The Palms opened its doors in the heart of Peckham, South East London in 2019 – becoming the UK’s first dedicated Black hair and beauty destination, purpose-built for Afro hair, beauty and lifestyle start-ups. A unique Afrocentric retail space and community hub, The Palms exists as an innovative cultural enterprise and good practice model of urban renewal – offering subsidised and affordable rents, serving as a dynamic space for new and upcoming businesses, and providing a legacy home to the established community of independent Black hair stylists once located in nearby Blenheim Road.
