Short Back & Sidewalks Offer Free Haircuts To Those Less Fortunate

Ta-ku and Craig Hollywood are putting Westons barber shop to awesome use..

Many of us take going down to get a fresh cut for granted, although sometimes fucking expensive, and as such there's a whole segment of the community that can't afford something so simple as a trim. And while it does sound simple, sometimes beauty is found in simplicity. Perth producer Ta-ku (recently celebrating the release of his new EP) has combined forces with RTRFM 92.1's Full Frequency host and house/techno DJ Craig Hollywood to create Short Back & Sidewalks, combining with Westons Barbershop to offer free haircuts for those who can't afford it. Free of charge. Free of judgement.

You can check out a video below, head to the WEBSITE for more info and some stories behind some of the people who got their hair did, and follow Short Back & Sidewalks on INSTAGRAM. There's nothing else to report here, this is just bloody awesome. Kudos to all involved, including website lords Juicebox Creative, who also gave us a huge helping hand in getting this bad boy sorted.
