Hello, as you all know, I'm Taylor, owner of Taylor Fades.

I currently work as a barber, but recent law changes now require me to get a barber license in addition to my cosmetology license in order to continue using a straight razor—an essential part of my work and the services my clients rely on. With two kids under two, a husband in school, and the costs of running my own suite, going back to school comes with financial challenges. I’ll need to cover tuition, fees, and childcare while I attend classes, and right now that’s more than we can manage on our own. Any donation would directly help me keep doing what I love, stay compliant with new regulations, and continue providing for my family and clients. Your support truly means so much, and if you can't financially help, sharing my story will also help tremendously!
