I literally had chills when that lovely lady was told that with her short hair she looked "young, fresh and really pretty" her reaction was soooo sweet.
The girl who sold her hair for books and tuition looks so happy to finally have enough money to get proper school supplies and I’m really happy for her!

Ayne IV I think you have to understand their currency is different than from dollars. $100 in America is not the same in Vietnam. Like the video stated, she would be able to buy livestock with that money that will provide her more money. You can’t buy livestock in America with just $100
the fact that he treated the woman's hair with respect really warmed my heart and the woman's reaction to the girl saying she looked beautiful was seriously heart warming
Right she was so ginuwine sweet and beautiful !! You could tell , it made me so happy to see that lady happy about it since she was scared of how she’d look before
As a Vietnamese girl and love long, smooth, natural hair. I understand very well how difficult the care process can be. Honesty, to have beautiful and long hair, it is not possible to calculate the care time by days and weeks but by months and years. It took me over five years to get my hair from shoulder length to waist length. We love our hair very much, it is not only about our beliefs but also about our spiritual values. It breaks my heart when women have to sell their hair for their lives and pay unjust and undeserved prices. Please do not say bitter words to the reluctant, unlucky women who have to sell their hair.
Chao Chị! Thank you for putting what I felt in words. As a Vietnamese girl it also infuriates me to ever hardly hear about the criminalizing acts that America did to Vietnam, leaving our country to shredded pieces, and to see that the effects continue. The women's hair that are so pure, nuanced, and one-of-a-kind gets sold to American companies that capitalize off of many woman's impoverishment and lack of establishment to build a better life for herself and her family, therefore causing her to be compelled to sell her hair as there is no option not to. It will always pierce my heart whenever our people live through these abhorrent expenses that take a toll on their well-being and innocence. It is forever undeserving and Vietnam has never done anything to deserve this. All of these comments largely made by Americans if not solely made by Americans just prove to be that they still don't get it and that they cannot come close to comprehending how the monstrosity of the Vietnam War transcends to Vietnam's current life-threatening issues. They want our hair as accessories but fail to respect us... :/
@@Ehaen I'm not American, {UK} and think it's so wrong that women should be exploited for their hair, which is naturally raven black, glossy and like silk. It ends up on the heads of wealthy women, on film stars..a neighbour {UK} makes wigs for Hollywood elite, they are many many thousands of pounds for even a short hair wig, A long one would be a small fortune. {Neighbour is a well respected wigmaker, but lives in a modest house} If the Vietnamese women were given Thousands for their hair, it would be much fairer. The ''End user'' is likely a multi millionaire American who uses the very finest Vietnamese hair. The Vietnam War was awful. Barbaric. People are still suffering from birth defects from defoliants.
it is because black women are too lazy to look after and grow their own hair, they dont care one bit about vietnamese ladies, they are very racist to you in USA.
I actually cried after the First Lady said that she’s scared of cutting her hair. It’s so awful how people are scamming these ladies by only giving them $2-3 and I was so happy that she was receiving $100+
Gabby I know but it’s still seems bad because she took a long time to grow it and make it beautiful and they get paid about 100$ but when they sell the wigs they sell them way more expensive
What i like about this guy: He could have Cut her hair to the neckline but He didnt. He left her enough for both HER feminity and dignity. Already this is Making all the difference.
@@One-12937 i dont believe it Was just for the camera. I dont know for Sure but People talk. Especially the women who sell their hair. Never underestimate gossip even in a country like this where people dont have TV.
We need more people like this guy...I got emotional seeing him cutting the hair in such a caring, respectful and dignified manner. May his business grow from strength to strength.
Instead of just putting it into a ponytail, cutting it, and leaving her with a horrible hairstyle, he made a beautiful bob. That shows the kind of person he is, he pays fairly and cuts hair into beautiful styles.
There is no dignity in any of this. Put yourself in her shoes. You can't pay your rent or afford food. I come along and wave $500 infront of you and say I'll help you out but I want your hair and you to shave your head. You'd do what you have to do but based solely on your facial expressions alone, you're broken. I can see it, so can everyone else. Now just to smoothe things over, I tell you you're beautiful...which you are but you obviously don't feel that way. Do you still feel dignified? A month later, your rent was paid and food was on the table but you're still missing your hair, you're unhappy and self concious and now it's the next month...and rent is due again. Do you still feel dignified? I have a hard time believing anybody would feel like they have dignity when they are left with no other option and are forced to sell a part of themselves merely to exist and not die from starvation or exposure. This is not empowering, it's not dignified, it's exploitation.
Egypt Cat of Denial I want to believe you’re a troll, so so fucking badly. The woman has the money to maybe buy supplies grow some tomatoes or something and sell them, she can also pay her rent off for the month. Hair is not the most important thing in a woman’s life, the moment you know your life is on the line you go ahead and sell what you can sell and not even for a low price, cutting your hair is not permanent either it can grow back jesus christ
The attention and care he puts into making sure the lady selling him her hair can walk away and still feel beautiful and her hair won't be damaged is so beautiful😢
She's selling her hair cause she needs money. Not because she wants to loose her natural beautiful. Soft .attractive. real hair. That's actually attached to her scalp .
So then men need to give women more attention so they can learn to love & accept themselves???? 🤔 Sad ppl ALWAYS want what they can't have. ☹️ The poor sell their beautiful crown for $ so someone that has low self-esteem can feel somewhat better about themselves. SAD world 💔🤦
@@govdid195g7 Sometimes extensions are just fun or a hobby or people have illnesses. Any and all of those reasons including yours are perfectly fine reasons stop being judgemental. fuck.
I remember me getting a short haircut for my first time I cried for like an hour after because my haircut was so ugly. And I paid for that haircut....I wish Dan was around to buy my hair :P
I don't see anything beautiful about a woman selling her hair I am a black woman I have to take extra care of my hair being that my hair is so fragile so I have the respect of any woman that takes care of her hair I wouldn't buy any one else is here because I have a respect for my hair and other people here but the sad thing about it is that they sell their here don't take care of their children or they family it saddens me that this woman gets $100 and the hair is soul or the wig is sold for $15,000 I don't know if that's fair or not and I understand that is just here but there's no thought when a woman is at her beauty parlor I'm getting here soon and I'll gluten there's no thought I guess it said that it was the woman's choice to cut her hair in my eyes she had no choice is Eva help her family and keep her hair so she made the choice yes and my eyes are very harsh choice she took care of her whole family with $100
So disheartening, I have been wearing human hair for over 15 years without ever thinking about where it comes from. Watching this with tears in my eyes for women who get scammed off their hair and for those who sell their much needed hair to support their families. If I am ever going to wear human hair again, I'd buy from this Dan guy, but I may never be wearing human hair ever again.
That's a good decision 👏 maybe you don't have to give it up completely though. It seems you like real hair wigs/extensions a lot and would be a shame for you to lose them. So maybe you can do some research on what you're getting before buying and only get the best of the best. Good luck
I just got extensions because my own hair is too sparse due to health issues. It cost me a LOT of money. But thinking of how most of that money went to the dealer and nearly none to the actual person who GREW my extensions, I've been feeling very weird. It's almost like an organ transplant and yet I felt so rushed and desperate to have decent hair that I had no money to get to know where it even came from.
Idk. I've had my hair cut in a country which is one of the biggest exporters of hair for extensions. The hairdresser's just save the hair as they cut it instead of letting it fall. I didn't even understand what they were doing honestly thought they just wanted to save time on cleaning up. Now I realise they probably collected it for sale didn't even know. It's not always like this
Bruh she can get chocolate or a nice notebook or lays, just go to dollar tree bruh, I would cut my hair 4 some of these cuz I don't care about how tall my hair is
ikr 。in east，south-east and especially south asian countries，the biggest trend for thousands of years is to have beautiful，long， luscious hair 。you've probably seen indian women with super long hair that can reach their legs，because our culture has been that way for thousands of years 。whenever i'm in malaysia，nearly everyone，including many males，have super long and flowing hair 。。
@@pep-o-butt672 "So that they FEEL beautiful" They have kept their hair long because it makes *THEM* FEEL BEAUTIFUL. No one said anything about women with short hair being not beautiful. Don't you dare put words in people's mouths.
Mew Twaila The phrase "for them to still feel beautiful" is wrong, because women are beautiful no matter what and even if she had a fucking buzzcut - she'd still be fucking gorgeous, it's your problem if you think otherwise.
Mavis H their hair will grow back better and faster I wish god gave black female hair like thAt so we would have to but other people hair but I guess it all works out in the end it helps them and us but I never had a weave before am scare to lose my edges
no it made my cry when they cut her hair. and the other scenes made me so emotional, made think about women all around the world who go through hard times idk i just want to cry sm right now. there's something beyond words about this action.
This women is very sweet, you could see the pain in her eyes when she said “I’m going to be very sad after cutting it” and then smiles . And how she covered her face in her hair when the lady said she looked pretty 🥺
I would love to see celebrities get on board with this and truly see the people behind their purchasing of hair extensions. Love this guy, he is a genuine inspiration to his craft.
I actually cried watching this because i never think about hair as a way to gain money. I only saw it as a accessory. This honestly changed my point of view.
Sad ppl sell it for $$$ and others buy it to feel better about themselves. I call it to play pretend...like Lil girls playing dress up wanting to be a princess. Sad all around!😩
@Letucces Satan Sad that ppl have to do something they don't want just to make ends meet. And to see others jumping at the opportunity to make $ off them is disgusting! And the ones buying it have $ but little to no self-esteem. Sad & bad all around.
The woman who was paying for swim lessons for her son got me tearing up. It's the little things that we do that are so sweet for our children. The man buying their hair is a beautiful soul for sure!
I just got reminded of the time I went to get my hip length hair cut and the woman who cut it suddenly started collecting my hair saying she was gonna use my hair to sell it for extentions. I hadn't agreed to that but she wanted to make money outta my hair so I got ticked off and took my hair from her and donated it to a cancer charity. Learned my mistake (I should have gone there from the get go). I'm mostly indigenous so my hair was mostly straight with a hint of waviness so to that woman it was perfect for sale without my permission. My suggestion to folks, if you have really long good hair and want to get a shorter cut, donate it to those who need it before going to a salon or at least get a good deal for it. I almost got my free hair sold off (almost stolen off. That woman made plans for my hair without consulting me ffs) Glad this man actually gives these women good deals and great cuts too. Can't believe some people only offer 3$ for all that hair when some women with long hair might only cut it for financial reasons.
If you didn't plan on donating it or selling it, tf do you care? Lol. Do you get mad at the garbage man for doing the same with your rubbish and recycling?? Educate yourself, but most importantly HUMBLE yourself.
@@pepps1943why are you bring sout to her? Ofc the woman needs to make a living but at the same times she sounds like she's taking her hair with out her permission which seems a little explotive
If I wanted to buy another humans hair, I would want to make sure it's fair trade. Wearing someones hair that was mugged from their head while sleeping is beyond creepy.
Calm down. He is buying hair from women and obviously still turning a huge profit -- it's not like he is doing some favor for them out of the kindness of his heart. Y'all are so susceptible to PR.
I though this was gonna be heartbreaking, that her hair would be cut close to her scalp. He actually left a significant amount and paid her what she needed.
I kind of had to hold back tears for the lady, but they do look cute afterwards. The two-fold bonus and pain is that we release tons of energy in cutting that length of hair, that they have had energetic emotional investment in over a period of years. That's uncomfortable at first, but they will find it is also liberating and freeing
They were paid good. The exchange rate of US dollar for a lot of countries like theirs is really good. Also that type of hair grow so fast. In 3 months she will have long hair again. I know coz I’m Asian too. This trade is fair. I’m happy all these women picked him to sell their hair to.
@Tiffany Penaloza look I sort of see where your coming from but your talking about the difference between first of all 1-3 dollars only and being butchered or using him who gives them $100.00, (and leaves them with hair that's cut not too bad) which they can do so much with, should it be more hell yes but he's just starting out and wants to make a change and that's better than nothing. Plus you can't compare going to a salon in the US with these women who live out far from a city life, they are out in the country and have farms. It's nothing at at all like living in America or Australia (myself) and visiting a salon and getting all the services you'd want, they are selling their hair just to survive not for fun. By the way he did use hair dressing scissors and a comb.
We need to look into the source of what we buy before we buy it! I hope that Dan's company becomes successful and that more companies follow Dan's footsteps.
It’s so beautiful to see that he cut her hair into an actually hairstyle that is very beautiful. She actually looked very pretty with short hair, and to see her joy after she received the compliment was absolutely heart warming.
@@fy9526 well that would be fair since there are also other costs that needs to be considered in order to make the finished product, it's not like he sells the hair immediately after cutting it, he probably has employees who helps him so they they would also have to be compensated
this is so painful to watch . I have been offered money for my hair but refused . I am Bolivian and in bolivia there are indigenous women called cholitas that never cut their hair due to tradition . they have amazing thick dark hair most of the time below their butt and this extension trend has been eye opening for thief's. They literally mug them for their hair as it is easy because traditionally they wear hair in 2 braids always . so they cut , steal their hair and sell it to make wigs, extensions for 1st world countries . BEYOND FUCKED UP not to mention their hair = honor
@jaylen G. Isn’t that something? All it takes is two words to make someone’s day, and make them feel good about themselves, yet there’s so much meanness in the world. 💕
It's deep and simple. Beauty is what you choose to see or feel. One minute she was sad about losing her long hair, the next minute she became happy because someone else saw her beauty from another perspective. Kindness is sweet, kindness is humanity...
Isabel Smith ya but I can just fly to my country where I was born ( Vietnam) I can just go with my aunt to Remy New Your or I can get one of my family memebers to just buy it and order it for me :) the long one is for Ariana grande I would definitely buy that if I was cosplaying as her
This was actually really heartwarming. I was expecting them just to expose the cruel and unethical side but instead we got a picture of what the industry could be if everyone decides to care
This man is a great person. He could have cut her hair very short to her neckline but didnt and left some her for her femininity and dignity and didnt cute it very choppy and ugly but took the time to actually make it look nice. He treated the womens hair with respect and gave them a fair amount of money and wants to help change the world and help families who are struggling!
I know right. Massive respect right there. I love what he is representing and respecting women’s hair, because it is indeed a symbol of femininity, short or long, we wear it proudly to represent we are women, and instead of him cutting their hair sloppily and ruining their dignity and looks and wishes or making it too short without cleanup or to stop representing femininity, I respect that so much. At least if hair is to be donated it is done in a humane way in his business.
Then there's the temples of India turning a profit hacking women, men & children completely bald of their natural "crown" under the guise of religious sacrifice.
@@aqua_finessa6030 your comment reeks of ignorance. They are giving their hair as a sacrificial offering willingly. But in your eyes you equate them as "victims" because you see hair only as a means of expressing your and others' personal vanity. They are happy to do this, but because you do not share their beliefs, it is abusive?!
This genuinely made me tear up. I grew up in a place where I didn't associate my hair with my femininity, but rather it made me feel unsafe and targeted for the femininity it presented, and I've only recently started growing it out again. It's amazing to see the other side of the spectrum where these women pride and cherish their hair, and it can help their families and homes.

Wdym? He is trying to help women in needs, plus he respects the womens feminity and paids them. I don't see this as a cruel thing considering that they literally sold their hair for a better life.

I once mentored a girl who had been homeless and sleeping under an interstate highway. She woke up one morning to find someone had cut off all her long blonde hair.
Doc Holliday so rude and mean. She just made a massive sacrifice for her family and she doesn’t have much confidence, and so she is being told how beautiful she really is, because she is. Not helpful when people like you are so negative and mean. Nothing nice to say then don’t say anything at all.
I donated my hair to people with cancer when I was a freshman in high school. I have long blonde curly hair, and I really hope that someone out there enjoyed or enjoys my hair, I really try to take good care of it.
I remember in was in kindergarten and my mom and I did that. I have straight, long, black hair btw. Did it again with my sister. Every time I feel so happy because I know that someone who wishes they had hair will get hair. Its an amazing thing to do.
I love what Dan is doing w/ Remy New York! I've used a lot of hair extensions over the years, many of them human, and today found this video when marveling over how it can even be possible for enough human hair to be collected to make the plentiful human hair extensions available across the U.S. and worldwide. I got two sets of extensions years ago, each of which cost about $5k to have installed, and each of them lasted about 8 months. I wish I had put more effort into re-using that beautiful quality hair more times, but I was really young and not as educated about how to do that. The prices most hair buyers are offering is absolutely dead wrong. I wish we could all collectively agree to pay these women a fair price for something so personal, and considering their dire circumstances. Thank you for making this thoughtful documentary!
Yess i cried! Its really difficult to explain how much a girl or just anyone in general might be attached to their hair.. especially that lady, it clearly looks like she had been growing her hair throughout her entire life. God bless her and her family ♥️

I'm sure she is very thankful for even being given this opportunity as opposed to the 2 or 3 dollars offered in the past.. it's just such a sad secretive industry that by now I thought quality alternatives to real hair would make stealing hair a thing of the past- considering our advancements in technology and shit....

Right she was so ginuwine sweet and beautiful !! You could tell , it made me so happy to see that lady happy about it since she was scared of how she’d look before
CamiliaxBoba what?? the man did the womans hair, then the blonde women complimented the women who got her hair cut. whats the point of ur comment?
As a Vietnamese girl and love long, smooth, natural hair. I understand very well how difficult the care process can be. Honesty, to have beautiful and long hair, it is not possible to calculate the care time by days and weeks but by months and years. It took me over five years to get my hair from shoulder length to waist length. We love our hair very much, it is not only about our beliefs but also about our spiritual values. It breaks my heart when women have to sell their hair for their lives and pay unjust and undeserved prices. Please do not say bitter words to the reluctant, unlucky women who have to sell their hair.
Chao Chị! Thank you for putting what I felt in words. As a Vietnamese girl it also infuriates me to ever hardly hear about the criminalizing acts that America did to Vietnam, leaving our country to shredded pieces, and to see that the effects continue. The women's hair that are so pure, nuanced, and one-of-a-kind gets sold to American companies that capitalize off of many woman's impoverishment and lack of establishment to build a better life for herself and her family, therefore causing her to be compelled to sell her hair as there is no option not to. It will always pierce my heart whenever our people live through these abhorrent expenses that take a toll on their well-being and innocence. It is forever undeserving and Vietnam has never done anything to deserve this.
All of these comments largely made by Americans if not solely made by Americans just prove to be that they still don't get it and that they cannot come close to comprehending how the monstrosity of the Vietnam War transcends to Vietnam's current life-threatening issues. They want our hair as accessories but fail to respect us... :/
@@Ehaen I'm not American, {UK} and think it's so wrong that women should be exploited for their hair, which is naturally raven black, glossy and like silk.
It ends up on the heads of wealthy women, on film stars..a neighbour {UK} makes wigs for Hollywood elite, they are many many thousands of pounds for even a short hair wig, A long one would be a small fortune. {Neighbour is a well respected wigmaker, but lives in a modest house}
If the Vietnamese women were given Thousands for their hair, it would be much fairer.
The ''End user'' is likely a multi millionaire American who uses the very finest Vietnamese hair.
The Vietnam War was awful.
Barbaric. People are still suffering from birth defects from defoliants.
it is because black women are too lazy to look after and grow their own hair, they dont care one bit about vietnamese ladies, they are very racist to you in USA.

There is no dignity in any of this. Put yourself in her shoes. You can't pay your rent or afford food. I come along and wave $500 infront of you and say I'll help you out but I want your hair and you to shave your head. You'd do what you have to do but based solely on your facial expressions alone, you're broken. I can see it, so can everyone else. Now just to smoothe things over, I tell you you're beautiful...which you are but you obviously don't feel that way. Do you still feel dignified? A month later, your rent was paid and food was on the table but you're still missing your hair, you're unhappy and self concious and now it's the next month...and rent is due again. Do you still feel dignified? I have a hard time believing anybody would feel like they have dignity when they are left with no other option and are forced to sell a part of themselves merely to exist and not die from starvation or exposure. This is not empowering, it's not dignified, it's exploitation.
Egypt Cat of Denial I want to believe you’re a troll, so so fucking badly. The woman has the money to maybe buy supplies grow some tomatoes or something and sell them, she can also pay her rent off for the month. Hair is not the most important thing in a woman’s life, the moment you know your life is on the line you go ahead and sell what you can sell and not even for a low price, cutting your hair is not permanent either it can grow back jesus christ
@Leo Milazzo
What was the bitch for?
The attention and care he puts into making sure the lady selling him her hair can walk away and still feel beautiful and her hair won't be damaged is so beautiful😢
She's selling her hair cause she needs money. Not because she wants to loose her natural beautiful. Soft .attractive. real hair. That's actually attached to her scalp .
So then men need to give women more attention so they can learn to love & accept themselves???? 🤔 Sad ppl ALWAYS want what they can't have. ☹️ The poor sell their beautiful crown for $ so someone that has low self-esteem can feel somewhat better about themselves. SAD world 💔🤦

I don't see anything beautiful about a woman selling her hair I am a black woman I have to take extra care of my hair being that my hair is so fragile so I have the respect of any woman that takes care of her hair I wouldn't buy any one else is here because I have a respect for my hair and other people here but the sad thing about it is that they sell their here don't take care of their children or they family it saddens me that this woman gets $100 and the hair is soul or the wig is sold for $15,000 I don't know if that's fair or not and I understand that is just here but there's no thought when a woman is at her beauty parlor I'm getting here soon and I'll gluten there's no thought I guess it said that it was the woman's choice to cut her hair in my eyes she had no choice is Eva help her family and keep her hair so she made the choice yes and my eyes are very harsh choice she took care of her whole family with $100

So disheartening, I have been wearing human hair for over 15 years without ever thinking about where it comes from. Watching this with tears in my eyes for women who get scammed off their hair and for those who sell their much needed hair to support their families.
If I am ever going to wear human hair again, I'd buy from this Dan guy, but I may never be wearing human hair ever again.
That's a good decision 👏 maybe you don't have to give it up completely though. It seems you like real hair wigs/extensions a lot and would be a shame for you to lose them. So maybe you can do some research on what you're getting before buying and only get the best of the best. Good luck
I just got extensions because my own hair is too sparse due to health issues. It cost me a LOT of money. But thinking of how most of that money went to the dealer and nearly none to the actual person who GREW my extensions, I've been feeling very weird. It's almost like an organ transplant and yet I felt so rushed and desperate to have decent hair that I had no money to get to know where it even came from.
Idk. I've had my hair cut in a country which is one of the biggest exporters of hair for extensions. The hairdresser's just save the hair as they cut it instead of letting it fall. I didn't even understand what they were doing honestly thought they just wanted to save time on cleaning up. Now I realise they probably collected it for sale didn't even know. It's not always like this
Not all hair comes from unethical sources. I pay thousands for ethnically sourced Caucasian (because it matches mine) hair.
15 years is a long time to use a product and not think about its origins.
$2 how insulting. That's barely enough for a coffee. Shame on some of these vendors.
Bruh she can get chocolate or a nice notebook or lays, just go to dollar tree bruh, I would cut my hair 4 some of these cuz I don't care about how tall my hair is
N05 They are poor, she used that money to stay alive not to eat a damn chocolate.
its more than you think in poorer countries. Yet, they're getting scammed.
coffee in vietnam can be lower than 2$, but selling hair for 2-3$ is not enough to live.

The pain in her face while he’s cutting her hair is honestly heartbreaking
ikr 。in east，south-east and especially south asian countries，the biggest trend for thousands of years is to have beautiful，long， luscious hair 。you've probably seen indian women with super long hair that can reach their legs，because our culture has been that way for thousands of years 。whenever i'm in malaysia，nearly everyone，including many males，have super long and flowing hair 。。

I just got reminded of the time I went to get my hip length hair cut and the woman who cut it suddenly started collecting my hair saying she was gonna use my hair to sell it for extentions. I hadn't agreed to that but she wanted to make money outta my hair so I got ticked off and took my hair from her and donated it to a cancer charity. Learned my mistake (I should have gone there from the get go).
I'm mostly indigenous so my hair was mostly straight with a hint of waviness so to that woman it was perfect for sale without my permission.
My suggestion to folks, if you have really long good hair and want to get a shorter cut, donate it to those who need it before going to a salon or at least get a good deal for it. I almost got my free hair sold off (almost stolen off. That woman made plans for my hair without consulting me ffs)
Glad this man actually gives these women good deals and great cuts too. Can't believe some people only offer 3$ for all that hair when some women with long hair might only cut it for financial reasons.
If you didn't plan on donating it or selling it, tf do you care? Lol.
Do you get mad at the garbage man for doing the same with your rubbish and recycling?? Educate yourself, but most importantly HUMBLE yourself.

Calm down. He is buying hair from women and obviously still turning a huge profit -- it's not like he is doing some favor for them out of the kindness of his heart. Y'all are so susceptible to PR.
I though this was gonna be heartbreaking, that her hair would be cut close to her scalp. He actually left a significant amount and paid her what she needed.
Heinrich I did too I was feeling sad.
I kind of had to hold back tears for the lady, but they do look cute afterwards. The two-fold bonus and pain is that we release tons of energy in cutting that length of hair, that they have had energetic emotional investment in over a period of years. That's uncomfortable at first, but they will find it is also liberating and freeing
they have free trendy haircut and are paid instead of paying for the hairstylist service!
Win-win situation !
They were paid good. The exchange rate of US dollar for a lot of countries like theirs is really good. Also that type of hair grow so fast. In 3 months she will have long hair again. I know coz I’m Asian too. This trade is fair. I’m happy all these women picked him to sell their hair to.
@Tiffany Penaloza look I sort of see where your coming from but your talking about the difference between first of all 1-3 dollars only and being butchered or using him who gives them $100.00, (and leaves them with hair that's cut not too bad) which they can do so much with, should it be more hell yes but he's just starting out and wants to make a change and that's better than nothing. Plus you can't compare going to a salon in the US with these women who live out far from a city life, they are out in the country and have farms. It's nothing at at all like living in America or Australia (myself) and visiting a salon and getting all the services you'd want, they are selling their hair just to survive not for fun.
By the way he did use hair dressing scissors and a comb.
We need to look into the source of what we buy before we buy it! I hope that Dan's company becomes successful and that more companies follow Dan's footsteps.
That woman looks so nice with her shorter hair and I loved to see her smile, so cute!
And the good thing is that it will most likely grow back.
It’s so beautiful to see that he cut her hair into an actually hairstyle that is very beautiful. She actually looked very pretty with short hair, and to see her joy after she received the compliment was absolutely heart warming.

I wonder how much Dan sells the hair for? I'm guessing a significant amount more than what he paid for it
@@fy9526 well that would be fair since there are also other costs that needs to be considered in order to make the finished product, it's not like he sells the hair immediately after cutting it, he probably has employees who helps him so they they would also have to be compensated

At least if hair is to be donated it is done in a humane way in his business.

This genuinely made me tear up.

I love what Dan is doing w/ Remy New York! I've used a lot of hair extensions over the years, many of them human, and today found this video when marveling over how it can even be possible for enough human hair to be collected to make the plentiful human hair extensions available across the U.S. and worldwide. I got two sets of extensions years ago, each of which cost about $5k to have installed, and each of them lasted about 8 months. I wish I had put more effort into re-using that beautiful quality hair more times, but I was really young and not as educated about how to do that.
The prices most hair buyers are offering is absolutely dead wrong. I wish we could all collectively agree to pay these women a fair price for something so personal, and considering their dire circumstances. Thank you for making this thoughtful documentary!
This man, is THE game changer the hair/weave industry needs. God bless the ethical practiced professional.

I love her reaction when she tells the first lady she looks young, fresh and beautiful. She reacted like a happy young girl, got me teary.
It was adorable
Yess i cried!
Its really difficult to explain how much a girl or just anyone in general might be attached to their hair.. especially that lady, it clearly looks like she had been growing her hair throughout her entire life. God bless her and her family ♥️
Same I started crying.
Me toooo
My hair once was over my butt, so when I cut it I donated it and ever since then I had always wondered who is wearing my hair.
Careful who you donate it to locks of love sales it
@@littleblueprintwritinghood192 its more efficient to sell it anyway. if you donate damaged processed hair, it isnt even worth the money to make into a wig when you could sell it for scrap and buy mass produced human wigs for those cancer patients.
@@personmcdudeguy no try again do your research they DO NOT DONATE to cancer patients they SELL to cancer patients.....but their are some places that are non-profits instead of not-for profits......it's a slide of hand truck by companies to SOUND like a non-profit just like those clothes donation bins YEP......anyway it's been so many years since I've had to wear a wig I'll look up the REAL non-profits and post
Hair contains DNA it's a very important part of humans
@@littleblueprintwritinghood192 i was just going off what you said. i dont know anything about locks of love because i dont pay attention to that stuff. your comment wasnt clear enough... and my point still makes sense. also why are you yelling??
Looking for wigs and came across this. So glad to see there are ethically sourced hair! Thank you for broadening our perspective. Cheers!!
The richest people make the most money and get the biggest benefit from POOR people. This will never change.
FoolyLiving exactly ....
Right
I agree with you.
*"Corruption always starts at the top"*
not if people start demanding fair products, everyone should
I donated my hair when I cut like 13 inches of it off and I was shown a picture of a lil girl wearing a wig my hair was made into. emotional rollercoaster that day.
don't comment pls my notifs are dying rn.
that’s so sweet
I did this a few years back, I cut 10 inches off my hair and when I saw the little boy wearing it I almost cried
Great thing bro. Continue you beautiful kindness.
I already cut my hair but I am going to grow it out again and donate it,I am excited to make a person happy by doing it
That’s so wholesome wow 🥺 I’m so happy for you guys
Why is this unlisted? This has such a good message, and Remy New York is an inspiration. People need to see this!
This is his instagram go follow: instagram.com/theremyny/
Zara Sharpe-Dai I worry about his security
I think it was unlisted for a day so it could be on their site first, but it seems to be public now.
Zara Sharpe-Dai i agree

i gave my hair to a cancer institution, never had to think about selling it and i feel so sad for these women having to cut theirs to get money. he's such a kind soul for not taking advantage of them and really trying to help
This took such a pleasant turn, and I needed that. I hope Dan's take on this industry becomes the new normal!
Yes!
I screamed with joy when the first woman said she liked her hair. Dan is really a great guy for doing what’s he’s doing
idk she prolly got nervous talking to a white girl
the way she smiled when she was called beautiful :') so sweet
Caitie Fernandez your profile picture was my exact reaction
i know right! she’s adorable, and when she said she was beautiful, she beamed and i teared up a bit lmao
Thank you for giving her that compliment that was very very nice of you, it changed her whole vibe. Much love to you ❤
I'm glad this guy is out there paying a decent price and that the women still.get to keep feminine styles!
It was so cute to see her joy when complimented. She did look cute and her cut was nice
Better yet 100$ is Alot More money in vietnam!
The temple they showed in the vedio is tirumala temple my home town I have literally given my hair 10 to 12 times now knowing that my hair might have been someone else wig .....
I LOVE MY COUNTRY

Crying at the mom cutting her hair to put her son in swimming lessons 😭💛
Terrible sad this world is getting worse ,
Sara Bellefeuille lol wHy?
Omg same!
@@58roses What do you mean why? She's beautiful with short hair, but it's sad to know that she's so poor that she has to sell hair for money- a little over a hundred dollars, which can pay for so much.
Turtle CommanderChief remember there’s a huge difference where they live and they explained that enough for over a month of expenses for everything
This made me so sad. But I love that he gave them a nice cut instead of chopping it all off. What a good man and I hope more people try to do fair trade.
It’s people like Dan who are the real heroes in this world. We worship the wrong people. Believe that. Universe 🌹✨✨✨
I hope that high maintenance woman/men stop buying hair in the first place..
There are adults and children who need this hair when they go bald from chemo. I can understand that. IMO Woman or men who buy it for glam are selfndulgent
@@Curious-Irish-Angel Brilliant comment xx
Yeah and he gave them $100 that's 23,26,550.00 in Vietnamese dong.
He also knows that in a few years time, those women will go back to him again. It's all part of earning trust, and being valued.
I watched this some years ago and I made a point to never forget it. I haven’t worn another woman’s hair on my head in years.
Honestly I wouldn't buy a human hair wig unless I knew exactly how I got it.
DAN YOU’RE THE MAN!!!!!

snapstring Thanku I will
The first lady looked so pretty with her shorter hair. I almost cried because she did, but after seeing the respectful way the guy cut her hair and treated her, I felt proud for her. Another woman, doing what she had to do to sustain her family.
I love how bashful and shy Thuy got when Lexy complimented her at 9:46. Such a genuine beautiful smile :")))))))
ME TOO! I was not prepared with how sweet and candid Thuy's response was. So sweet.
I warmed my heart so much
Joh Rice you’re beautiful.
Marcos you’re beautiful.
You go Dan from Remy! That’s the way to be transparent and ethical. You are the standard for the extension industry. ❤️
I hope his company booms. He’s excellent.
I hope and pray that you are wrong and that everyone, including celebrities, care. It is wonderful to see this man caring for the women from whom he purchases the hair. Truly a win win situation for seller and buyer. You ROCK!!
Karen Antle I Agree, he’s very Fair yo the Ladies
exploding hair only exists in botched computer simulations...
Karen Antle what’s the name of his company ? Do they deliver?

Thui's smile after Lexi told her she liked her hair after the cut was so heartwarming!
Oh my, Dan is the best. He gave them such cute bobs. They all looked beautiful with their long hair and shorter.
Bless you Dan! 💕 You are making a difference in those women’s lives!!! And their families! Normalize what Dan is doing NOW!! I did tear up with the woman said she was gonna miss her hair. Having to lose something she loved just to provide for her family. 💔
Also her short hair IS really cute, it does actually take like ten years off her.
Boxing Supraves Whats wrong with you?
ABSOLUTELY!!!! 👩👌😜✌

When I was thirteen, I donated my hair to help people with cancer. I have super thick red hair, and the picture I was given back by the foundation was of a smiling girl younger than I was wearing the wig they had made. I still have it tucked away somewhere, and even the thought of it makes me smile. I'm currently growing my hair so I can do it again.
That's great! thank god you donated to an actual organization instead of some sketchy one that takes your hair and sells it
May I ask what foundation did you donate your hair to?
@@multixloves3072 I chose a local Children's hospital. I don't know if yours runs a program like that, but hopefully it does!
Well I didn’t donate my hair but I shaved my head after growing my hair really nice long curly and blond and had people give me money for charity and I raised a couple thousand dollars for cancer unfortunately the charity thing I did is not in my state anymore unfortunately
your an amazing person
This video made me cry happy tears, I’m so happy to see that there are people truly making a difference and taking steps to make the world a better place.
I wanted to cry for the older woman who was really sad, but needed the income to help her family. and after when the host said some really wonderful words to make her feel beautiful i cried a little.
She actually looks beautiful 😭 I could see the pain through her eyes when he was cutting her hair ❤️
Choking on tears .. so poor that a woman has to sell her hair to help her family .. oh my, it's not fair .. it's just not ..
I'm sure she is very thankful for even being given this opportunity as opposed to the 2 or 3 dollars offered in the past.. it's just such a sad secretive industry that by now I thought quality alternatives to real hair would make stealing hair a thing of the past- considering our advancements in technology and shit....
I've been so impressed by Dan's ethics and compassion for others. His business will grow exponentially.
@Anna Richardson because its sentimental. In the real world, crookery pays more than honesty and integrity. You can't drive business growth by compassion!
@@musazwane6049 people naturally want things that come from more sustainable sources + most people buying human hair wigs can afford to get them from somewhere more ethical
@StayInAlive you’re right instead of universes u can say god
Awww when the lady blushed after she was called pretty was so heartwarming like I smiled along. It was so cute 🥺
wheres dan's nobel peace prize? he deserves it.
🏆here 🙊
@@Cars9091 You know that Nobel invented nuclear weapons
@@kayla4551 So, he was still a great scientist
To all of the girls who cut their hair bc they are heartbroken: don't throw the hair, donate it for people who have cancer.
Who the heck cuts their hair when they are heartbroken
@@fatema861 Most depressed girl teenagers.
A year ago I cut my hair cause depression, I literally did at the level of the ears, I wanted to donate it, but it wasn't enough long even though my hair was long, it reached my waist, but they said it wasn't enough 🤷🏽♀️
B̸o̸b̸a̸ T̸e̸a̸’ can you shut up

If u be making hair extensions, make it like Dan does. Dan has a plan. He's the man

Big shout out to Dan from Remy New York, I respect him trying to be the change he wants to see in the industry, a lot of people don’t have the heart to do that.
When the woman cut her hair so her son can do swim lessons😭😭😭😭😭
She obviously couldn't afford it, and wanted a good experience for her son.
@@rubyzhao6915 & she Didn't want him to drown
She could have taught him. I taught my three.. they swim like fishes in their 30’s
Well it’s not something really bad, I don’t think she couldn’t afford, just simply that she might want to cut her hair, and that is great when she can sell her hair and spend is as a gift for her son. It just make cutting hair became more valuable :)
It’s the small thing 🥰😭
didn't expect to almost cry watching this!! good on him.
Tessa Violet I almost teared up too watching the end.

Same here
... over hair that could be from a dead body lol.
I always sell my hair. Every 2 years. I only let them cut my hair during summer. Less damage to my hair and grows faster. I'm Indigenous, so my hair is really black and straight. The first time I sold my hair. I used the money to runaway from my violent husband. My son and I are happier now. I work as a cashier and what I make there is not enough to cover the bills.
I'm so so happy you could run away from your husband and give a better life for both of you, your son and you
I’m glad you could leave, but I hope you are doing ok now. Please be safe out there.
Where do you sell your hair?
Where do you sell it?
Fake news.
It’s amazing to see such a beautiful person turn a horrible situation into something good. I’m so sad for these women taking advantage of, but so joyful to see someone trying to make it better
