This is my Failed Ethiopian Barber Experience 🇪🇹 vA 45

I walk around Piassa in search of a barber, but as soon as I dive into the narrow streets, everyone is terrified of my camera. Finally, I find some people to help me find a barber, but sadly, my guides were not genuine... I could hear them talking about how much they should charge me, during a big part of the haircut...

If you died TODAY, where would you be spending eternity? Have all your sins been forgiven or are you still hoping that you're a good enough person to earn a spot in heaven. The reality is that no one can earn a spot, our sin disqualifies us. But the God news is that Jesus paid for our qualification by dying on our behalf taking the punishment that we deserved. JESUS said, "For God so loved the world, that He gave His one and only Son; that WHOEVER believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life." - John 3:16 Nothing is more important than your eternal destination. Please, don't say, "When I get older I'll get right with God' or 'I'll get serious with Jesus one day when I'm ready.' Don't wait any longer, today is the day of salvation. Get right with God today, for tomorrow very well might be too late. We invite you to REPENT and accept that Jesus Christ is Lord of your life by praying this simple prayer out loud right now... 'Heavenly Father, I turn away from my old life and repent for my sins. I believe that Jesus came for me, that Jesus died for me and that Jesus rose again for me so that I can be forgiven and receive eternal life. I believe in my heart and confess with my mouth that Jesus Christ is the Lord of my life from this day. Through Him and in His Name, receive the gift of eternal life. I ask you to fill me with the Holy Spirit and lead me for the rest of my life. In Jesus name - Amen.

[@DirasatLanguage]

Look at 13:40. Bigna was telling you he came to Ethiopia to visit his mother, because she's sick, and his friend was literally facepalming listening to this BS. His facial expression tells you everything. Personally, I would have just paid the 600 Birr/$10.98/ and walked away from them. There is a lot of poverty in the country. Inflation is at an all time high and the cost of everything is skyrocketing. 1 US Dollar is 54.64 Birr at banks and airports, but 1 USD is widely traded in the black market for 110 Birr, so 600 Birr is basically $5.45.

[@barcontube1216]

As an Ethiopian I’m ashamed to see you treated like this , no diaspora steals from a barber , that guy is not there for a visit or to take care of his mother , he is most likely deported and living there by scamming foreigners , I’m afraid , it’s dangerous for the locals to to have some one who speak English that well with 0 moral , he could easily scam them ,

[@gstrdms]

That would have been my first question; "Oh, you grew up in the States? How long have you been back in Ethiopia?" Because 90% of the time, deportation for crimes is the case.

[@martamarcha2850]

Yes you are correct, he was most probably a criminal in America and they put him on the first plane to Bole. Any way 600 birr for this cut is not too much for the French man. In Paris I pay for same hair cut for my kid 2 000 ethiopian birr.

[@Delitewon]

@@martamarcha2850 You are missing the point entirely. He isn’t in France getting his haircut. He is in Ethiopia and those guys are of low character. That one that spoke English is probably a deportee and he preyed on someone’s vulnerability. There was something about him that didn’t comport.

[@mr.nobody9086]

As an advice to every traveler... When you travel and discover a new place, look carefully for prices and see the experiences of previous travelers... Do not go with strangers, they may be thieves like the ones you met... Fourth, do not say that you are alone, but you have friends from this country and they are They will come shortly...but you went out for a walk alone for a bit...the person was a thief because he asked you why you didn't hire someone from the area to take a tour with you...and he asked you if you were alone or not...and this confirms that he is a bad person.

Those two guys are scammers 😢 You should have reported them to the local police

[@shaft8779]

Shame..

[@selamzemen1730]

Very shame

[@mr.nobody9086]

Haa, you think the local police would give 2 shits? Bringing awareness and shaming them on social media probably has a more effective outcome.

If you died TODAY, where would you be spending eternity? Have all your sins been forgiven or are you still hoping that you're a good enough person to earn a spot in heaven. The reality is that no one can earn a spot, our sin disqualifies us. But the God news is that Jesus paid for our qualification by dying on our behalf taking the punishment that we deserved. JESUS said, "For God so loved the world, that He gave His one and only Son; that WHOEVER believes in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life." - John 3:16 Nothing is more important than your eternal destination. Please, don't say, "When I get older I'll get right with God' or 'I'll get serious with Jesus one day when I'm ready.' Don't wait any longer, today is the day of salvation. Get right with God today, for tomorrow very well might be too late. We invite you to REPENT and accept that Jesus Christ is Lord of your life by praying this simple prayer out loud right now... 'Heavenly Father, I turn away from my old life and repent for my sins. I believe that Jesus came for me, that Jesus died for me and that Jesus rose again for me so that I can be forgiven and receive eternal life. I believe in my heart and confess with my mouth that Jesus Christ is the Lord of my life from this day. Through Him and in His Name, receive the gift of eternal life. I ask you to fill me with the Holy Spirit and lead me for the rest of my life. In Jesus name - Amen.

25:41 I'm really sad you have to face those to Guys. As an Ethiopian I feel that they have made our country's image bad. I'm really really enjoying your journey.❤❤❤❤

[@princerecaped8645]

point of correction, those sticks are not traditional toothbrush, they are tradition medicine,

[@evamekonnen]

“In Ethiopia there is no filter between the brain and the mouth . They just say what they think without filter “ 😂😂😂

[@Blake4014]

yup it happens everywhere with low iq people, they don't think critically and have forethought its not limited to Ethiopia just idiots.

[@nothingcomeseasy]

They said to the barber that he has to consider them, the haircut, and filming the work when calculating the price... I bet that those scammers took 2/3 of the payment.

[@abdullahalshehri9128]

I feel you. Nobody wants to be scammed

[@LionSharpAction]

The way he shaved him... My back hair left and came back.

[@binkhalifa2004]

That's not too expensive, really - you got a full haircut and beard shave! But please be careful in your adventures - you're a little bit too trusting. When the guys stuck around after showing you the barbershop, that should have been a give- away something's up.

[@danayithabte4733]

I feel so 😢😢😢 why are ppl so mean and this guys are chewing chat I can see from their eyes 😂, any way please go somewhere safe, much love for showing my city ❤🙏

[@Ghion-alhabesh]

I'm an Ethiopian know every side you are traveling but when I'm watching things in your channel all are interesting and new again. But it is sad to see guys asking for un fair money.actually they are thief's. I am ashamed of those guys.

[@romanticker2673]

I've seen enough. If I have the choice again where I want to travel, I will definitely think about it. in 5 weeks capetown yeah

[@eltee8585]

Why didn’t you agree a price before the service ?

[@baconsuma6777]

As I’m Ethiopian I was super mad cause the price was too expensive. But next ask the price first and deal with the person who provided you services do not deal with tourist guides. If you watch the video around 27:46 minutes behind your chair you will see the barber received only 100 birr.

[@LynetteA68]

That’s so sad! The man who did the work got less than the men who did nothing. No wonder the barber didn’t seem to like them!

[@godislove1776]

Why these strangers are the one to negotiate the price? It is so disgusting. The guy even didn't handover the whole money to the barber. As an Ethiopian I am ashamed of them. By the way by just looking at them and how bold they are in asking for free lunch It is reasonable to think that they are in the situation of substance abuse.

[@maxh2500]

I think you did your best since you are a foreigner, and in countries where the rules do not work, anything can happen to a foreigner. So your politics saved you this time, but my advice is: "Try not to let people come close to you and chase you at a great distance." When something is not so urgent, you can do it yourself without much help from others. Wish u to be healthy and happy all the time.

[@Et_sapien]

Its sad it happened to you. But please don't stop walking and talk to everybody because they may be possible scammers like these dudes. Be tough and keep going. And try not to go to such messy areas because there are a lot of places where you can pay much less and get quality things.

[@Zelazella1]

I agree theses always going to be a bad apple’s everywhere you just need to differentiate them from the good people.

[@nisebiho_tube2721]

It is impossible to think that we will always meet a good person in our life. But even though I am very ashamed of them, but i think they thought to cover some of their problems with the money they got, and they did this, so please don't be angry with them. There are many good and sincere people in Ethiopia.

[@wezlo8733]

The thumbnail made me laugh lol.

[@SebastianBecker]

Not too sure here; it's a poor country, you film in there, you CAN afford to overpay by a little bit - 8 Euros is somewhat "fine" and not actually outrageous. And that's n o t the price in Europe; even in Georgia or Armenia, you'll pay usually more than that for a haircut and a shave. :-) In Germany, going to a Persian or Arabian barber, it'll cost nowadays at least +/- 20 Euros. Most importantly: Why wouldn't you ask for the price BEFORE getting the haircut and the shave? (-:

[@osmanmohamed-tp8uc]

I agree with you here 💯 filming the the process of hair cut and putting in youtube itself you make money .. So no need to complain about few dollars . It is what it is ...move on

[@terryhughes7349]

Great episode Yves. Sorry they caused problems. Stay safe!

[@barbe78]
