STERLING, Ill., Aug. 12, 2026 /PRNewswire/ — On Monday, Aug. 31, 2026, 50 barbers will provide free haircuts to an expected 500 people at the 5th annual No Hair Left Behind event presented by Wahl®. The men’s grooming leader will park its 20-foot mobile barbershop at the Connecticut Convention Center from 9 a.m. – 3 p.m. (EDT), and for every FREE haircut Wahl® will donate $100 to support the charity, up to $5,000. It’s all part of the company’s commitment to spread goodwill and good grooming through the Wahl® Cuts for a Cause initiative.
The event is a labor of love from local barber, Miguel Delvalle. Delvalle, who once struggled with homelessness, worked his way up to opening a barbershop in Hartford, CT, in 2020. His path took a prophetic turn when he realized his shop was next to a homeless shelter. As he was getting the shop ready to open, men from the shelter would stop by for a free haircut. Word of his generosity soon spread and increased demand for free haircuts led him to launch the first No Hair Left Behind event, and eventually to establish his own 501(c)(3) charity Scissor Society, Inc.
According to Delvalle, the event is about so much more than free haircuts. “A fresh cut can make you feel like a new person, but it takes much more to help people improve their lives,” he explained. “This is why we’re also providing a number of resources like health screenings, employment opportunities and social support to individuals who want it.”
Delvalle also credits the volunteer barbers for not only offering their time, but for opening their hearts. “There’s a bond between a barber and their client, you can’t help but share stories and glean inspiration from one another,” said Delvalle. “No Hair Left Behind is a day centered on dignity, hope, and connection and provides full-circle benefits to the entire community.”
