When the pandemic pushed a lot of people to get creative with their means of living, one D.C. barber saw the perfect opportunity to keep going.⁠
⁠
46-year-old Dante Brown launched Platinum Barber Services (platinum_barber_services) in 2021 after being forced to leave his rental booth at a local barbershop due to the pandemic. ⁠
⁠
In an effort to create a safe environment for him and his loyal customers, Brown transformed a cargo trailer into a fully functional one-seat barbershop, and business hasn’t stopped booming yet. ⁠
⁠
“I’m still in disbelief. I still think it’s a dream. I still think I need to be woken up.”⁠
