CapeTown DMV provides free hair & beauty services while creating pathways to employment, entrepreneurship, and licensure.

Building confidence, restoring dignity, and uplifting our community—one service at a time.

🌧️ Rain or shine, the mission continues.

The weather may have changed throughout the evening, but our commitment never did.

CapeTown DMV was proud to be at Late Night Hype at Bald Eagle Recreation Center, continuing to provide free grooming and beauty services that help young people show up feeling confident, seen, and valued.

For us, a haircut, hairstyle, or beauty service is about more than appearance—it’s about restoring confidence, creating positive experiences, and reminding every young person that they matter.

Thank you to everyone who braved the weather, partnered with us, volunteered, and trusted us to serve your community. We remain committed to showing up with excellence because our youth deserve nothing less.

💈✨ Building confidence. Strengthening community. One service at a time.

We like starting sh… 🤪
But really, we like starting shapeups.
25 fresh starts…

More than haircuts, this is confidence being restored, dignity being respected, and people getting a real shot at their next step.

For the 4th year in a row, CapeTown DMV showed up to make sure when opportunity meets preparation, our people are ready.

Shoutout to Anacostia River Church for organizing and inviting us back for the 4th year in a row.
