Community

We believe small businesses should give back to the people and communities that keep them going.

From direct support and taking care to queer events, community haircuts, and local partnerships, these are some of the ways we try to do that.

HAIRCUTS AS CARE

Hair can be part of how people feel more like themselves, and access matters.

Through community haircut days, partnerships, and fundraising efforts, we try to make gender-affirming hair more available while also using the chair as a place for care, support, and connection.

Over the years, this work has included collaborations with The Dresscode Project's Gender Free Haircut Club, as well as our partnership with Directions Youth Services supporting 2SLGBTQIA+ youth.

Our partnership with Directions Youth Services, offering gender-affirming haircuts for 2SLGBTQIA+ youth, was featured on CBC Radio's The Early Edition.

Taking Care

Doing the work of taking care means more than just saying we care. These are some of the ways we try to show up with real support, mutual aid, and practical love.

Supporting Our Scene

A good neighbourhood needs more than businesses.

It needs art, weirdness, performance, and places for people to gather.

This is some of how we support the scene around us.

Organizations We Support

These are some of the organizations doing important work in our community.

We’re proud to support them and the care they put into the world.
