The Sustainable Beauty: Butchers Salon’s commitment to Eco-friendly Practices
At Butchers Salon, we believe that beauty shouldn't come at the expense of the planet. Our commitment to sustainability extends beyond the scissors and hairdryers to every aspect of our salon operations. We're proud to share with you the eco-friendly initiatives that make Butchers hair salon a beacon of green beauty in the heart of our community.
Green Salon Collective Partnership
One of our proudest initiatives is our partnership with Green Salon Collective, an organization dedicated to transforming salon waste into environmental solutions. At Butchers Salon, we ensure that every strand of hair, dirty foil, and empty colour tube finds a new purpose. Thanks to Green Salon Collective, our cut hair is recycled in an astonishing 10 different ways, while our used foil and colour tubes are given a second life as new foil. By participating in this programme, we contribute to a circular economy that minimizes our environmental footprint.

Compostable and Biodegradable Towels by Scrummi
Say goodbye to traditional towels that contribute to landfill waste! We've embraced the future of salon hygiene with Scrummi's compostable and biodegradable towels. Made from sustainable wood pulp, are vegan and certified compostable! These towels not only provide a luxurious experience for our clients but also break down naturally within 12 weeks, leaving behind no trace of environmental harm.

LED Light Fittings
Step into a brighter and greener future at Butchers Salon, where we've swapped traditional lighting for energy-efficient LED fittings. By making this switch, we not only reduce our energy consumption but also contribute to a more sustainable and eco-friendly atmosphere for both our clients and our team.
Local Recycling Partnerships
Our commitment to sustainability extends beyond the salon chair. We've partnered with local recycling companies to responsibly dispose of and recycle plastic, paper, and cardboard used by the salon. By choosing local partners, we ensure that our waste is managed responsibly, contributing to a cleaner and healthier community.
Locally Sourced and Hand Crafted
We believe in supporting local businesses and reducing our carbon footprint. That's why our salon is adorned with materials that are locally sourced and handcrafted, steering clear of mass-produced alternatives. From the furniture to the décor, every element has a story that aligns with our commitment to sustainability.
To support our eco-friendly initiatives, we have implemented an optional green fee of £2 in all our salons. This nominal charge enables us to invest in sustainable practices and maintain our commitment to being as environmentally friendly as possible. Your optional contribution to the green fee goes a long way in ensuring that every visit to Butchers Salon leaves a positive impact on the planet.
