FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
MindBodyHair Salon Calls for a 'Local' Blackout of Black Friday, Champions Bronx Artisans Over Big Box Stores
BRONX, NY - November 13, 2025 - Ebony Hayes, Owner of MindBodyHair Salon, is directly addressing the nationwide call to 'Blackout Black Friday' by urging consumers to redirect their holiday spending from corporate chains to local entrepreneurs. The salon is hosting its Second Annual Black Friday Artisan Affair, transforming the traditionally consumerist day into a celebration of community commerce.
Instead of navigating the impersonal chaos of mass retailers, shoppers are invited to the salon at 1446 Williamsbridge Road on Friday, November 28th, from 11:00 AM to 5:00 PM to shop products that offer a direct economic impact to the Bronx community.
The one-day marketplace provides a conscious shopping alternative, featuring a diverse array of local creators, including:
• Unique Handmade Goods: Crocheted items, custom made hats and bags, hand-poured candles, and intricate crystals and beaded jewelry.
• Local Literature: Small press books and poetry from Bronx-based writers.
"The message is clear: people are tired of the chaos, oppression and want their Black Friday dollars to mean more," said Ebony Hayes. "This event is our way of answering the call for a boycott. We are asking our community to black out the big boxes and instead, light up local businesses. Every purchase made here directly supports a Bronx artist, not a distant corporate CEO."
In addition to supporting the artisans, MindBodyHair Salon will offer special promotions to thank shoppers for choosing local:
• Salon Promotions: 20% off all in-store natural hair care products and a complimentary deep-conditioning treatment upgrade with any service booked at the event for a future date.
The Black Friday Artisan Affair is free to attend, offering a festive, low-stress environment where shoppers can find unique, meaningful gifts while keeping their money circulating within the community.
