Our Products

Our Earth-Friendly Products & Processes

All of our products are natural, organic and sustainable, and most are vegan. We prioritize our clients’ health and wellbeing without compromising on quality. We use paper in the salon as an alternative to tin foil, which we wash and reuse to reduce our impact on landfill. We collect hair, which is upcycled and used as a sustainable material. We’re proud to offer refills for some retail products like shampoo and conditioner. Bring in your clean empty bottle for refilling to receive a green discount on your product!

How we Reduce Waste

We recycle all glass, and as many plastics as we can, and we are very conscious of keeping our plastic consumption to a minimum. We recycle our cardboard through Reclaim Christchurch. They are 100% New Zealand and 0% Landfill.

Our Sustainable Water Practices

At the basin we use eco heads to minimize water usage. This includes a special filtration system that ionizes the water and removes sediment – leaving the hair cleaner and healthier.
