After more than two decades of living on the street, a homeless man named José Antonio accepted the invitation of an acquaintance of his who owned a beauty salon in Palma de Mallorca, Spain, to cut his hair.

What I did not expect is that the makeover also meant a life change.

In a video that has triumphed on social networks, you can see the work that the team from the La Salvajería salon did to transform the image of the destitute who made a living caring for cars in a plaza.

At first Josete, as his friends call him, appears with a careless image, long white hair and beard. Then you see how they cut his hair, his beard … Even his eyebrows went through a touch-up!

To complete the change of look, she was also provided with new and quite modern clothes.

The change is so radical that when he sees himself, he has to fight to hold back his tears and exclaims excitedly: “Carallo! I don't recognize myself”.

The metamorphosis of the destitute, which was recorded in a video by director Santi Oliva, can open a new life for him. Josete's next goal is to find a stable job, and whatever the opportunity is, he doesn't want to let her escape. "I can guarantee that I will give them 110 percent in whatever I end up doing," he said. "Taking care of cars doesn't make anyone happy."
