The motto of Green Circle Salons says it all. Getting a gorgeous new haircut is great, but that is not the end of the story. The beauty industry sends 877 lbs. of waste to landfill every single minute. Green Circle Salons is aiming to change that by recycling and repurposing beauty wastes. What are beauty wastes? Beauty waste is everything that has previously gone into the trash, including paper and plastics as well as salon specific materials like, hair, foils, excess hair color, and more.
