In this episode, Sustainable Salons takes centre stage as a transformative force in the hair and beauty industry. Operating on a subscription-based membership model, the program diverts an impressive 95% of salon waste from landfill, amounting to over 1.7 million kilos to date. The initiative facilitates easy implementation of sustainable practices in salons of all sizes, providing collection bins and ensuring responsible disposal of plastics, metals, hair clippings, paper, chemicals and more.
Salon owners Natalie from Hair by I and Amy from Eltham Cosmetic Clinic share their personal experiences, motivations, challenges and the positive impact of transitioning to the Sustainable Salons program. The podcast sheds light on customer responses, financial considerations and future sustainability goals, providing valuable tips for businesses aspiring to become more environmentally conscious.
