Our passion for beautiful hair goes hand-in-hand with our commitment to the planet.
More and more people are seeking ways to reduce their environmental impact, and sustainable hair care is at the heart of that movement. As a Northampton salon dedicated to both style and sustainability, we’re proud to be leading the way with eco-friendly products, refillable options, and a holistic approach to hair health.
Why Sustainable Hair Care Matters
“Sustainable hair care” isn’t just a some buzzword, now it’s a lifestyle choice. By choosing products and routines that are kind to the earth, you’re making a difference with every wash. Traditional hair care products often contain harsh chemicals, come in single-use plastic packaging, and are tested on animals. At Major Hairdressing, we believe there’s a better way.
The Environmental Impact of Traditional Hair Care
- Single-use plastics from bottles and packaging add to landfill waste
- Ingredients like cheap sulphates and silicones can harm waterways and aquatic life
- Many mainstream brands still test on animals or use animal-derived ingredients
Our Sustainable Philosophy
Our mission is always to help you feel your best, while protecting the world around us. That’s why we:
- Carefully select brands that share our values
- Stock cruelty-free and vegan products
- Offer a refill service for shampoos and conditioners
- Educate our clients about making greener choices
