IBW Donates to Hurricane Victims 2017

How Our Donation Works

Upon check-out, our guests often ask if they can leave a tip for our students. We explain that the “tip money” instead goes to our “education fund,” which enables the school to pay for top-industry leaders to teach our students advanced techniques in beauty and wellness.

Starting today, all the education fund donations will be put towards The Salon and Spa Relief Fund to help the victims of hurricanes.

All donations will end Tuesday, September 19th.
