Shortly after announcing that they would close, Astor Place Hair has reported that some awful people out there created a fake Go Fund Me account to “raise money to save Astor Place Hair,” when in fact, these people do NOT represent Astor Place Hair and really were looking to just pocket the money and be evil. It’s enraging and so disheartening to see that people can stoop so low and be so dirty to exploit a New York institution’s pain and suffering just so that they can get some extra pocket money.
With the current pandemic, the political climate, the heightened racial injustice, and now this, I’m really at my wits end with the human species.
