Going to the barbershop usually means just getting a trim for most kids.
But at City Cuts Barbershop outside Philadelphia, kids are getting a boost in confidence that doesn't just come from their new "do."
The Kutztown shop is getting kids to read in a unique way.
TRENDING NOW:
Jon Escueta owns the barbershop, and gives any kid $3 if they'll read to him while he cuts their hair.
"I was that shy kid not be able to speak up and say what's on my mind. I was scared of what everyone is thinking so I know what they are feeling," Escueta says.
It starts with a fresh cut, but the relationship between barber and these kids has them leaving with more confidence than any haircut ever could.
