Thank You, Locks 4 Rock

A huge shoutout to Jason Eller, Kings Room Barbershop and ALL of the caring individuals who helped with a successful Locks4Rock event!

From Jason Eller:

"Together, we raised $2,434 for Maggie's Wigs 4 Kids of Michigan and collected an incredible 38 hair donations!

19 people donated their hair during the event, and another 19 donated at Kings Room Barbershop leading up to Locks4Rock, helping provide one of the most valuable gifts possible to children experiencing hair loss.

Natural, untreated, long hair is incredibly difficult to come by and is essential for creating high-quality wigs. It's truly priceless, and every donation brings confidence and hope to a child who needs it 

A huge thank you to everyone who donated their hair, attended the event, volunteered their time, bid in the silent auction, made a financial contribution, and simply helped spread the word. It takes an amazing community to make an event like this possible 

Special thanks to our co-presenting sponsor Kings Room Barbershop, for continuing this tradition every few years and making Locks4Rock possible.

Thanks again to our great musical acts:

  • Teddy Brewer
  • School of Rock Grand Rapids House Band

Shoutout to Eric Zane for his intros, promos, and professional vamping. As well to Airborne Burritos for keeping everyone well-fed, and all of our volunteers who worked behind the scenes.

Finally, thank you to our sponsors for believing in this event and helping support Maggie's Wigs 4 Kids:

  • Kings Room Barbershop
  • Garage Bar and Grill 
  • Star Customs
  • The Party Bird Grand Rapids
  • GRKaraoke.com

Every haircut, every dollar, every volunteer, and every shared post helped make a difference! Thank you for making Locks4Rock VI such a special day. We can't wait to do it all again in a few years.

Until then... start growing!"  See all the event photos here: jasoneller.com/locks4rock-archive/2026
