Salon Services
Once a month, a group called Beauty and Hope comes into our shelter to give haircuts, facials, massages, manicures, and more.
Kaylynn, who founded the group, said, “These services are vital for those who have been abused. Those who have never felt a loving touch, or felt truly cared for. For someone who has been made to feel worthless, these services remind them of their worth. Beauty is not so much about how we look but about how we feel. Hair and spa services make us feel beautiful and worthy.
Beauty services directly affect our self-esteem. It makes us feel better about ourselves. You feel important and cared for. When you get a haircut or facial it is very soothing and relaxing. A gentle, soothing touch reminds us that we are valued.”
Beauty Changes Everything
“Every time we volunteer our services at NWAWS everyone is so thankful we are there. Every person that receives a haircut or facial leaves with a smile on their face and more joy in their hearts. You can tell their spirits have been lifted.”
~Kaylynn Garland, founder of Beauty and Hope
Some of our clients have had their physical appearance change due to violence. Some of our clients have been berated about their physical appearance.
We believe that beauty services can give someone the confidence they need to move forward in their life.
Our clients are beautiful people with rich, full stories. Sometimes it takes being reminded you are physically beautiful to see your inner potential.
