Eco-Friendly
sustainable hairdressing
As we become more aware of how our personal choices impact our health and the environment, we strive to provide the very best hair care products and salon services to protect you, our team and our planet. We want our clients to feel confident they’re making a positive difference to our planet with every salon visit.
Sustainability is one of three core principles at the heart of our salon. We believe that everything we do should be safe, eco-friendly and sustainable. Since opening in 2017, we’ve transformed a number of our services and business practices to deliver a safe and increasingly sustainable customer experience.
In 2019, we were certified as a sustainable salon by Southampton University’s Eco Hair and Beauty project.
Green Salon
Collective Member
In 2021, we joined the Green Salon Collective, an organisation set up to reduce the environmental impact of hairdressing and encourage more eco-friendly practices in our sector.
As a member of the Collective, we’re committed to minimising our impact on the environment by embracing waste and becoming certified Carbon Neutral. All our waste is turned into renewable energy with zero waste going to landfill. To date we have saved 6 tonnes of CO2, planted 6 trees and invested in sustainable community projects in India.
How we minimise our environmental impact?
How we
minimise our environmental impact?
Being an eco-friendly, sustainable salon means we:
- Recycle, compost and recover hair, used metal foils, empty colour tubes and chemicals used in the salon
- Use Scrummi single-use biodegradable, fully compostable hair towels and capes
- Use Keune hair products which are all sulphate and paraben free, and produce great results using only natural and alternative cosmetic ingredients
- Choose ethically conscious products with 100% recyclable packaging
- Offer affordable So Pure product refills by Keune with maximum hair results and minimal impact to the environment
- Recycle your empty Keune plastic bottles for you if you don’t have recycling facilities at home
- Operate paperless systems with all data stored securely online
- Use a green electricity provider
- Source from sustainable tea, coffee and tasty treat providers
- Advise and educate clients on sustainable hair care practices.
What does this mean
for our clients?
A visit to our salon is the high-quality pampering and self-care experience that you and your hair deserve! We add a small £2 Green Fee to every customer’s bill, which covers a contribution towards helping us recycle the unrecyclable so zero waste goes to landfill. Consider it your way of showing your commitment to sustainable hair care practices and reducing your impact on the environment.
If you’d like to learn more about our eco-friendly approach, please ask one of our stylists next time you’re in the salon. It’s one of our favourite subjects to chat about!
