Urban Outfitters has pulled a product called "Peachy Head Peach Shampoo for Suicidal Hair" after receiving outrage from customers.
The back of the bottle (still for sale by Anatomicals) expounds on the name:
Indeed, they included "depression" in this rather-long winded, ill-advised joke about suicide intended to sell shampoo. It also features a rather distressing image of a person falling from a cliff. According to Nylon, this further reflects that "Peachy Head "is a pun on Beachy Head, one of the U.K.’s most notorious suicide spots."

The Huffington Post has since reached out to the manufacturer and received a glorious non-apology in response. "We are naturally concerned if any of our bath and body items cause offence as this is never our intention," a spokesperson said. "However, we are an irreverent, fun brand with a sense of humour—something the world is often lacking in. This product is so obviously a tongue-in-cheek reference to hair and refers only to hair."
This is not the first time Urban Outfitters has dealt with such backlash. The company is currently in a legal battle with Navajo Nation, to whom they may owe millions of dollars. Here's our full story on that ongoing story.
