Queer Cuts

Inspired by the incredible success of The University of Utah Black Cultural Center's annual 'Barber Talks,' Queer Cuts invites skilled barbers and hairstylists from our local sponsor Lucero Hair & Wellness. Our amazing stylists from Lucero will be coming to campus  to provide free gender-affirming haircuts for students. We will also have loctitians & braiders available for consultations!
