Hey gorgeous! At SATORI Hair, we’re not just obsessed with creating stunning, healthy hair; we’re passionate about protecting our planet too. We believe that looking good shouldn’t cost the earth, and that’s why sustainability is woven into the very fabric of our three salons – Kingsville, Sunshine, and Essendon.
You might think of a hair salon as a place of quick fixes and temporary transformations, but at SATORI, we’re building something lasting – a commitment to a healthier environment for all. It’s more than just a trend for us; it’s a way of life.
More than just a pretty cut
Our journey towards sustainability began with a simple question: “What can we do differently?” The answer led us to Sustainable Salons, an incredible organisation that’s revolutionising the hairdressing industry. They’ve become our partners in crime, helping us recycle a staggering 95% of our salon waste – that’s almost everything from hair clippings to shampoo bottles!
Think about the mountains of waste generated by the average salon. Now imagine that drastically reduced. That’s the power of our partnership. We’re diverting tons of waste from landfills each year, and that feels amazing.
What happens to all that hair?
You might be wondering what happens to everything we recycle. Well, it’s truly remarkable!
- Fertiliser: Hair clippings are collected for compost, nourishing the earth, helping gardens bloom, and closing the loop on the life cycle.
- Building materials: Giving old shampoo bottles a new lease of life in the form of furniture.
- Wigs for people who need them: This is perhaps the most heartwarming part. When you take real length off, your ponytail can be tied, cut and sent on to be made into a wig. Here’s how a donation cut works.
It’s not just about recycling
Sustainability goes beyond waste management for us. It’s also about:
- Our products: We only use sustainably and organically sourced products, whenever possible. They’re kind to your hair, your skin, and the environment. We never compromise on quality, and we certainly never test on animals.
- Our team: We’re proud of our incredibly passionate and dedicated team. We support our staff to create a positive and ethical workplace environment where we work together toward creating a positive impact for our clients and the community. We foster a sense of community and shared purpose within the team.
