Satin Bonnets on TV, a collective of Black women entertainment industry professionals, will host their first Prom Salon on April 26 to support Black high school students in Altadena and surrounding Los Angeles areas who were affected by the Eaton Fires. The initiative aims to provide essential beauty services for students preparing for milestone events like prom and graduation.
“We believe there is strength in personal care and seek to provide opportunities to offer direct aid in our communities,” said a representative of Satin Bonnets on TV. “Our goal is to make a positive impact on the lives of these students by partnering with local businesses and providers to ensure they have the support they need for their milestone events.”
The event will take place at Borner’s Barber College at 1284 N Lake Ave. in Pasadena from 9 a.m. to 3 p.m., offering students complimentary beauty services including hairstyling, skin consultation, makeup application, and nail services. All attending students will also receive gift bags containing curated personal care products from partnered brands.
Satin Bonnets on TV has formed partnerships with several organizations for this initiative, including the Paul Mitchell Cosmetology School of Pasadena, Borner’s Barber College, WYN Beauty by Serena Williams, local cosmetology professionals, and a bevy of beauty brands.
The collective, which is dedicated to representation in media and empowering their respective communities, recognizes that personal care needs within marginalized communities are often overlooked. As part of their first community initiative, they aim to ensure students receive the support and dignity they deserve during these important life events.
