According to the Brand Manager, Lush Hair, Ms. Sukhm Pannu, we are delighted to collaborate with the Lagos State Ministry of Women Affairs and Poverty Alleviation on this empowerment project and we hope that this will lead to a lasting and sustainable relationship. As a brand whose core target is women, we will always strive towards assisting the women-folks while also encouraging them to be confident and always stay on top of their game irrespective of their background and societal status.

Also, having undergone different stages of trainings under a very close supervision of the Ministry, we believe they would have acquired the right amount of skill required for them to perform excellently on the task ahead.
