It's a homemade haircut worth talking about!

COVID-19 is having a profound impact on our world, and most notably our frontline workers which include; healthcare providers, foodbanks, grocery stores, transportation and many other essential services and their families and staff – around the globe. While every Foundation has it's own needs based on their individual situations, they all rely on generous donors like you to fill the gap between government funding and the greater needs of their hospital.

We're challenging you to a COVID chop for good! Give a cut, or get a cut from a quarantine buddy and direct the funds that you would've spent on a 'professional' haircut to a frontline service of your choice.

Once you've finished your masterpiece, donate below, then share it on social media and challenge your friends to a Haircut for Good too!

For our frontline workers

It's no secret that this is a challenging time around our world, as we work together to fight COVID-19. From staying home, washing our hands, and taking care of our loved ones, we're all doing our part in this season.

But it's our frontline workers, those on the front lines who are going above and beyond to keep us safe. We're so thankful for their heroic effort to keep our communities healthy, to stop the spread of COVID-19, and care for those in critical situations as a result of this virus.

Join us as we say thank you to them, as we show our support, and as we stand together in this time - even if thats through a subpar new haircut!

Where is my donation going?

Your donation will be given to the Frontline group of your choice. If you don't have one in mind, pick the group closest to your community.

Why Frontline workers and essential services?

In North America and around the world, healthcare, food, transportation and many other systems are overwhelmed. Charities are doing all they can to ensure they can care for all systems that have been effected by COVID-19 as the virus continues to spread. Many are in desperate need of funds to aid their responses. We're so thankful you are choosing to support your local frontline workers in this time.

We believe beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Should you not be satisfied with your cut, we're confident it'll grow on you.

Are you a Stylist or a Barber?

First of all, we're really thankful for you and can't wait to see you as soon as we can.
