Thelma — Distinct Hair Salon Recorded July 1, 2026. Edited excerpts from her audio testimonial. Thelma is the founder’s mother; JustPop! funded ads and provided financial support. Back in January of 2026, I told my assistant, the only employee I have, I said, we may have to close. I started also applying for companies such as JetBlue, Marriott, hotels, thinking I need to have income somehow. I was able to achieve it, but JustPop! kept paying for the ads and giving me extra money to survive. And now in June, I was close to $11,000 in one month. beautiful people that come in, they paid, and they're not hassling. They're not asking me for discounts. They're not disrespecting my experience and my, my values or the prices. I cannot emphasize enough how great JustPop! is. It gave me my life back.
