Barbers in action

WILLEMSTAD--This year too, “Sentro di Detenshon i Korekshon Kòrsou” (SDKK) is organising the “Back to School – Barbershop” haircutting project in Curaçao. It started Monday morning at the community centre in Montaña and will last three days.

The project offers the penitentiary’s inmates who have completed a barbering course the opportunity to demonstrate their cutting skills and professionalism in practice.

As part of the initiative, haircutting stations are being set up at three different locations on the island. There is space in each neighbourhood to cut the hair of more than one hundred children.

After Montaña, the barbers will be at the Scouting clubhouse in Santa Maria near the cemetery today. Tuesday. On Wednesday, the project will be held at the Tera Kòrá community centre.

The clients of SDKK, as the government and the prison prefer to call detainees, perform the haircuts together with personnel from the Curaçao Fire Department and the Curaçao Police Force KPC.
