Mansfield Hair Cuttery Donates Back to School Haircuts to Children in Need

Mansfield Hair Cuttery launches its 15th annual Share A Haircut program to provide children in need with a fresh haircut to start the new school year.  From August 1st through August 31st, every time a child 18 years old or younger receives a haircut at any of the Hair Cuttery salons in New England, a free hair cut will be donated to an underprivileged child in the community.

 

“We are extremely proud to offer the Share-a-Haircut program to children who need it in our local Hair Cuttery communities,” said Dennis Ratner, Founder and CEO of Hair Cuttery. “We want children not only to learn the power of giving but also to go back to school with confidence. Something as simple as a new haircut can help inspire both.”
