What does our audience think?
Abi,
Accounts Manager
The idea that you could purchase a wig as easily as a can of coke is amazing. THIS is what the future looks like!
Rianna,

Mushy London
As a black woman I can say that this business is essential! We are the biggest consumer of beauty but yet we lack accessibility and convenience. These vending machines will solve that! Can’t wait to have a collaboration with Mushy London in the future 💖

Our hair represents our path. It’s 9:30am I just left my pilates class and like always my edges are lifting. I have a brunch meeting with some clients at 10:15am. A quick stop by the vending machine would’ve saved my day.
Tudz,
Librarian & Content Creator
As someone with locs who loves experimenting with protective styles, I know firsthand the struggle of finding quality products that cater to our unique hair needs.This business idea is a game-changer; having convenient access to vending machines stocked with black hair products out and about in London would be amazing!
Celia,
Student
I’m happy to see that this service will allow us to access our products more easily. As a mixed-race woman, it’s a pain trying to find the right hair accessories and products where I live. Knowing that this will be available makes me happy.
Chris,
Project Manager
From a male perspective, I think it’s a cool and convenient idea. Sometimes I just need to grab a durag or travel sized hair brush to keep my waves on point and be on my way! Being able to get it on the go instead of needing a find hair shop will be helllaaaa useful!
Rose,
Animation Project Manager
As I work in a field that is not culturally diverse, there’s no one who I can ask to borrow hair gel or a comb when I have hair emergencies! Having a vending machine which sells black hair products near the office would be so helpful, I’d no longer worry about my baby hairs!
NickSilver,
Musician
Being able to just grab products quickly is everything, especially as men because we don’t get as large a range of hair products as women do because people think we don’t need it. Having long hair and maintaining it can be a headache, so knowing that help will be super accessible is sick!
Stephanie,
CEO & Founder of NNESAGA
I travel often for work and having a vending machine built by us for us, allows me to pick up essentials on the go without having to travel far and wide for it.
Nathan,
Chef
I’m always out and about, I can’t tell the number of times I’ve needed a hair band or a slick brush to just tidy up my look before a special occasion and found that the hair shops are closed. Having these vending machines dotted around the UK would be a lifesaver, reducing my chances of ever having a bad hair day again.
Emmanuelle,
HR Manager
The idea of purchasing afro hair care products via vending machines is very interesting as we’ll be able to adapt purchases according to our needs through accessibility.
