The hairdressing industry generates a significant amount of waste – from hair clippings and used foils to chemical-laden products and plastic packaging. But now, salons across the UK have a simple, cost-effective way to reduce their environmental footprint with Recycle My Salon, a non-for-profit dedicated recycling initiative designed specifically for hair professionals.
Recycle My Salon is led by the Hair & Beauty Suppliers Association (HBSA) and supported by a large number of companies within the hairdressing industry playing their part in fighting climate change.
Recyle My Salon is a cost-effective waste management service that helps salons, barbershops, and freelancers recycle their waste in an easy, hassle-free way, from as little as £40 per collection. Instead of sending hair, foils and aerosol cans to landfill, salons can now divert their waste into sustainable solutions, such as using transforming hair into compost.
Whether you run a large salon, a small independent studio, or work as a freelance hairdresser, Recycle My Salon provides tailored solutions to suit your needs. It offers a simple way for anyone eager to reduce their environmental impact in a simple and cost-effective way.
Recycle My Salon offers flexible pricing options to fit different budgets. The service provides collection bins, easy pick-up schedules, and certification to showcase a salon’s commitment to sustainability. Simply add a 50p or £1.00 ‘eco fee’ to each service to offset the cost of recycling your waste aluminium.
Recycling fact – scrunch your foil into a ball in the palm of your hand and then open your hand. If it stays scrunched up in a ball, it’s aluminium, but if it’s springs back up it’s made from plastic.
Recycling fact – In the UK we spray our way through 650 million aerosol cans every year – That’s roughly 27 in every household!
