Setting up the next generation

It's only human to think about the future—for ourselves, our children and our communities.

Cutting hair—and shaping a legacy

Brothers Jermaine and Damian have seen firsthand how one generation can boost the next. After all, their barbershop franchise No Grease! has roots in their mother's career. Now they're paying it forward, helping over 3,000 barbers-to-be hone their entrepreneurial spirits and invest in their futures.
