Why salons prefer Sustainable Salons
Annette Morgan
We are proud to be a Sustainable Salon. A lot of our clients come to us specifically because they're looking for a salon that aligns with their values and wants to be part of something bigger.
Daniel Krausert O’Connor
The Sustainable salons team worked with me on tailored bin solutions to ensure the best placement throughout the salon and devised a layout perfect for my salon needs.
Jean-Francois Carre
The team are really keen to be a part of Sustainable Salons. Our team is a younger generation, and they expect the business to be progressive and provide a sustainable work environment.
Emma Buxton
Our salon has been a Sustainable Salon for 4 years now and we have never looked back! We love the fact that we recycle 95% of our waste in salon and our clients do too. The rewards points are such a great bonus, we can order our essentials like toilet paper, hand towels & cleaning products using points only, all while keeping our footprint to a minimal. It's a win win really.
Lauren Radcliffe
We get quite a few new clients through the Sustainable Salons website, people that are looking for somewhere to cut off their hair and donate their ponytails.
Margaret Hennessy
Our customers and our staff care deeply about the future and the impact we have on our communities. Having a sustainable partnership with Sustainable Salons means that we can minimise our stores footprint. We are inspired by innovation that enables us to collect dog hair from our salons to assist in oil clean-up projects in addition to recycling plastics, paper and metals. Every pooch contributes too!
Charlene Fernandez
My staff and clients love that we're a Sustainable Salon. It's not just a fab or trending...it's very real and matters for our future. To know we're apart of the program is really special.
Jaye Edwards
At EdwardsAndCo, our clients are conscious consumers, so being able to tell them that we are a Sustainable Salon helps us to develop more meaningful relations with them. From a business sense, Sustainable Salons offers a rewards system that we can use to purchase sustainable products and salon supplies, which is amazing support for us.
Pip Marshall
After Google, the Sustainable Salons directory is our next biggest source of new clients!
Kelly Wright
Sustainability is so important to salons and barbers in our local Waverley area. Sustainable Salons makes being Sustainable so easy, so if you're not, you should!
Kass Hunter
Our clients love that they can do their bit. They can come to a salon, and they know they are doing something for the planet.
Karen Maxted
We are blown away with how much we can recycle. We love that we can recycle soft plastics as this is something we still can’t recycle in our region. The amount that we send away each week is mind boggling when compared to before the program.
Riki Arras
Partnering with Sustainable Salons has been a game-changer for us at Fellow & Fox. Their program has supported us every step of the way on our sustainability journey, making it easier to turn our values into real, measurable action.
What we love most is how simple they make it to do the right thing. From recycling foils, plastic, and colour tubes to repurposing hair clippings and supporting community initiatives, Sustainable Salons has helped us reduce our salon waste massively, and our clients notice and appreciate it too.
Samijo Cranney
Sustainability is at the heart of everything we do at Edge Hairdressing. Being based on Tamborine Mountain, where the environment is such a key part of our lifestyle, joining the Sustainable Salons program was a natural decision. A growing number of our clients have found us through the Sustainable Salons directory because they want their salon visits to align with their values.
