KH Hair Hinckley’s Partnership with the Green Salon Collective
KH Hair Hinckley, a leading Hinckley hair salon, has been a proud member of the Green Salon Collective for several years. This long-term partnership reflects a strong commitment to sustainable hairdressing and reducing the environmental impact of salon services. It ensures that salon waste is managed responsibly while continuing to deliver exceptional hair care for clients across Leicestershire.
The Green Salon Collective's Sustainable Hair Salon Practices in Action
As an eco-friendly hair salon in the UK, KH Hair Hinckley works with the Green Salon Collective to recycle or repurpose a wide range of waste materials. Hair clippings, used foil, colour tubes, empty product packaging and PPE are all carefully separated and processed. Collected hair is used in projects such as oil spill clean-ups, composting, and the creation of gardening materials. Metal waste is recycled into new products, and even unused colour is converted into energy.
These sustainable salon practices significantly reduce the amount of waste sent to landfill and support the growing circular economy in the UK hairdressing industry.
Supporting Change Through the Green Salon Collective's Green Fee
A small Green Fee of £1 is included with each appointment to help fund the specialist collection and recycling service. This fee directly supports the work of the Green Salon Collective and helps finance ongoing environmental projects, product innovations, and research into sustainable salon solutions.
Any surplus from the Green Fee can be reinvested into greener equipment, eco-friendly salon tools, and reusable towels, or donated to charities supported by the collective, including Haircuts4Homeless and FoodCycle.
A Long-Term Commitment to Sustainable Hairdressing
Through its Green Salon Collective membership, KH Hair Hinckley has access to regular sustainability education, industry research, and innovative pilot schemes. The salon team participates in training sessions, product trials, and collaborations with sustainable brands and academic institutions to keep improving environmental performance.
This commitment means clients receive not only expert hair services but also the reassurance that their chosen Hinckley hair salon is operating in a responsible, ethical, and environmentally aware way with the Green Salon Collective’s help.
Positive Impact Through Collective Action
By working alongside other salons in the Green Salon Collective, KH Hair Hinckley contributes to significant nationwide results. Across the UK and Ireland, the initiative has diverted more than 180 tonnes of salon waste from landfill and raised thousands of pounds for both charitable and environmental causes.
