Fleur de Lis Salon Attempts Guinness World Record
The salon is going for the world record for most money raised for a charity through haircuts in a 24-hour period.
Â
Fleur de Lis Salon will participate in a global 24-hour cut-a-thon on Earth Day, April 22 from 1-6 p.m. Aveda stylists in salons worldwide, from Tokyo, to Sydney, Moscow, London, New York and Barrington, Ill., will volunteer their time to offer children 12 and under haircuts in return for a $20 donation to Earth Month. The aim is to set a Guinness World Record for most money raised for a charity by haircuts in a 24-hour period.
Fleur de Lis Salon and Shizoku Skin have set a fundraising goal of $600. The event is part of a global effort by the Aveda network of Beauty professionals to raise $5 million for clean water in April 2013.
