Helping give free haircuts to kids heading back to school and stocking them up with school supplies
Visiting a local school’s career day to help inspire students to dream big and view the trades as a launch pad for their future
Setting up at a local job fair and giving complimentary cuts to job seekers so they are ready for their next interview

Are you sponsoring a local event? Contact us if you’d like our student barbers or beauty specialists to participate and give back alongside you.

Learn More About JT’s Cuts Academy

JT’s Cuts Academy was built to help students build the technical skills, industry savvy, and real client experience they need to succeed in a future career in barbering or beauty. Each student who enrolls with us receives a professional-grade kit, branded backpack, and a JT’s uniform so they feel shop-ready from day one. In the classroom, they tackle theory before putting it into practice with paying clients, under the supervision of licensed instructors who work alongside students.

Our Mission & Vision

Our mission is to deliver quality, accessible education for students pursuing technical careers in the beauty industry. We aim to be recognized for graduating highly qualified professionals ready for immediate employment, and we do it in a culture that treats every student like family.

How We Teach

Lectures, mannequin practice, and one-on-one coaching lead to practicing services on real clients. Between services, students interact with an engaging curriculum and participate in trivia challenges. We want to teach students how to take care of clients by building both their technical skills and their customer service confidence.

Flexible by Design

With day and evening classes available, we match the commitment of our students with dedicated instructors, pro-grade tools, and a working shop floor. Show up ready to hustle, and we’ll match you step-for-step.
