Sustainable hairdressing

Becoming a more sustainable hairdresser isn't just about being kind to our fellow humans and the planet; it's the key to commercial success in a market where sustainability, nature and ethics resonate deeply with our clients.

At Anne Veck Oxford between 2013 and 2022, we aimed to make a difference by reducing our energy use, meeting our remaining energy needs from renewable sources, reducing our own and our clients' carbon emissions, reducing waste and using ethical and sustainable products and packaging wherever possible.

So we have ten years of experience to share! Here goes:

1. Salon RE:Source: our sustainable hairdressing tool kit. Get yours now!:
