YUMA, Ariz. (KYMA, KECY) – A local barber is holding a grand opening ceremony Saturday for a more inclusive experience for kids with autism and sensory sensitivities.
The grand opening for the sensory studio starts at at 6 p.m. at Royalty Barber Studio, located at 1799 South First Ave in Yuma, behind the Staples.
KYMA spoke with Jose Landeros, who is the owner of Royalty Barber Studio, who says he’s opening the studio after seeing the challenges his nephew faced during haircuts.
“I just thought to myself, ‘What can I do to make the experience for these parents easier in any way?'” Landeros said.
Sam Kirk will have the full story later this evening.
