Events
Our events are an extension of what Black Dagger stands for, community care, accessibility, and creating space for people to show up as themselves.
​
From in salon Gender Affirming Haircut Days and Pay What You Can offerings to in-salon education, we’re committed to making hair more inclusive and accessible. You can also find us at San Diego Pride, where we host a booth offering free gender affirming haircuts during the festival.
​
Everything we do is rooted in connection, support, and real impact, whether that’s giving back, sharing knowledge, or showing up for the community in tangible ways.

Free Gender Affirming Haircuts
Offered multiple times throughout the year, these days bring together Black Dagger stylists alongside local barbers and stylists who want to give back to the community. Appointments are first come, first serve, creating accessible entry points for those seeking gender affirming services. It’s about more than hair, it’s about being seen, supported, and leaving with something that truly reflects you.
San Diego Pride Festival
We’re honored to be part of San Diego Pride each year. You can find us in the Trans Pride Village, where we offer free gender affirming haircuts throughout the festival. What started as a small offering has grown into something much bigger, and we’re proud to continue showing up for the community in a real, tangible way.
In Salon Education
Education is at the core of what we do. From hosting classes with brands like Innersense, EVO, and Reuzel to teaching gender affirming techniques, we’re committed to pushing the industry forward. Our goal is to connect with more educators and students, creating a space where inclusive, real-world education continues to grow.
Pay What You Can
Hair should be accessible. These offerings are hosted individually by stylists throughout the year, so keep an eye out for when they’re announced. It’s a way to meet people where they’re at, making space for care, confidence, and self-expression without cost being a barrier.
