Jason Panda explained that “Many people have experienced personal and financial challenges in 2009 and with Christmas approaching Nylon wanted to give back to those is need.
Our staff wanted to offer people an escape, an opportunity to step away from their life for a short time and allow us to make them feel good about themselves and hopeful about the new year ahead.”
Panda and his staff at Nylon studio have opened the salon to people in need on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays throughout December.
The Nylon team is providing free hairdressing to a select number of people, offering a full colour, styled cut and Aveda product gifts to complete the experience.
