Get into the Green Scene

It’s a lot of trial and error when it comes to finding that perfect cocktail of products that ensure our perfect look. But do we know exactly what we’re putting onto our hair and how it is affecting our planet? We sometimes forget about these long and confusing looking ingredients that wash through our hair and down our drains. Salon[718] has implemented Pureology as a way to care for not only every hair need but also a way to care for our environment. 

Pureology is a 100% vegan brand that but believes sustainability is a responsibility. Every Pureology bottle is made of 50% post-consumer recycled materials that are 100% recyclable. Minimizing their environmental impact across the entire lifecycle of their products is an ethos Salon[718] can get behind. We are proud to announce that Salon[718] has joined the Green Circle Salon initiative to becoming a green salon. Green Circle is the world’s first and North America’s only, sustainable salon solution to recycle beauty waste assuring we keep not only people beautiful but also our planet.

We’re not stopping there, our Salon[718] Dumbo location, at the 1 Hotel Brooklyn Bridge, is completely paperless! Thanks to our Phorest salon software, Salon[718] Dumbo offers paperless receipts and the use of Ipads with online magazines. 

Whether it’s the products we use at our salon or the products we use at home, Salon[718] strives to make a larger impact for our planet.  Easy practices like cutting your audition for the Voice in the shower down to 5 minutes or trading your plastic straws for your metal ones can make a huge difference for the environment. Being sustainable is just a fancy way of saying how seriously we take the responsibility to have a cleaner environment. Salon[718] believes having clean; beautiful hair should be as impactful as our stay here on Earth. Want to learn more about Pureology?
