On January 16, 2020, the blush-colored doors of The Curl Bar London officially opened for business. Then, on March 23, only a week after the natural hair salon’s two-month anniversary, owner Niá Pettitt had to shutter — London was going under lockdown due to COVID-19.
"Initially, I thought it would be a month, so I thought we’d reopen at the end of April," Pettitt tells
Allure. "But when it got to mid-April and there were still no announcements, that’s when I knew it’ll probably last until June or July."
