Regis to host one-day haircutting event in support of breast cancer research


This year, the American Cancer Society estimates over 230,000 new cases of invasive breast cancer will be diagnosed in women.

On Saturday, October 1, 2011, over 7,400 Regis Corporation (NYSE: RGS) corporate salons across the country will host a one-day haircutting event in support of breast cancer research. You can help raise $1 million in the fight against breast cancer by getting a haircut on that day; 10% of proceeds from each haircut will go to the Regis Foundation for Breast Cancer Research.

The Saturday haircutting event also kicks off Regis Corporation's annual, month-long Clip for the Cure campaign. Throughout October, which is National Breast Cancer Awareness month, participating salons are offering additional fundraising opportunities. For example, 10% of net proceeds from the sale of private label products, including customer favorites like DESIGNLINE®, Cost Cutters Professional, and MasterCuts' M|C line, will be donated directly to the Foundation. Customer and business donations will also be accepted and limited edition pink products, including $1 breast cancer awareness pins, will be available for purchase.
