- In March of 2020, Las Vegas barber Francisco Carbajal was sidelined by the coronavirus pandemic after being deemed as a nonessential worker. Even though this seemed to be a setback, it actually helped him launch his razor blade company, Filoso Barber Brand. The company specializes in creating products made for barbers by barbers. Carbajal really hopes that his success will inspire other Latinos and entrepreneurs to take a chance and build something from nothing. (Las Vegas Review-Journal)
