FRESH PERSPECTIVE™

OPERATING SINCE JANUARY 2019
​
Part of the Talent4Change Movement, this is an initiative that provides free cosmetology and fashion services for the ones that need it most.

The services provided through this program are meant to help alleviate feelings of discomfort and or embarrassment by boosting up others physical appearance. Striving to give those we serve, as well as those who judge them, a "fresh perspective," we team up with community service providers in the cosmetology and fashion industry to deliver needed "Makeovers" or rather "Do-Overs" for those needing a fresh start.
