Behind every barber and salon chair is a trusted connection. Your chairs are more than just places for cuts, fades, braids, and styles. They are safe spaces where people open up, share their lives, and feel seen.

As beauty and grooming professionals, you are in a unique position to be a lifeline.

Oct 16/17th weekend is about equipping your shops to:

Start the conversation and break the stigma around domestic violence.
