A studio

A sanctuary

A spark for change

Hidden inside the walls of an old East London printworks, Mash Creative Studio is a zero-waste, inclusive space for all kinds of creatives. Founded in 2024 by award-winning hairdresser Ashleigh Hodges, Mash was built to be more than a workspace — it’s a home for hairdressers, freelancers, educators, and brands who want to create, connect, and thrive.

Described as an incubator for ideas and artistry, Mash is both a place to make and a place to belong. Whether you’re looking for a chair to work from, or a full studio to host shoots, seminars, or events, Mash is designed to welcome you.

We are proudly brand-neutral, zero to landfill, and fiercely inclusive. Neurodivergent? LGBTQ+? From any walk of life? Here, you’re seen, valued, and celebrated.

Mash is a statement of values — a place where creativity and responsibility meet. Sustainability and community fuel every decision we make, and every booking helps us give back, not only to the industry but to the people reshaping it.

At Mash, a chair or a studio isn’t just a rental — it’s an entry into a creative community.
