What is Shear Kindness?

Can something as simple as a haircut change the world?  We believe it can.

The goal of Shear Kindness is to provide people in our communities with an opportunity to receive a professional haircut to aid in the process of healing and restoration.  However, this is about more than a haircut.  It's about dignity and the belief that all people possess intrinsic worth and deserve unconditional respect, regardless of age, sex, health status, social or ethnic origin, political ideas, religion, or criminal history.
