Afro Hair and Beauty shops to remain open during any lockdown period.

Rejected 21 signatures

What the petition asks

I want the government to ensure that shops that sell afro hair and beauty products are classified as essential and remain open during any future lockdown periods. Afro hair and skin requires products that are not widely available in supermarkets and without these products our hair and skin suffers!
