Studies have shown that maintaining a healthy physical appearance is crucial to building positive self-esteem in young children. With strong self-esteem, kids tend to have a more positive outlook on life, form healthier personal relationships, and are more likely to stick with tasks until they succeed. Good self-esteem has also been shown to increase courage and boost confidence in making healthy choices.

For this reason, we've launched the Kutz for Kids program, through which we provide free year-round haircuts to children from underserved families throughout the Durham, NC, community. Envisioned by Marcus himself, the  purpose of the program is to boost kids' social outcomes by helping  them maintain a healthy physical appearance, all while freeing their  families of the costs required for regular grooming needs. 

We're proud to offer Kutz for Kids in partnership with Signature Kutz  Barbershop, one of the leading barbershops in Durham. All program participants receive free haircuts year-round at Signature Kutz. Eligibility is based primarily on feedback we receive from Signature Kutz, school guidance staff, and our other community partners.
