Huntsville Braid-A-Thon Helps Kids Get Ready for School with Free Hair Care | July 28,2024 | WHNT Ne
SUMMARY: At the annual “Fresh to School” event, held at the Bob Harrison Wellness and Advocacy Center, volunteers provided free haircuts to local children in grades 6-12, addressing an often-overlooked back-to-school essential: hair care. Organized by CN I Solutions and supported by local barbers and hairstylists, the event aimed to boost children’s confidence for the school year. Many families face financial burdens for hair services, with costs ranging from $150 to $200. The initiative not only alleviates these expenses but also gives kids a transformative experience, leaving them feeling fresh and prepared for the new school year.
The event was held at the Bob Harrison Wellness and Advocacy Center.
