Sustainable Hair Salon Waste Disposal Methods

  • By Sean Thurley

Running a salon means dealing with a lot of waste—hair clippings, empty bottles, and chemicals. Here’s how to dispose of them responsibly.

Eco-Friendly Disposal Tips:

  • Hair Recycling – Partner with organizations that use hair for cleaning up oil spills or composting.
  • Refill & Reuse Bottles – Switch to refillable dispensers to cut down on plastic waste.
  • Proper Chemical Disposal – Never pour excess chemicals down the drain; use hazardous waste programs.
  • Donate Unused Products – Give lightly used products to shelters or community programs.

Conclusion: Small changes can make a big impact. By adopting sustainable practices, your salon can reduce waste and help the environment.
