What are we asking?
→ Be in San Diego and attend The Great Cut on 3/16/19
→ Work a 4-hour volunteer shift doing basic haircuts
→ Promote your participation in this world record attempt!
What are the details?
- You’ll cut hair during one of three cutting groups: “Morning,” “Afternoon,” or “Evening.”
- You’ll have a cutting station, where Hair Donors will come to get their hair cut.
- When arriving at your station, donors will choose between several basic haircuts, from medium length hair to buzz cut.
- You’ll tie the donor’s hair into ponytail(s), and cut them off for donation.
- You'll have 30 minutes for each cut, so you’ll have time to “clean them up,” to look as presentable as you’re able with the time and tools available.
What do you need to bring?
Bring your own 1) shears and 2) clippers/trimmers (one electrical outlet will be available at your cutting station).
Everything else will be provided: combs, brushes, sanitizing solution and spray, rubberbands, capes, sanek strips and spray bottles with water.
Bonus features
- You are welcome to hand out your business card or even book appointments with donors.
- You will be credited as a participant in the Guinness World Record and receive an individually numbered commemorative coin.
- You’ll be listed as a certified cutter from The Great Cut at thelonghairs.us.
- We are offering group rates for salons and barber shops that register together.
Why are we asking you to pay to come and cut hair?
It can cost up to $5,000 to provide one child with a hair replacement, which is why part of our goal is to raise $200,000.
There is also a significant cost to producing this event, which your registration fee will help pay for. In addition, you’ll still receive a gift bag, worth the price of admission by itself. On top of that you’ll have a full day of live entertainment, fraternization and general merriment to enjoy.
All proceeds from The Great Cut will benefit Children With Hair Loss.
So why should you do this?
- Help provide 200 children like Daelyn with a hair replacement, confidence and a sense of normalcy in life.
- Be part of a Guinness World Record—when else are you going to do that?
- Come to a crackin party in San Diego.
