How can salons work to support trans clients
Mac McGregor is 57, and is a trans activist and educator
Growing up, he had zero exposure to the LGBTQ+ community, but from a very early age found that he didn't identify as a girl.
They got into martial arts, which allowed him to have an outlet to be more masculine and also to see more of the world.
Due to the regulations of the sport, Mac waited until his martial arts career ended before medically transitioning at the age of 42.
Once he began this journey, he started to look for queer- friendly salons that would welcome him and understand his needs.
Mac shares how there is a high rate of suicide in young LGBTQ people due to isolation, and there is a need for more mentors in the trans community.
He invites people to look at social conditioning and question what serves you and what doesn't.
