About
Clients having services provided to them don't usually think about it everday, but a huge amount of tools needed to make them feel and look great eventually ends up in landfills at the end of their service. Yes, even hair! Hair color, hair clippings, foil, metal, and so much more are all that contribute to pollution. Nowadays, businesses are more mindful of how they dispose of things but not every provider has the resources for the perfect system for their waste. However, there is a solution: a company called Green Circle Salons has programs dedicated to recycling and reducing salon and spa waste. Bella Salon ATX is one of Austin's most renowned salons, and luckily for Austinites, they are a zero waste salon by working with Green Circle.
How is salon waste being reduced at Bella?
Bella prioritizes environmental consciousness and awareness at their salon. 95% of their salon waste is recycled. The salon has a full waste system that requires providers to separate all waste that is produced during a service and recycle them in bins catered to them. This not only applies to salon products, but they make sure clients' trash is collected to properly recycle as well. The salon recycles efficiently and makes sure everything gets sent to Green Circle Salons accordingly. Bella collects this waste for each service, and sends it out every week -- all the way to Canada!
