For many people who identify as a part of LGBTQ2S+ communities this makes a trip to the salon/barber shop something they dread and avoid. They are afraid that they will encounter harassment or subtle disdain as they request a haircut that doesn’t “match” society’s perception of their gender.

A haircut is never just a haircut. It is a critical part of how we express ourselves and often the first step in someone looking in the mirror and seeing the person they are on the inside.

We are proud members of The Dresscode Project for this very reason.  @thedresscodeproject
