YOU CAN BE THE CHANGE THE HAIRDRESSING INDUSTRY NEEDS
RECYCLE SALON WASTE INTO SALON PROFITS
Break free from landfill-bound waste through your council or commercial services. Embrace a greener, more sustainable future for the hair and beauty industry with Green Salon Collective's hair and metal waste recycling solutions.
HOW IT WORKS
Green Profits
How much will going green cost you, or bring in to your business?
Green Salon Collective member salons charge a small, optional £1-2 Green Fee to generate enough revenue to cover their salon waste recycling costs, and often make a profit.
The majority of GSC salons choose to reinvest their Green Profits into sustainability initiatives, by buying ecohead showerheads, using Replant towels, buying plants for the salon, donating to local charities or doing even more recycling and composting.
Use the calculator below to estimate the amount of Green Profits you'll generate through salon waste recycling, depending on the % of clients you think would pay a small £1-2 Green Fee...

Our member salons, on average, picked up 3 new clients in the first 3 months just because they are on our Member Locator. By being a more eco-friendly hair salon, you're catering to a new clientele who are passionate about the planet.

ABOUT GREEN SALON COLLECTIVE
Our key goal is to recycle and reuse hairdressing salon waste, focusing on specialist items like hair and metal, so that your business can become a more sustainable salon. We use hair in over 10 different ways, including cleaning up oil spills, and donate all our profits from recycling metals. We compost salon towels. We generate energy from chemical waste and PPE. So far, we've diverted over 100 tons of hairdressing salon waste from landfill or incineration.

WE RECYCLE OUR PROFITS, TOO!
We believe in making a difference where it counts which is why we choose to share the love.
