Ready to Make an Impact?
All new stylist applicants are required to attend an in-person informational interview and orientation. Please choose ONLY 1 date - there is no need to come to more than 1 orientation. Please note - while we do our best to place as many enthusiastic volunteers as possible, not all applicants will be selected. Our goal is to ensure the best fit and create a meaningful experience for everyone involved.
