Joe’s Cares is a way for our salon and spa to take time to give back. We support several local and nationwide charities, as well as run our own wig program to help those going through tough times medically and financially. Shown below are just a few things we’ve done over the years to give back.
Joe’s Salon has created a Free Wig Fund. This fund allows us to offer wigs to those in need at little to no cost.
Joe’s stocks wigs, hairpieces, and hair extensions; all available in synthetic or human hair. We have stylists trained for wig fitting, cutting, and coloring. Our stylists are certified in the application, styling and overall care of these hair pieces.
For clients that are experiencing hair loss due to cancer treatments, medical issues, or genetics, we have every type of hairpiece to help. To make you as comfortable as possible, we have a private area in our salon where we offer these services.
We are dedicated to those affected by cancer. Your experience here will brighten your day and make you feel beautiful!
