鈥淲e really created this event to further the bond between father and daughter. Often dads feel vulnerable when asking questions when comes to hair so we wanted to create safe space where dads can ask for help,鈥 Loyal Wooldridge Owner of Loyal Hair said.

The Loyal Hair team will be teaching fathers how to have confidence while styling their daughter鈥檚 hair in the morning before school and will be donating all funds raised to the Better Together campaign to build JoeAnna鈥檚 House, a home away from home for families to stay while their loved ones receive advanced medical care at 91大黄鸭 General Hospital.
