Young Greek Opens Popular Barber Shop in Germany

frankfurt-barberA young Greek professional hairdresser and self-taught barber, fulfilled his dreams five months ago when he opened his own barbershop in Frankfurt, Germany.

The 26-year-old Alex Vellios has had a great deal of success since opening his “Torrento” barbershop, with regular and new customers visiting each day, while sometimes they even have to book their visit up to four weeks in advance.

His popularity has grown significantly over the last months and he was even visited by Reuters’ photographer Kai Pfaffenbach. Alex was inspired to start this line of work from the memories he had with his grandfather. When he was little his grandfather would bring him along when visiting the local barbershop in Greece.

Alex always dreamed of owning a traditional barbershop and made it a reality a few months back when he opened the successful “Torrento.” It is an accomplishment that would make his grandfather very proud.
