Where your salon waste goes
At most salons, these go straight to the landfill. Here’s what happens to them after your appointment with us.
Hair clippings
Made into sustainable combs and bio-composite plastics like recycling bins, composted, used in environmental research, and turned into products for humanitarian efforts.
Foils & metals
Sorted, then melted down into aluminum sheets and bars that become new products like car parts and bicycles.
Excess hair color
Turned into clean energy, or separated into oil and water. The water is cleaned and returned to the water system, and the oil is blended into fuel.

A team of Waste Warriors
Every stylist here sorts as they go: foils in one bin, clippings in another, leftover color set aside. It’s a small habit that has added up to 375 lbs so far this year.
Green Circle Salons is a Certified B Corporation and Zero-Waste-to-Landfill certified, and our membership also offsets the salon’s energy emissions.
