September 2012
YO people of Brooklyn, the surrounding boroughs, the Tri-State Area, infinity, and beyond:

WHO:
Hair Force One is a Brooklyn-based collective of queer kids with nice hair who want to spread the love, the fun, and the look. Over the course of four years, we found each other through friends, friends of friends, and the big, wide Internet. This year we finally found ourselves in the same city. It may have been the queer connection, it may have been the summer air, it may have been the five dollar beer-and-shot combo at Sweet Revenge, but whatever it was, the magic was instant. Besides general flyness, we found that something we all had in common was a penchant for cutting queer hair.
The next step seemed obvious: a pop-up barbershop, literally in our own backyard. Haircuts for an affordable price in a comfortable space with people you want to meet. It took the five of us four years to find each other — now you can find your crew in just one day.
MEET THE TEAM:
Katrina ‘KC Danger’ Casino
Emma ‘Tears for Shears’ Klein-Stropnicky
Scout ‘Dances With Scissors’ Riera
Zulai ‘Ace of Fades’ Romero
Jess ‘Buzz Lightshears’ Markowitz
And - if all goes well - we’re hoping to throw down once a month all year ‘round. Come through and support the cause so we can all keep coming back for more!
Mad love,
Hair Force OneJUST A REMINDER THAT THIS IS HAPPENING THIS SUNDAY OKAY BYE
