Help from Hurricane Helene

Hello, we are Junior Afanador and Ozzie Reyes, owners of Beach Hair and GYM GROOMING BARBERSPA in St. Pete Beach, Florida. We have been financially independent for many years, sharing our success with all by adding services to meet client demand. It was with our blood, sweat, and tears, and especially the passion we have for our profession, that has helped us grow and develop to be the business owners who were truly loved by all of our clients because we made them look and feel their very best!

Unfortunately, Hurricane Helene changed our lives, and it has all come to a complete halt. We lost everything. Every. Thing. It has been devastating, and the initial emotion of feeling absolutely crushed when we realized we lost so much is too overwhelming for words. Literally, everything is damaged and/or cannot be restored. We have worked so hard to see this destruction – it just broke us.

Luckily, because of our commitment to each other as partners and as business owners, we know we are in this together no matter what comes our way. And because of the love of our family, friends, and clients who have become family, we know we will get through this.

The financial blow is paralyzing, and we are asking if you can send a donation. Any amount will help us. If you can, please click the link and send what you can. It will go directly to our business account, and you have our word that all donations will be used to restore our businesses, our inventory, and equipment so we can get back to business, earning an income. The greatest loss so far is that we do not have an income. If you can help with a monetary donation – any amount will help. If you can’t help financially, please share this so that anyone who understands the distressing blow of a hardship of this magnitude might possibly help as well. Maybe someone helped them before, and they are paying it forward. Please share, and we promise to pay it forward as well. We will be forever grateful and invite you to visit when we re-open our doors.

Thank you for your love and light. Most of all, thank you for believing we will be back, better, and stronger! Your support means the world to us and keeps us going. We love you all.
