We love VIKA! We know you do, too!

Donation protected
We love Virginia and we have for nearly 15 years now! We have supported wholeheartedly VIKA Salon in Berkeley, CA since she opened well over 10 years ago. 

We know others find her work amazing and skillful.  Her spirit is warm and authentic.  Just the kind of person you want to visit with when you're getting your hair done.  She feels like a part of the fabric of our family and we care about her deeply. We hope and pray she can care for herself during the COVID-19 pandemic. If there was ever a time to make sure she accepts that tip, this is it.  

We know there are many of you out there who share a wonderful connection with Virginia. She works hard, she provides a great service, and she only takes what she needs if that to make sure the business she has built stays afloat. 

So we're going to lean on word of mouth to spread this ask around.  Please pass this along so that we can support her business during this difficult time and give her some peace of mind. There may be a some government support down the line for small businesses like hers but the need is now and it's actually always been there. Every size contribution helps. Let's show her our love and give her one big fat tip together!

We write this with a deep sense of admiration and appreciation for what Virginia Perez has built and we celebrate her 10+ years of service to our community.
