Strengthening Father-Daughter Bonds Through Hands-On Styling

By Sarah Frane Macaroni Kid York August 11, 2026

A hairstyle is rarely just about hair. For many young girls, it represents quality time, culture, confidence, and connection. Recognizing the power of these everyday moments, YWCA York is launching Fathers Fixing Crowns, a hands-on event designed to bring fathers and daughters closer together while equipping dads with practical styling skills.

The special interactive workshop takes place on Saturday, September 19, 2026, from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM at YWCA York.

The initiative aims to create a fun, supportive environment where fathers can learn the basics of hair care and styling—from simple detangling and braiding to creating everyday styles—while sharing meaningful quality time with their daughters. Beyond the combs and hair ties, the event focuses on building self-esteem in young girls and deepening paternal relationships.
