Will barbershops become just a memory?

The crisis of continuous power cuts continues for more than two months in the city of Tripoli. The work of the people of the city has been disrupted and the situation has been getting worse, in light of the loss of diesel fuel for the owners of private generators.

Barbershops are the most affected by the crisis, so their owners moved their shops to the streets in search of light. One barber said, “The shaving machines have finished charging, there are no generators because we have run out of diesel, knowing that the subscription bill amounted to one million pounds this month.” He added, “The crisis affects all of us, what is happening is a tragedy.” Another said, “Our work needs electricity, which we miss, and we lack diesel.”

This situation is no longer tolerated by the people of the city, before whom all solutions stumbled, so they coexisted with crises without help or strength. A citizen said, “We sleep on the balcony or on the roof. All the countries of the world are advancing, except for Lebanon, which is regressing, and all we wish for is emigration.”

This is how the wishes became, to leave the country for those who looted and spread corruption in it.
