Accepting a gift from a barber

Q: I needed ithmid surma so my husband arranged it as one of his friends went for umrah. That person is a barber by profession and gave surmah as a gift. He trims, shaves beard of clients and there is a television in his shop. I want to know if I can use the surma or not?

A: Yes

And Allah Ta'ala (الله تعالى) knows best.
