Dear Bare Bear Waxing Friends & Guests,
We stand together.
We stand together with our Black & Brown communities and everyone affected by our nation’s history of saying too much and doing far too little. The values we hold dear are diametrically opposed to the heinous racism that has continued to plague our country still to this today.
At Bare Bear Waxing, we have always promoted diversity and acceptance, self-love, tolerance, and inclusion. We have always gratefully served all ethnicities and will continue to build on that and improve where we can.
Now is the time to act. And any act big or small can make a difference - attend peaceful protests, donate, support minority led and owned businesses, seek resources to unlearn any systemic ideas regarding racism and privilege you might be holding on to (even unwittingly). Starting with ourselves is one important step we can do to expand our own mind and gain a wider perception and mindfulness of those we share this planet with. I understand that all lives must matter - but no lives can matter until Black Lives Matter.
Sincerely,
Ashley Jones
