Evergreen Beauty College’s 2026 Back to School Event: Free Beauty Services for K-12


Evergreen Beauty College’s Back to School Event is back!

Back to school is almost here, and Evergreen Beauty College wants to make sure every kid walks into that first day feeling their absolute best.

On Wednesday, August 19, every EBC campus across Washington State is opening its doors for a free back-to-school beauty event for K–12 students. Any child in grades K-12 can come in and receive a free haircut, a free mini facial, and a free mini manicure. In this event, no appointment is needed and walk-ins are welcomed!

Spots fill up fast, so we recommend coming early to make sure your child gets a turn!

What Your Kids Get for Free

This August we are offering three complimentary services to any student enrolled in elementary, middle, and high school. Whether your child needs a quick trim or just deserves a little something special, we have them covered!

Free Haircuts. A clean, fresh cut before the first day of school. Our cosmetology students are ready to deliver.

Free Mini Facials. A gentle, relaxing skin treatment that will have your child glowing before they step foot in a classroom.

Free Mini Manicures. Because nothing says “ready for school” like polished, put-together nails.

All services are performed by EBC students under the supervision of a licensed professional. These are trained students working in a real salon environment with professional products and sanitation standards.

Why EBC Does This

At Evergreen Beauty College, we believe beauty has the power to make people feel seen, valued, and confident at any age. Sending a kid into a new school year with a fresh cut and a little extra confidence is something EBC cares about, and this event is a small way we get to show that.

Events like this are also an opportunity for our students to develop their skills by building hands-on experience on the services they provide. Whether it is a second grader getting a trim before their first day or a high school senior heading into their last first day ever, our students show up ready to make that moment count.
