exactly it's. natural too it's natural too and it. always it goes back to where you're.
building this brand and at the same time. you're building this brand you're. building your other brands yeah right so. let's say you have you have your content. you have your hair products you have. your vlogs each one holds a step in a. bigger pyramid right. it's it's it all comes together it's an. empire mm-hmm on fire so what's your. what's your goal in the end what do you. want to see i just want to i just want. to see some success man. what's success to you though what's. success to you because you can't just. say success you got to be you got to be. specific i wanna just take care of my. family i wanna be happy too bro i don't. come from money so just at home it's.
just me and my mom it's me and my mom. and um she works night shift. so she's sleeping during the day and i'm. hustling during the day so i really. wanna i really wanna get her out of that. and you know like it's our parents are. immigrants yeah my dad and my mom are. divorced my dad's in brampton and he's. just paying the mortgage so i just want. to be able to take care of my parents. and my family and then the rest just. want to create a legacy that's a good. ship bro that's good [ __ ]. yeah because that's really important. right because you really you really want. to make something not just for yourself. but for something that will last. generations i want to inspire a lot of.
people i get messages all the time like. because of you i started cutting hair. because of you i picked up my first. clippers and that means a lot to me yeah. bro because before i was looking up to. so many so many barbers and and now to. be an inspiration is it changes you know. yeah there's a lot of things who is that. person for you so there's uh i say like. the michael jordan of barbering right. now is vic blount yeah he's he's really. trending right now and he's doing really. well giving out the is he asian barber. no he's a he's a white guy that gives. out the haircuts in public oh that guy. yeah yeah so i always watch his videos.
is he from l.a or um i think he's from. atlanta. yeah so he's a really sick barber bro. and i've always looked up to the to the. owners that um that i work at the shop i. work at so paul and kyle those are the. owners that taught me how to cut hair. yeah if you weren't cutting hair what do. you think you'd be doing right now i'd. probably i'd probably be in school right. now man in school for what though what. though like did you have a plan even. before this i wanted to do dental yeah. oh yeah yeah my bad my bad i wanted to. be a dental hygienist yeah i'd be in. school for that right yeah because for. me bro it was weird well before i.
started this i had a i had a closing. brand right oh really. rico studios and that kind of popped off. on tick tock too that's where i got my. first initial following i got like 17k i. was i was selling out like hoodies. and socks within like minutes like five. minutes sold out the whole site i didn't. stop the thing is i didn't stop doing it. it's just i i lost time bro because when. i started the podcast yeah i can't take. everything with me so i have to put like. a back seat in one i see it and then. raise the other right because that's. what's hard is when you want to succeed.
in one aspect one one side got to take a. take a back seat yeah you can't do. everything at once you can't do. everything at once and there's a famous. quote if you want to be really really. good at something you have to put like. it has to be like 100 in one thing yeah. and that's what's tough right because. i'm the type of guy that wants to do. everything everything me too bro yeah. like i'm trying to have i'm trying to. have a tv show i'm trying to have. products yeah start youtube yo do it bro. yeah everything bro but it's tough. because when you're by yourself yeah. because you have a team with you it's.
just you it's just you right yeah it's. just me right now it's just me yeah see. it's tough bro because when you're by. yourself even just like advice you gotta. you gotta seek it out because when you. don't have that team with youtube like. okay what else can we work on okay i'm. gonna give you this stuff right you have. everything on your own and that's when. you gotta like that's when you really. have to make those decisions okay what. can i take on right without dropping you. know so have you ever had to make a big. decision like that before in your career. or just even just in your life yeah so. there was a big decision where should i. work with this very established product.
brand or should i make my own you know. i'm saying so working with this brand. could have opened up a lot of. opportunities for me so i could have. been the face of this product yeah it. could have been the face of it and it's. already established the park's already. there and they're they're great products. bro yeah and i had to make the decision. whether i should go with them be the. face of it or make my own and start from. scratch yeah so i made that decision to. make my own that's some work that's. smart you know you got to take that risk. risk to reward bro that's so important. bro because not only not a lot of people. take risks and that's when they miss out.
on that big opportunity yeah and i think. everything happens for a reason would. you agree i believe in that i believe in. timing because everything does happen. for a reason i believe in timing you. ever had a moment in your life like some. [ __ ] happened we're like yes yes bro yo. so i live right across the street from. maraba yeah and my boss he's like yo jb. you got me some lunch real quick. i was like ah i don't wanna i don't. wanna walk yeah yeah but then i was like. okay i'm gonna grab him some lunch. across the street rabba i see a mclaren. car outside the odds of a mclaren being. outside of rabba for me he's crazy but.
when i grab his lunch you know i mean. yeah so i saw i saw the guy in the. mclaren and i'm like hey bro this is who. i am that's what i do and boom i just. connected like that. and he was uh he was one of the. millionaires in your series no not yet. no not yet not yet oh but see that's. that's what it is too like just. connections like you have to if you see. something if you want you should. approach them talk to somebody just. approach them and be like hey this is. what i do okay is there any advice you. could give me. and that's it mine yeah. a lot of people are scared they're. nervous every time i see a nice car. outside you i i go i go to i go up to.
the car i go up to the owner. yeah that takes guts though. but my confidence built up over time as. i built my portfolio mm-hmm so like now. being on tv. i was featured on breakfast television. global news. blog to after that you know i have. something to carry around me yeah i show. them here that's who i am that's good. [ __ ] you know so. just build your way up there man so were. you always like that in school or did. you did you find your confidence out of. something yeah so were you shy kid or. were you like no no i was outgoing.
you're outgoing oh you know how i got my. name out there bro oh yo i cut hair in. the tim hortons wait you did yeah in the. tim hortons bathroom word i didn't know. that bro how i got the name jb always. fresh oh you know you know like it's. important yeah yeah yeah yeah always. fresh bro i cut hair in the mornings oh. [ __ ] before my name was just oh wait you. saw that on the on the cp-24. i just took that in yeah so i used to go. here in the timor's bathroom yeah and. then after that like how was that did. they kick you out yes did it yeah.
someone snitched on me oh i was like. this kid's cutting hand tomorrow and the. manager comes in. i'm giving the man a lineup and the. game's around he's sitting on the toilet. bro and they're like he's like hey what. are you doing. giving a man a lineup and then. after that like lunch was over and then. i said in class and then they said you. know the pa comes on give me a bustos oh. you got it i'm like yeah and then i i. knew what i was in for you know did you. get like suspended anything i did oh he. did he sent me home he sent me home and. then uh suspended me for like two days.
oh [ __ ] yeah and then um he called my. mom yeah yo my mom works night shift. right so she was asleep oh she's pissed. you see this mom like. it's okay. look where we got now yeah. we're on the podcast. so um yeah after that he called my mom. my mom was asleep she didn't pick up so. bro as soon as as soon as he sent me oh. my gosh home bro yeah go home as soon as. possible and i went on her phone. oh you deleted it. she still doesn't know till this day.
that's crazy she might see this so you. know like how she knows see you got it. that's where it all starts is just. making the dirt i mean you got to start. somewhere and if you're if you're. quote-unquote your only shop you can cut. hair is the the tim orton's and [ __ ] you. gotta take that chance you gotta do it. cause no way you're gonna realize you. know where you're gonna find out the. potential unless you take that first. step of what you have already yeah and i. mean like let's say let's say you want. to start a podcast a lot of people ask. me all the time like yo carlos how do i. start a podcast right my my best advice. to them is always just yo you have a.
phone right test it out yourself try. talking to yourself try making a podcast. just with your phone whatever you have. whatever you can afford because at the. end of the day it doesn't matter where. you start right and i think you will. agree with this you're going to get. better no matter what always right. there's always room for improvement bro. and the more you do it the more you get. better exactly like for example when you. you're talking about cutting people's. heads up. they're bleeding and then now they're. fresh exactly right crispy lineups only. always exactly mm-hmm but that's that's.
where all starts and a lot of people. they they're scared of that they're. scared of damn i don't want to take that. risk i don't know i don't know if i'm. ready for that leap yeah so what's your. advice for them to get out of that to. get out of that kind of mindset of where. oh i can't do it i don't know if i can. do it my advice would be just stay. focused. and if you really want to do it you have. to do it. right so don't care what other people. think. yeah because again like when i first. started people always say what are you. doing you can't come here like just stop.
just quit i didn't quit i see you have. to stay motivated. you got to remember why you want to. start and why you want to do it so just. tunnel vision brothers straight focus. yeah well was this your first like job. yeah i've never. had a job i've never put in a resume. yeah bro i always wanted to try working. on mcdonald's and see what's up. i never worked in nine to five ever yeah. me neither but you know like i want to i. wanted to see what it's like but you. know i think i'm good i think i'm good. still yeah just some just some people. it's just not for them yeah like.
i think a lot of successful people. especially you can see right away like. it's not meant for their their bones and. their body isn't built for nine to five. yeah you know what i realized too bro. most of these guys i've met they don't. really person they didn't really pursue. school and if they did go to school they. didn't use that knowledge yeah school. doesn't teach you how to make money bro. i preach all the time bro and it's it's. a very controversial topic too because. people are like nah you need it for like. the back up yo back up everyone. everybody says that [ __ ] i hate it.
yeah. you should just go to school for backup. bruh you know what i always tell them if. you set up a backup for yourself that. means you already failed because you. think you're gonna fail yeah right you. shouldn't have a backup if you're going. to something you gotta go full full. fledge yeah exactly. and you have to be confident full force. and confidence. would believe you can do it how was your. mom when you told her like y'all want to. do this at first like my parents was. pretty furious man yeah yeah she she she. was like like go to school what are you. doing.
but then after i started blowing up on. tick-tock. changes. do whatever you got to do and then yeah. yeah because um it's kind of that old. mindset especially with immigrant. families where i think especially. filipinos they hate traditional bro they. hate taking risks yeah yeah they're very. comfortable with their as long as. they're happy they're good as long as. there's food on the table and there's a. roof over their head they're good yeah. you know but that's why my mom brought. me here for a better life right so. that's i'm trying to make that life even. more better for her exactly bro cause i. always preach this like if if they.
took all those sacrifices to bring us. here and have these opportunities we. would be doing them a disservice by not. taking the opportunities to do this. exactly because we have the chance to. take that risk they didn't have a chance. to take that risk before yeah i mean. they didn't have tick-tock they didn't. have these platforms where we can blow. up off the internet wasn't the same it. wasn't it wasn't the same but now we. have these opportunities you have to. take them while you can yeah there was. no phones man exactly exactly no such. thing as [ __ ] social media before so.
everybody that wants to go out and try. you got to go try because this is the. time in your life you tried there's no. there's no better time than today but. again like you know social media is not. for everyone it is some people don't. like being in front of the camera you. know yeah yeah that's showtree but um. were you shy in front of the camera at. first or was it was it natural to you um. i was kind of just doing my own thing. you know i always had fun always having. fun. just i just happened to just be on. camera bro shooting videos. and i was just having fun that's it yo. take this in caution yeah i never i.
never even did like a demo run of this i. just like hopped on like okay let me try. it yeah i just did yeah. and it worked out bro yeah literally our. first episode boom that's it yeah it was. it was crazy. but a big part of it too is seeing the. market like where do i fit in the market. and how can i change it and where can i. where can i blow up off right what's. that viral moment to you so how did you. come up with the doing the millionaire. cuts how did you come up with that viral. idea so at first the name for the first. video that i ever made 10 million views.
was actually called cutting a rich. client that's what it was called cutting. average clients and then after that um i. made that video it just kind of went. with the flow you know what i mean like. it was a nice house nice cars it was my. first ever like very wealthy wealthy. high-end clientele like you haven't seen. the house like that exactly because i. usually cut like what was the house like. the kids what was the house it's a. custom home bro it's a custom home it's. something that you don't see like. architecture-wise yeah like like if you. go driving around like the neighborhood. like his you can take sticks out stands.
out where yeah that's that's kind of. whom i would want yeah right so so he. loves his home i'm sure he does and um. that's how he got the name was just uh. millionaire cuts really nice it's. something too you know yeah sounds right. cutting a millionaire. you know who where have you seen that. before yeah bro eventually i'm gonna be. cutting a billionaire yeah you will bro. you will manifest that [ __ ] eventually. i'll be cutting a billionaire are you. big into a manifestation always bro i. always told myself this is gonna happen. this is what's gonna happen see i'm.
telling y'all every single person i have. i have on the podcast that has success. it's all manifestation it works do you. write down what you your goals bro i. always write down my goals yeah all the. times accomplish them yeah. so you work towards that goal so i. actually have this ritual every time. every every year before new year's i. write a prediction and i say how many. followers i'm gonna get i say what's. gonna happen to everybody in the group. every single thing i said in that in. that group chat and that text message. happened every single every single time. i did it this happened for three years.
straight now you work towards it bro you. work towards it right towards it it's. all in the mindset though right because. did you always have that mindset or how. did you learn like i guess manifestation. how do you learn about it at first bro. honestly before i blew up on tik tok and. started meeting these guys these. millionaires i just wanted to open up a. shop i was just like yeah i'm gonna come. here monday to saturday and just open up. a shop maybe maybe open up a shop. and once i started meeting these guys. surrounding myself with positive people. my mindset changed. like i started now i'm gonna open up.
several shops. now i'm gonna have my own my own brands. yeah i'm gonna drive super nice cars. you know have a nice mansion so how. important is it for you to be around. those type of people because a lot of. people your age right because you're. young they they wouldn't know how to get. out there or meet these people what is. your advice to them my advice would be. don't be afraid so reach out to anyone. because having a mentor is very. important yeah knowledge is something. you can't put a price on that's bad.
but if you're not actually doing it. you're not actually taking the risk then. you're not going anywhere you take that. knowledge and you put it to work i. haven't even made it yet but i have a. game plan and i'm gonna execute that's. what's important yeah as long as you. have that and keep striving towards that. you'll make it exactly bro right like i. want to come back to this podcast like. like four or five years from now and now. i want to be celebrating with you bro. yeah right i mean i want to sell it. we'll be in a proper studio. but it's so dope because i love i love. to see like local creators come up yeah.
yeah i mean and i feel like right now a. lot of local creators it's kind of their. it's kind of their moment like we i. haven't i haven't heard of toronto. craters like that coming up like this. before right you just hear like a. one-two youtuber yeah but now i think. it's just tick-tock honestly i think. it's just tick-tock tick-tock is like. super hot right now bro yeah everybody's. blowing up off that [ __ ] like anybody. can go viral yeah that's the thing but. what are you gonna go viral for. you can have probably like a one-two. viral video but is it gonna stay like. that yeah you know what i mean like some.
people just make some people just post. something stupid and then it'll go viral. yeah but they can't do it again but they. can't capitalize on it you got to. capitalize on success and bring it. somewhere right yeah so yo um because. you funnel all of your attention from. tick tock to what to your instagram i. try to bro you don't want to follow me. on instagram i know i don't know why. because we have five mil on on tick tock. and then my instagram account's like 26k. i'm like what no way 26k yeah bro mine. is like like 3.1 22k you know what i.
mean yeah i don't know why why is it. like that what do you think honestly i. don't know and then i see all i see. these other six talkers like these lip. syncers you know yeah and then i look at. their account and they have two hundred. thousand but they have like they have. like eight hundred thousand on tick tock. but then two hundred thousand followers. on ig it's weird how it translates it's. weird how it translates yeah i don't. know so you always gotta like test and. and trial what what works best or what. what you can funnel the attention. towards right yeah because i notice a. lot of the attention funnels straight to. the youtube rather than instagram which. is good though.
i feel like you just have to post. content. you just have to post videos that people. want to watch like why am i going to. follow this guy on instagram exactly. yeah yeah um so. what are what are your plans with. content in the future you want to do. like youtube. yeah i'm going to start doing youtube. man i'm going to get i got to hop on it. so it's going to be more long-form. videos it's more like chill talk there's. a vlog showing the cool houses yeah yeah. going on a ride in the in the lambo. do you know him jeff woodick jeff. whitaker yeah yeah so he has his own. like youtube the barber the barber guy. you should do something like that bro.
yeah so for him his like his is like. sort of like it's kind of like a podcast. kind of like a podcast they talk to each. other. i'm keeping a low key man i might have a. tv show bro. yeah man. i had a vision the other day yeah right. so i've been manifesting this you know. have you ever watched icarly victorious. yeah. what if there's a show yeah where they. make like a day in the life of a high. school barber oh [ __ ] like my life a. filipino one too exactly so it shows. like the romance the drama. outside of the barber shop and then he. comes into the barber shop and deals.
with like different kinds of people. customers you know what i mean imagine. that being a sitcom show bro you'll put. me on that. that that'd be crazy you can like. feature like like artists feature like. yeah and be in toronto exactly exactly. because no one's ever done that nobody's. ever done that and especially because. look look you agree with me like any. time there's a there's a filipino in. mainstream media goes bananas it goes. crazy and i think it's because the. filipinos is so ride or die like look at. a pacquiao player everyone everyone like.
all filipinos mm-hmm they just look up. to pacquiao and there's a pacquiao fight. all the fam jokes everybody's. everybody's there everybody's there it. doesn't matter if like any news you hear. about him at all the filipinos are there. yeah and i feel like that's how it is. just look at olivia rodrigo even though. she's only half filipino yeah we're. claiming her. because you know filipino there's so. much pride and passion in the. philippines right if someone's. representing that flag yeah you know. everyone's gonna support it yeah where. do you think that stems from though. because i mean you grew up there so you.
kind of know where it's like i never. been i wonder if we're ever gonna be on. a filipino tv show bro yeah what if we. get invited to like gma i don't know i. don't know because i don't even speak to. god looks though because i always think. about that too i'm like yo do you think. do you think they scout us because right. well what's your what's your following. like on tick tock like your percentage. like countries yeah so it's like america. philippines like probably 25 philippines. why 25 yeah something like that yeah. mine mine's mine's a 10 philippines and. then it goes it goes u.s. philippines canada canada same for you.
yeah for me it's crazy see that's what. i'm saying like anything anybody felt. you know everybody just hops on just. just because it's one of us you know we. stay together yeah we stay together. which is dope because we don't i i don't. know do you do you see that a lot with. other cultures too kind of kind of but. filipinos is just like next level yeah. who's your favorite like filipino. created filipino creator um i remember i. used to watch this guy he has the same. last name his name is mikey bustos oh. yeah i know him. like those um parodies yeah songs. i think i was american idol i'm not too.
sure but yeah he's um everyone always. asks me if i'm related to him yeah but. i'm not but um yeah. would you ever want to go to philippines. and be on those shows though i would why. not yeah you know what i mean so you can. become philippine yeah how do we hit up. how do you hit them. i don't know honestly. because i mean you could be an actor in. their store i i can't speak to galileo. bro but oh true that's the only problem. yeah. that's the only problem. tv shows yeah. they don't even do english english out.
there like that right yeah like english. tv shows damn i guess you got to learn. bro it might be worth learning it's like. i i speak like taglish if you guys don't. know what taglish is it's like like. broken english and broken tagalog yeah. yeah like mixed what's your favorite. filipino food filipino food hmm you know. that like you know what cuda cut it is. yeah yeah. yeah yeah that peanut butter like oh. it's fire fire you ever had the ox steel. one oxtail no i have it so it's card. card but it's ox tail oh why are you so. good bro oh the beef one yeah or um one.
of my favorites all the time is adobo. bro. of course yeah of course bro that's like. that's like the spaghetti. it's the og so with you being from the. philippines have you ever heard any like. crazy ghost stories or paranormal. experiences bro yeah yeah when i went to. the philippines i was with uh my dad he. took it to davao was that so um it's. just a place in the philippines you know. i don't really know the. geography with it oh yeah places but it. took me a place called davao yeah so and. then we were walking around his hometown.
and he's he's like he passed me a piece. of garlic a piece of garlic yeah why or. i don't know if it's garlic or ginger. but he passed me something he's put in. your pocket i'm like oh you mean put in. my pocket. and then and then i'm okay i'll take. care whatever put in my pocket and then. he's like black magic. magic bro. he was telling me a story from when he. was a kid yeah like he got lost. and as i was after making eye contact. with the lady he got lost so he just. started walking he just started walking. and he didn't like realize anything so.
he was missing damn how did how did he. get home um the way he got home i think. like they were looking for him yeah and. one of the people in the community they. found him so he was put in like a trance. yeah something like that that's crazy. yeah you never know he's like don't look. at anyone don't make eye contact with. anyone that's what he told me um do you. believe in that black magic bro honestly. i do yeah honestly i think it's real bro. because even just um just i'm heavy into. spirituality too right just spirits in. general like ghost bro honest i think i.
think there's a certain. realm that we can see but can't access. because i look at it like this like look. at my dog right. we know what wi-fi is it's connections. for a phone right imagine trying to. explain wi-fi to your dog you're not. gonna get it right but wi-fi is a real. thing yeah so what if there's another. realm that's like wi-fi to us that we. wouldn't get because we're not on that. consciousness yeah right and then that's. like let's say the spiritual realm where. we see all of those ghosts and spirits. come out and maybe there's some truth to.
it right because you hear stories all. the time like do you have do you have. any other stories like that um other. stories have you ever been to a psychic. bro a psychic nah i never been i've. never been to psychic either bro but i. heard stories where it's like they can. really see the future yeah yeah like the. real there's fake ones and then there's. real ones if you go to the legit ones. bro. like i can't i personally can't go see a. psychic i don't know because um. are you catholic or christian yeah. catholic i'm catholic too so you know. how they say we're not allowed to we're. not allowed to do any of those um.
psychic readings oh he didn't know that. huh even astrology it said i think it's. in the ten commandments actually like. we're not supposed to. follow into any. yeah like satanic like yeah it's quote. unquote witchcraft it is it is it is you. know i mean it's quote unquote. witchcraft so that's the problem because. i do want to see what it's about yeah. but at the same time i don't know if i'm. allowed to. really i'm not going to do it i can't. but i hear stories which makes me want. to do it. because i'm scared bro at the same time. because i don't want to i don't want to.
mess it up my i don't want to mess up my. mojo yeah you don't want to think like. oh yeah this is going to happen i have. to avoid it yeah exactly because if your. life is going so well why would you want. to right. but there's the positive rituals you can. tell them hey i don't want to hear any. of this stuff don't tell me where they. could just tell you like oh yeah just. they'll tell you the positives what if. they're like yo but you might want to. hear this. you're like yo there might be some. something you gotta worry about you know. yeah then you're like caught up in like. ah [ __ ] you ever seen a ghost though you. ever seen like posts no never no not.
planning to though. because you know because i'm i'm doing. more um i did vlogs right yeah and i did. vlogs exploring like haunted places oh. exploring haunted places where did you. go so we went to this um i don't know if. you know about old finch road it's in. scarborough it's a school. no it's it's a bridge. so there's this bridge i did a whole. vlog on it y'all know so i already see. where this is coming. this is a bridge where a girl was taken. like a teenage girl in high school and.
what happened was she was kidnapped. taken under the bridge and they raped. her and killed her right on her birthday. so the oh i just got goosebumps. as soon as you said that goosebumps. shivered right down like oh [ __ ] bro. cause apparently this is a this is a. true story. like it's been said for so many years. already so the the rumor goes that if. you go down the bridge. really late at night and especially on. her birthday you're going to hear her. screaming bro i'm getting goosebumps.
every time i hear these kind of stories. it's like like oh my god and listen. listen like this stuff is real too you. know yeah. like i wouldn't not expect it if i if i. did. bridge on her birthday and so what. you're supposed to do you're supposed to. sing happy birthday to her and this is. what i did in the vlog she was saying. happy birthday to her and you might see. an appearance of her or you might hear. her talk to you and did you you guys got. to find out link in bio. but here's the thing bro because i. really wanna do all these explorations.
but i don't know if i'm gonna like bring. something home man. you gotta be careful man yeah i'm. getting goosebumps right now maybe i. gotta bring the garlic in my pocket or. something. i feel like just just bring lots of uh i. feel like you should just bring people. with you yeah energy like you know when. you're when you're with people it's like. um you feel more power yeah not alone. i mean so because i kind of had a theory. with that too is where all of these like. um paranormal experiences they always. happen in the middle of nowhere or when.
you're by yourself exactly right so i. feel you ever heard like the simulation. theory. what's that theory that we're all living. in a simulation like the matrix never. heard about that no no. so elon musk he thinks there's a 50 50. chance that we're living in a simulation. and when we die it was just all like a. video game type of thing oh my god so. this might not be true reality and the. outside world outside of this simulation. might just be something like devastating. and we're trying to escape that through.
a simulation so if you think about it. like this right um video games yeah in a. sense they're a simulation trying to. escape this world right the way life is. moving eventually we're going to get to. a point where we can simulate life with. vr would whatever bringing our brain. consciousness into a machine it's going. gonna be possible have you seen that. movie there's a movie about that where. they put their conscious into a robot oh. what movie is that. oh it's choppy yeah yeah i i never watch. it i heard of it yeah so no matter what.
because our our technology is advancing. and whether we like it or not we're. going to be able to do that and elon. musk said if it ever comes to a point. where we can that means we're already in. one that ass like we're already in one. oh my god so going back to like. paranormal [ __ ] right so what if any. time you see like a paranormal. experience or like a ghost quote-unquote. um apparition is because of like the. matrix glitching or some [ __ ] because if. you think about it look any any time any. time something glitches in the game is. where you're in like the the ends nobody.
really cares about and you're by. yourself where the simulation doesn't. have to work as hard i mean it doesn't. have to load everything up as fast but. when a lot of people are in one area. you're not going to see that type of. thing because the machine is working to. keep it running to to kind of account. for all those people there right wow. hey if you think about it. that's insane. that could be insane right yeah so i. don't know maybe maybe that's what it's. all about but you do believe in ghosts. though yeah i do i do like spirits.
souls yeah yeah well what do you think. happens after you die bro we all. can't really answer that question we. can't i don't know yeah i feel like the. truth is whatever our truth is yeah do. you think that what do you mean by. whatever our truth is like whatever. let's say what what if when we die is. whatever our heaven is becomes it. because everybody's different right. there's so many other religions and. nobody's wrong but there's so many other. religions but they connect in a way i. feel like they're told in a different. way yeah i think so yeah because we all. have very similar no we all have the.
afterlife yeah so it's very similar it's. just told differently different like. prophets and stuff yeah yeah growing up. were you were you very um religious i. used to go to church every sunday you. know so it stopped because you know the. whole lockdown pandemic. um in the philippines there's these. things i don't know if you know they're. called uh. there's like these charms do you know. what they're called they're like these. gold charms that supposedly give you. like powers you heard about it do i have. it. on like a necklace or you just hold on.
to it no it's like trinkets i think i. think if you just hold it in your pocket. or you can make it into a necklace it. kind of looks like your chain right now. like kind of like a little pendant like. that and then what kind of power does it. give you supposedly strength or it can. make you. see ghosts it can do all these different. things bro it's crazy i don't know. like a blessed material yeah something. like that something like that. i wouldn't want to hold that though no. no i wouldn't why not why not because i. just live the life how it is how how it.
is right now it's the present. go with the flow okay if you're given a. chance to like okay you want to fast. forward five years or go back five years. what would you do go back five years. with the same knowledge i have now. mm-hmm that would go back five years. with the same knowledge i have now yeah. i feel like i feel that well what if. what if you don't take the same steps. and your life changes. for the worst see that's the thing i. always look at life right like like you. said before yeah everything happens for. a reason and i always had this feeling. in my career i didn't know what i was.
gonna do but i knew i was gonna be. successful i didn't know what it was but. i already knew i was safe i wasn't. stressing about the future same as well. yeah me too bro i never stressed i was. never good in school either yeah me too. i was never good in school i fall asleep. in class all the time yeah. i fell asleep in class and i just told. myself like i think i'm gonna be good. yeah i don't know why i'm gonna be good. yeah it's just that feeling and i think. those moments where you doubt yourself. and where you think things are gonna go. wrong is when it happens yeah if you die. yourself it it will it will happen you.
tell yourself yeah i'm just gonna do. this it's gonna happen yeah it's so. crazy how that works it's like um you. know frequencies and vibrations yeah do. you believe in that yeah i saw sound. like a video where like sounds would. play and then it would show like a. certain formation where like there would. be like um like salt oh yeah i seen that. and then certain vibrations and stuff. would play and then it would set up a. formation it would create like a. triangle or like a square a circle it's. crazy it's crazy and you think about it. that's what happens with music right.
and when we listen to music we get a. react we get an emotion and it's almost. as if like it's a drug yeah right like. you can feel a sense of euphoria you can. feel a sense of adrenaline out of a song. like what's your favorite like gym track. you know i mean a gym track yeah like. something hype yeah something hard you. listen to something hype and all of a. sudden it boosts you yeah it boosts you. up so there's definitely something that. we don't understand with frequencies but. these music industries do right there's. something behind it maybe there's. something behind it it's the way it. sounds yeah it clicks emotions because.
it's so weird even just like language in. general we're just making sounds of. their mouth but we put meaning to it. yeah expression it's so weird right. because like look look at a dog talking. to another dog they're just barking it. sounds like barks but maybe they put. meaning to their barks but we wouldn't. understand it. it's crazy to think about stuff like. that right because um i always have this. theory that certain people in your life. they they give off a frequency that. makes you better and that's why it's so. important to have good people on your. team yeah would you agree i agree 100.
surround yourself with positive people. and then everything will be everything. will be great. do you think the moment right when you. met those i guess those people that. could guide you and kind of be better is. where your life took off yeah so i just. took their blueprint yeah i learned from. their mistakes they tell me the mistakes. they've made and apply it to to my life. so i don't make the same mistakes they. make yeah. who's your biggest mentor so my biggest. mentor would. there's so many mentors you know there's. a mentor for each thing you know yeah it.
could be a mentor about life mentor. about making money and talk about social. media you know so i can't really say. who's my biggest mentor you have you. have one for different things yeah. exactly that's important yeah it is very. important i learned from their mistakes. and i apply it to myself so then i get. there faster yeah again it doesn't. matter when you make it as long as. you're still breathing it's it's not as. long as you're still breathing it's not. too late yeah yeah that's true i believe. in that bro um do you play sports and. [ __ ] yeah bro i play basketball i play. basketball from grade nine to eleven and. the pandemic lockdown so i'm gonna play. for grade 12. oh wait yeah i'll fill.
penal sweet box because i seen you in. the k showtime video yeah yeah i didn't. play though yeah you should have played. with them still bro i told them like yo. let's make a video yeah let's do like. beat me in 1v1 i'll give you a haircut. oh that's sick yeah i should do that but. he probably stops me up i haven't played. ball in a minute bro you you played like. fba i played like um you played like rap. yeah i played uh fiba basketball like. filipino leagues and then um i played um. oba or yeah i never played ball i never. played basketball i played in in uh. elementary school but like just for just. for the school i was on basketball team.
i feel like you're like a music guy. do you do any music i play guitar. feeling you'd play guitar yeah yeah i. kind of got the like the vibe i don't. know why no but i was a swimmer i was a. swimmer actually swimmer like a. professional server like like like uh i. was a competitor somewhere competitor. yeah and then and then that's when i. became a yeah i became a lifeguard swim. instructor and then. i went into kickboxing well that's. that's like that's my bread and butter. and i was like boxing kickboxing boxing. yeah i used to say kickboxing i took it. for six months yeah i took kickboxing. because i got jumped bro where i got.
jumped by like 15 man nah are you. serious i was coming out of wonderland. bro and then yo i wasn't even wearing a. real by yourself yeah no i was with like. i was with my cousin yeah i was my. cousin two of my cousins and bro like i. was well you know wonderland you know. outside the plaza yeah like where the. plazas are where everyone gets food and. stuff so i went there and then um like. 15 guys oh [ __ ] like yo i knew they were. trouble bro so i kept walking yeah and. then after that they they ran up to me. they're like yo fam wait yeah and then. i'm like yo what do you want they're. like yo nice chain snatches are right. off my neck oh [ __ ] i'm like yo i'm that.
chain it was it wasn't real but it was. from my uncle yeah it had meaning to it. you know so i was in that i was put in. that situation what should i do. should i get the chain back or should i. just walk away would you do you said. they said run your bag run everything. that you have your shoes everything no i. was like damn like this never happened. to me before i was i think i was 15. and. then yo i was furious i was so mad i was. like i'm like i didn't care that was i. don't care that there was 15 guys so i. just i had to fend for myself bro you. fought them yeah i fought them i i just.
i went i just went straight to that guy. and i gave him a good like punch in the. face. yeah but my advice honestly is to no. matter what the situation is if someone. goes up to you and tries to take your. stuff and threatens you. just give it you don't know if they're. carrying a knife you don't know if. they're carrying a gun i couldn't i. could have died that day bro yeah you. know i mean that's so true worth it your. life is not worth anything that's. materialistic just give everything that. you have you know what i mean. and you got to be smart with it because. yeah if you're outnumbered you got to. know that right so that also humbled. myself too. it taught me to be more aware of my. surroundings be more aware of where i'm.
going you know because i was walking i. was walking tall thinking i'm the [ __ ]. before yeah but then so it was kind of. like a lesson it was a lesson learned. yeah i mean so yeah damn that's crazy. where'd you end up doing like kickboxing. though um i ended up doing at this place. in mississauga yeah and then i was just. kickboxing and it was more for like. fitness and like learn self-defense oh. you know you never like went in. competition no i'm not really like. fighting anyone but i was like the. fundamentals of boxing yeah yeah it's i. think it's it's really good like. everybody in their life should learn a.
little bit yeah at one point yeah you. know because you never know when you. need to bust that [ __ ] up exactly i. avoid violence at all times. you know i'm very cool i'm a cool guy. i'm usually the guy who would uh calm. people down yeah communication and what. i think it is those people that do know. how to fight everybody i know that i. trained with whenever they're in a. situation like that they try not to. fight because they know they can hurt. them exactly and it's kind of like a. mutual respect especially in the gym. where you know there's somebody that. could be better than you right and i. think those people that do go looking.
for fights are the people that don't. know how they don't know how to fight. yeah because if you knew how to fight. and you trained with fighters and you. spotted them you know what i mean you've. seen what it's like [ __ ] you know. there's people that can [ __ ] you up yeah. bro like you know there's some people. out there that can [ __ ] you up of course. so that's why it's so important like you. gotta you gotta prepare yourself no. matter what situation comes at hand yeah. right so i think i did um i did i did. boxing kickboxing for like almost eight. years now yeah so. and i did competitions and [ __ ] though.
so that that's kind of like what drove. me to do that that was my drive for it. right uh what's what do you think your. drive is for just cutting hair my drive. for cutting hair it's just the passion. yeah passion anything you do with. passion like you love kickboxing you. love doing it so you keep doing it you. know like it's it's like it's not a job. for you it's just get down to the. details though like what what's that. feeling of like is it is it giving them. a sense of confidence is it like yes so. that's the thing bro it's like after. that haircut that i give them yeah that. smile that piece of confidence that i'm. able to give them is what gets me going.
this is the drive. you know it's um that's one of the big. reasons why i started barbering because. i wanted to make people feel confident. yeah yeah that's something like the way. like the way i felt when i first got my. haircut i felt super confident i don't. want to make other people feel that way. too yeah that's real [ __ ] you ever get. like a really shitty haircut going on. yeah yeah i told him i love my long hair. i love the curls and um i remember i. told this guy just give me a little trim. and just buzz it right down the middle. yeah and i was like devastated i was. like bro well you did that on purpose or. like yo i don't even know it was back. when i was in eighth grade but he just.
it's those moments that you will never. forget that's good a bad haircut yeah is. a moment that no one will forget yo give. them some tips and tricks like what. would you do if you had a bad haircut yo. if you have a bad haircut just don't pay. for it let the barber know be like yo. like you're doing me dirty you're not. you're not cutting my hair right because. you're going to do it again to somebody. else. you know what i mean so that's that's. true so you gotta a lot of barbers. nowadays like like they're losing the. passion you're losing the passion. they're they don't care you know you're. dealing with a customer you're dealing. with another human being yeah you know. what i mean so it's it's their look it's.
their head you know barbers are supposed. to take care of people yeah yeah so. that's what we're trying to do do you. ever have to deal with like somebody. that didn't like their cut or not um. when i first started cutting hair oh. yeah yes when i first started cutting. hair people would just be like extremely. picky and be like one guy hold on once i. cut his hair once i finished cutting his. hair he told another barber to fix it. on my train he's like yo can you fix. this i'm like bro seriously yeah. but you know like again don't let that. bring you down yeah mm-hmm don't i did. not let that bring me down i just got i.
just kept going i was like okay next. time i know that's good because a lot of. barbers they get very devastated and. they just like you count i'm gonna quit. yeah yeah let me tell you this part. where like when i first started cutting. hair i would work from monday to. saturday and um after school i'd be. there a football practice and then i'd. put in four or five hours but i'd walk. out at the end of the week with less. than two hundred dollars imagine putting. all this time and you're only walking. out the end of the week with less than. two hundred bucks i could have walked. the i could have worked like a regular. job. yeah. and then make more yeah i just loved it. so much it's just passion the passion. drew me into it i love being in the.
barber shop and then now look at it 200. bucks a cut it's different now yeah so. it's just through time this is only in. the span of three and a half years. that's crazy. yeah that's good [ __ ] because i think as. long as you have a dream and you protect. it that will come to fruition no matter. what 200 bro it's as long as you put. your head down work i know okay this is. where i want to be at you'll get there. right all right we're running out of. time but i want to ask you one last. question so what is jameel's message to. the world what does he want to tell the. youth what does he want to see a change. what is his message my message to the.
