A recent report in The Lancet highlights a staggering $1.5 trillion plastics crisis affecting our health and the planet. At Salon Business Solutions, we’ve been committed to sustainable hair care since we launched 4 years ago, and we know that change is essential, we’re asking hair and beauty professionals to join us and take a stand!
Plastic production has skyrocketed more than 200 times since 1950, especially with single-use plastics. This crisis is linked to health issues affecting people of all ages and costs us over $1.5 trillion each year in health-related damages. Plastic is a serious threat that we must address now. At Salon Business Solutions, we’re not just about sustainable products; we’re also taking action. Our warehouse uses non-plastic tape and avoids plastic infills for all orders, and we always recycle in our office.
We proudly partner with brands that share our commitment to eco-friendly practices. Our selection of vegan and cruelty-free hair products is perfect for salon owners and professionals wanting to make a positive impact. Plus, all our brands use no plastic or recycled/recyclable plastic. Here’s how some of them are tackling the crisis:
At Salon Business Solutions, we know that packaging matters. Many of our brands use PET, a recyclable material that supports a circular economy. However, not all parts, like black lids, are easy to recycle due to sorting issues and we recommend switching these out to your main waste.
We encourage you to help your clients by explaining which parts of packaging can be recycled. Awareness is key to reducing plastic waste and fighting the plastic pollution crisis.
As a salon owner or stylist, you can make a difference. By choosing sustainable products from our selection, you’re not just enhancing your services; you’re also joining a movement toward a reducing single use plastic.
Encourage your clients to recycle their product packaging and educate them on choosing sustainable options. Together, we can make a real impact.
At Salon Business Solutions, we’re more than just a product supplier; we’re dedicated to educating and creating a culture of sustainability in the hair and beauty industry. If you’d like to book an appointment to learn more about sustainability in hair care, leave us your details and we’ll be in touch shortly and one.
