Trans man turned away from barbershops as they refused to cut 'women's hair'

A transgender man said he spent his youth being refused short haircuts by hairdressers due to his perceived sex.

Chace-Jordan Rowlands, 44, said he was constantly turned away from both salons and barbershops at the beginning of his transition, as women's salons were reluctant to cut his long hair and barbers refused to cut "women's hair".

He is now offering free haircuts to trans and non-binary people who may have faced similar struggles in the past.
