STERLING, Ill. (Sept. 24, 2025) – On Wednesday, Sept. 24, 2025, hundreds of homeless and at-risk veterans gathered for the Southeastern Michigan Veterans Stand Down Event. In addition to amenities such as food, clothing, health screenings and counseling services, men’s grooming company Wahl® parked its 20-foot mobile barbershop at the event. For every FREE haircut or beard trim Wahl® donated $100 to support the charity, up to $5,000. Detroit native and NBA Hall of Famer, Chris Webber was also in attendance to engage with the veterans. The barbershop is a staple of the 106-year-old U.S. based company and is used to spread goodwill and good grooming through the Wahl® Cuts for a Cause initiative. 

“Far too many veterans out there are suffering. That’s why Wahl® is honored to support causes that help improve their quality of life,” said Zach Wyer, Senior Director of U.S. Marketing at Wahl® Clipper Corporation. “Free haircuts at great events like these, donated products, and financial contributions are some of the small ways Wahl® shows its dedication to our veterans.”

Wahl® is continuing its charitable efforts with the launch of the ANTHEM™ Series, a collection of hair clippers that embodies Wahl’s dedication to quality, heritage, and community impact. Sales from the Wahl ANTHEM™ Series will contribute to the Wahl® Cuts for a Cause initiative so efforts like this Stand Down event can keep going strong.
