Cutting hair & salon waste

Hairhouse X Sustainable Salons rescue and recycle salon waste to reduce our impact on the planet and give back to our local communities.

Up to 95% of the resources used during your visit are diverted from landfill and sent for recycling thanks to our partnership with Sustainable Salons.
