You can't hardly send the kids back to school without a new back-to-school haircut.

So why not get the job done for free?

JC Penney hair salons are offering free cuts the entire month of August for kids in kindergarten through sixth grade.

The free cuts are at every JC Penney salon across the country.

Schedule an appointment in advance at 855-JCP-KIDS.

For every free haircut, JC Penney will donate $1 to the Boys & Girls clubs of America -- up to $50,000.

Through March 2, Great Clips hair salons are offering a deal on haircuts.

At participating salons throughout the Triangle, all haircuts are $5.99 -- no coupon clipping required.
