Haircuts For Those In Need is a 501c3 nonprofit located in Buffalo New York. We build up confidence and self esteem through good hair.
You know how great you feel after a fresh haircut! Its that feeling magnified for our guests who haven't had a haircut in quite some time due to financial struggles or being unhoused.
Cause when you look good, you feel good, and when you feel good the opportunities are endless!
Our goal is to raise enough funds to cover our insurance, website costs, supplies, and to save for an RV fully equipped like a salon so we can get out there and serve more of the Western New York communities in need.

Haircuts For Those In Need was founded in May of 2018 by Charlene Thomas (FKA Minx). Char assembled a team to join efforts with a local group and gave out free haircuts at the same time they were giving out food to unhoused people and others in need. Local hairstylists and barbers come together to make this all possible!

Help Us, Help Others!
We provide free haircuts to those who cannot afford one in the Buffalo, NY region. Our goal is to raise funds to cover insurance, website costs, and supplies. In addition, we would like to purchase an RV that we can cut and wash hair in. This would allow us to provide a full-service salon experience and travel to more communities!
