Get the Community Support You Need to Manage Your Scalp or Skin Condition
Why HEROES?
When you step into a salon, it should be a place where you can be pampered and feel amazing about yourself. But we understand that dealing with plaques or flakes or hair loss can sometimes make you feel self-conscious or embarrassed.
We believe that everyone deserves to feel confident and comfortable in their own skin, regardless of any chronic illness or skin condition.
Join the Global Healthy Living Foundation (GHLF) community, where you’ll find a supportive and understanding space. We offer free, helpful resources and information on getting a proper diagnosis, managing symptoms, and becoming an empowered patient. GHLF is here to help you help yourself and others. Make a difference by nominating your stylist or barber to join HEROES (Health Education + Reliable Outreach + Empathetic Support). Click here.
Let’s keep in touch as we work to transform salons and barbershops into places of knowledge, understanding, and comfort for everyone living with skin and scalp conditions.
