We had the privilege of hosting an incredible group from the AIWCC Men’s and Boys Club this week.

30 young men joined us for a special **“Day in the Life of a Barber”** experience. They got hands-on with **balloon shaves**, received **free haircuts**, and even took part in some friendly competition with **mannequin bowling**.

It was an amazing day filled with laughs, learning, and new experiences. Opportunities like this are what it’s all about—exposing young men to the trade, building confidence, and showing them what’s possible.

Thank you to AIWCC for trusting us with your group. We look forward to the next visit. 💈
