About Us
Mission for Cuts 4 Christ
The mission of the Cuts 4 Christ mobile ministry is to share God's love and message while offering free essential salon services to impoverished individuals in the Greater Bangor area.
Inspired by our faith and guided by the principle of serving others, we see each haircut as an opportunity to connect and foster dignity and respect. By bringing our services directly to those who need them, we strive to not only meet immediate needs, but also to uplift lives and build a supportive community.
Our dedicated team of salon professionals are invited to host free salon events at locations that provide services to the underprivileged members of our community. Our goal is to offer not just a trim, but a boost of confidence and a touch of care to those who need it most.
Join our volunteers and professional in our mission to blend beauty with faith!

Services
"Free salon services offer more than just a trim; they enhance appearance and boost confidence."
Mobile Hair Washing
Bringing mobile hair washing directly to the people who need this service is an example of a community-focused initiative that addresses essential needs.
Haircuts
Cuts4Christ offers free haircuts and hair styling. Volunteers engage in one-on-one conversations, offering a listening ear while sharing an uplifting Christian message.
Nail Care
Volunteers of Cuts4Christ are the hands and feet of Jesus Christ. While a manicure may build self-esteem, a Christian conversation lifts the spirit.
Foot Care by Firm Foundations Foot Care
Walking a mile in someone else's shoes" is a powerful metaphor for empathy. Only through Christian conversation can we learn about another person’s experiences, feelings, and struggles and see things from their perspective.
Female Massages by Peaceful Gal Massage Therapy
Just as Christ reached out to heal and uplift those in need, April Dodge of Peaceful Gal Massage seeks to offer physical relief and emotional comfort to those who may not otherwise have this experience.
Clothing
When you look good, you feel good. Everyone deserves to be the best version of themselves. Feeling good and looking good is a confidence booster. When you love yourself, only then can you love others.
Hygiene Items
Donate personal hygiene items like soap, towels, deodorant, shampoo, nail polish, feminine care products, shaving creme, and more to support personal well being.
Bibles / Prayer
Providing Bibles and Christian literature is a way that Cuts4Christ volunteers can share their faith and offer support. For many, accessing spiritual resources might be challenging due to life circumstances. Distributing these materials could serve as a source of hope, comfort, and inspiration.
Community Partners
"Partnering with local organizations and businesses allows us to expand our resources and community outreach, creating a supportive network for those we serve. Cuts4Christ benefits significantly from its partnerships, volunteer efforts, and individual donations."
Community Donors
"Collaborating with local businesses helps Cuts4Crist access essential resources. Mobile salon services, powered by volunteers bring professional hair cutting and hair styling services directly to the homeless. Access to items such as soap, shampoo, toothpaste, and deodorant helps individuals maintain personal hygiene, which is essential to one’s overall health and well-being."
