Veterans can receive free haircuts, facials and manicures at the Academy of Hair Design in Springfield on Nov. 11 as part of the school's annual Veterans Day tradition. The services will be available from 8:30 a.m. to 5 p.m. at the academy, 1834 S. Glenstone Ave., according to a community announcement.

In the past year, the Academy of Hair Design has provided free haircuts to more than 2,700 veterans and first responders, according to the announcement. “We are a family-owned, values-based business,” co-owner Christie Gonzales said in the announcement. “ ... and I can think of no better way to enhance that mission than by helping those who have done so much for all of us.” The event comes as the Academy of Hair Design approaches its 30th anniversary training students.

Photo captures how one Shoshone family kept traditions in the Ozarks

Dan and Kathy DeLane, along with their daughters Concha and Rena (pictured in this 1981 photograph), ventured to the Ozarks from the Shoshone reservation in Wyoming with a dream, which was coming to fruition through a cattle farm in southern Dallas County, Missouri. Dan and Kathy made it important to keep Shoshone traditions central as they raised Concha and Rena in a majority Anglo-Saxon world. Much of the children’s day-to-day practice of keeping traditions alive showed up in how they wore their hair, the adornments on their clothing, and how they balanced traditional cultural practices with learning about their new culture in the Ozarks. This image is part of a much larger collection of historically rich photographs from the News-Leader’s photo archive. Each week, the Springfield-Greene County Library will tap into this vast collection and present an interesting image “from the darkroom" and share its history. This image is presented in partnership between the Springfield-Greene County Library District and the Springfield News-Leader.
