Help Asheville & Western NC’s Hair Community Recover
Donation protected
11/30/2024 UPDATE: thank you to EVERYONE who has donated and helped us reach our goal! I have turned off the ability to receive any further donations as we have completed the GoFundMe transfer and processed + mailed out checks to the 15 salons that were affected by Helene. If you would like to still donate, please consider donating to the individual salons. Their names and Instagram handles are listed below. I have also added their own Go Fund Me links here:
Thank you again!

Hello friends! My name is Skip Fellers and I’m a salon owner here in Asheville, North Carolina. Last week our beautiful community was hit by one of the worst natural disasters our region has ever seen.
The destruction from Hurricane Helene has been absolutely devastating. There are entire towns that are now gone, dreams broken, lives lost, and many people still missing.
While we all wait for water and power to be restored (with no timeline on when that may happen), I am so grateful that my own salon (Neon Moon Salon) is still standing.
Sadly, these salons have suffered major devastation and may be forced to close their doors until they find new locations. (List will be updated as I hear of more)
Wink Salon: Biltmore Village location @winkasheville
Balm Salon @balmsalon
Ravin salon @ravinsalon
Rustic Ritual Beauty @rustic_ritual_beauty
Jenna Fulmer Hair @jennafulmer_hair
Ashes & Steele Studio @ashesandsteelestudio
Rocket Beauty Shop @rocketbeautyshop
Magnolia's Salon in Biltmore Village
Salon 337 in Morganton, NC
74 Mane Salon in Clyde, NC
Rae's of Joy in Clyde, NC
Goldie's Salon in Clyde, NC
Superior Cuts in Clyde, NC
This fund is raising money so I can reallocate the funding to the salons who need to rebuild + my own team of 4 that is out of work indefinitely.
If you can’t donate, please consider sharing our story to get the word out!
Asheville and all of Western North Carolina needs our hair community to show up for us in a big way!
