Antidote Street Salon Manifesto

“Coming together to collaboratively set the standard allows us to hold ourselves accountable to creating the best possible experience for our customers!”

“How do we elevate the industry collectively to better serve our clientele and community?”

This Spring, we gathered together some of the UK’s leading afro hair salons to discuss how we might collectively improve the overall clientele experience. We explored the afro hair salon sector - what is has been, what it is now, and how it can be further elevated on all levels. This resulted in an agreement on core principles of service in a commitment of change. Read and share! We would love to see this take on a life of its own and inspire change!
