Check out the makeover this homeless veteran got!

The makeover, which included a haircut, beard trim, dye job and a designer suit, was meant to inspire Wolf, from the outside in.

“It’s more than just a haircut and clothing. To see yourself look like that is to see that potential. There are things inside implied by the way you look outside — stability and peace of mind,” Bliss said.

Degage Ministries, a local charity that helps the homeless, helped put Wolf and Bliss in touch with each other, and arranged for the makeover.

“Jim is someone people would have ignored. Now he looks like someone on cover of GQ,” Bliss said.
