The Vine Hair are proudly a Sustainable Salon!
What does this mean?
As a business we are aware of the impact our waste can have on the environment. We have partnered with Sustainable Salons who have created an innovative way to cut down our waste in the salon and our impact on the environment. 95% of our salon waste is collected and separated into hair, paper, metal, plastic and chemicals. This waste is recycled or repurposed, keeping it out of landfill and in circulation for some incredible causes.
How is it recycled or repurposed?
HAIR SOAKS UP OIL SPILLS:
All the hair swept up in our salon is collected and put into a filter stocking which is called a hair boom. These are used all around the world to soak up thousands of litres of oil.
PAPER RECYCLED INTO NEW PAPER PRODUCTS:
Paper is an obvious one… but it can be recycled and repurposed multiple times. It is important to keep it in circulation and to recycle all magazines, paper, and cardboard.
METAL BUYS MEALS FOR THOSE IN NEED:
Our foil and colour tubes are collected and recycled into new aluminium products. Because metal is valuable sustainable salons are able to use the proceeds from the metal collected to donate meals to those in need through OzHarvest.
PLASTIC CAN BUILD PARK BENCHES:
Both hard and soft plastics are collected and kept out of land fill. They are recycled to build park benches and even prescription glasses frames.
CHEMICALS RECYCLED BACK INTO WATER:
Our excess chemical waste is collected and neutralised into recycled water which can be used for construction, community parks or manufacturing and keeps it out of our water ways.
What does this mean for your appointment?
$3 from each appointment is all it takes to be a part of this incredible scheme.
Thank you for helping us, help the environment!
