“Rarely, if ever, are any of us healed in isolation. Healing is an act of communion”

-Bell Hooks

Who we are

It all began with an idea.

Black Moon Bathhouse is a pioneering establishment founded with a profound purpose and a rich background deeply rooted in the principles of holistic wellness, community empowerment, and inclusivity. At its core, Black Moon Bathhouse aims to provide a sanctuary for women and fem-identified individuals to engage in deep self-care practices through a lens that celebrates Black, queer, and feminist perspectives. From its inception, Black Moon Bathhouse has been guided by a commitment to social justice, environmental sustainability, and the promotion of diverse perspectives. By harnessing the heat and steam from its steam sauna to cultivate herbs for its apothecary shop, BMB exemplifies its dedication to innovative, eco-conscious practices that benefit both its patrons and the planet.

At Black Moon Bathhouse, individuals can access a diverse range of wellness services, including steam rooms, infrared saunas, somatic bodywork and herbal products, all rooted in the principles of holistic healing and self-care. Through its offerings, BMB seeks to address the diverse needs of its clientele while fostering a sense of belonging and connection within the community.

With a focus on radical self-care and holistic wellness, Black Moon Bathhouse stands as a testament to the transformative power of intentional spaces designed to nurture the body, mind, and spirit. As it continues to grow and evolve, BMB remains steadfast in its mission to hold space for collective healing, self-discovery, and community among individuals of all backgrounds and identities.

So, will YOU be in community with US?

Coming in 2025 Now Fundraising

Black Moon Bathhouse is seeking to raise 1.5 million dollars in total.

75% of that capital raising is being solicited by accredited investors and grants and the other 25% crowdfunded by interested folks like yourself and smaller investors. We are taking this approach because we want to remain Black women-owned and co-op operated.

We are currently crowdfunding through I Fund Women with their rewards-based crowdfunding to raise $250,000.

Part 2: The Deets! Folks were confused on how this rewards-based crowdfunder works. So though I love chatting with you all and answering your questions, I took a page out of the good ol' teachers book and decided to answer for the class haha. If you still have questions feel free to DM us!

Things are MOVING over here at Black Moon Bathhouse and WE want you to be a part of it! We've added some new reward levels to the @ifundwomen crowdfunding page to be more accessible. I wanted to share with you all WHY we decided to go this route. Yes, we have investors and could've had the entire project funded through investor and traditional capital stacking but we chose to include the community, you all, for a reason. Third Spaces aren't built by banks they are built by the people. People who contribute to the environment they need and they see others around them needing. We aim to provide that opportunity to the community we serve, starting with this crowdfund page. We aim to close on our property in August with construction starting soon after that. So far your investments have helped us: buy merch to raise capital, pay our earnest money deposit and save for the 30% down required for our loan. When we reach our goal of $250K we will start construction on the greenhouse and outdoor bathhouse space. Oh, didn't know we were doing that did yah? Keep your eyes on your email for a sneak peek at the conceptual designs done by our architect @imani_lvrn of @rsvn.studio! If you're not subscribed to our email list I highly doubt you do. I promise you, you will MELT with the heat we'll be dropping soon 🫠! #platzas #detroit #bathhouse #sauna #blackmoonbathhouse #womeninbusiness #womensupportingwomen #somatictherapyworks 🎥: @sociallychrissy

We are STILL floating from Thursday's culminating event The Finale at @basblueus! Forever grateful to the Zero-to-One Fellowship program for the last 6 months of growth, support and investment. We wouldn't be where we are today without all the powerful women and non-binary folks we've met and worked with. The program allowed us to hire an architect @imani_lvrn of @rsvn.studio to provide the STUNNING conceptual designs we showcased at the event (keep your eyes on your email if you're subscribed to see as well). Meet amazing women who helped our Founder @eyeshaplease grow into the "Girl boss" she never wanted to be lol. (Thank you @sdalley of @bondingoverbooks.co , @ambirrm of @thehomegirlheadquarters, @samanthabarash of @tapintonutrition, @mami.deerest of @shoplito.co, @theclassyladyedition, @marquitarich of @sweetpawscreamery, @chifanle.chifanle & @jbs_icepops. Thank you all so much for voting on us to receive additional funding to bring BMB to us all! Lastly, network and have a community with fellow business owners and resources for small businesses. The word that keeps coming up is GRATEFUL. We look forward to the next 6 months and bringing you all along the journey with us! Turn your notifications on for future updates, events and fundraisers we'll be sharing! #womensupportingwomen #platzas #detroit #womeninbusiness #bathhouse #sauna #blackmoonbathhouse #womeninbusiness

We're a week late in celebrating but not a dollar short! We had the honor of pitching at the @lgbtchamber alongside @eastside.roasterz and @jpmakesandbakes . It was such a fun event and we made so many great connections with folks! Congratulations to JP on winning the $10k prize and thank you to the chamber for awarding us and @eastside.roasterz $2,500. $2,500 helps us finish paying our architect and funds towards our general contractor. As a small business every dollar counts and is appreciated.

Isn't she lovely?! 😍 Can't wait to share this sensory experience with you all 🥹 Remember all candle sales come with a FREE platza and supports the construction of the bathhouse! This scent was custom made by @eyeshaplease and woman-owned business @pennylo.det. #womensupportingwomen Are you excited to buy one?
