Our Story
OUR STORY
It’s not about us, it’s about them! Almost one-third of Illinois residents are considered poor or low income. Sadly, regular grooming has become a luxury, rather than a necessity. We want to change that! We hope you join us and become a part of our story.
When you choose to book an event with CHOP CHOP, for your company or brand, you also choose your impact. We’ll set aside a portion of the sales, to fund our mission, which is to provide complimentary services for the communities that need it the most. Children, women, and people of color have the highest poverty rates. Based on the numbers, we chose four communities to giveback to.

Creating happy, healthy, beautiful communities…
one haircut at a time.
“It was such an amazing surprise for families to have this spectacular opportunity! Families absolutely LOVED it! What a wonderful surprise for guests!”
“I really learned a lot from [Jay Barnett] yesterday at the CHOP CHOP event…just wanted to say thanks, I’m more disciplined and focused now.”
OUR WHY
CHOP CHOP was created out of a need to provide busy professionals and those with limited mobility a unique and innovative way to benefit from the affect personal grooming has on our well-being. That’s our story and we’re sticking to it! One thing we know for sure, refreshing one’s appearance with something as simple as a haircut, new hair style, a little makeup or polish change, positively impacts the way people think, feel and behave. We believe everyone should be afforded the opportunity to look and feel great, no matter their gender, race, age or socioeconomic status.
OUR MISSION

We not only provide those in need with beauty and grooming services, but access to resources, tools and opportunities that help aid in their professional growth and development.
