The Sustainability Salon

The verdict

This salon in Sydney is all about giving the responsibility to you, by having a ‘pay what you feel’ philosophy on all non-chemical services. The Sustainability Salon in Surry Hills provides a high-end service to both men and women in a sustainable manner without using toxic chemicals. Not just a salon, it's also a sustainable space that gives back to the community by being completely environmentally friendly, which is pretty special in our books.

In the Creative Serenity Room, which consists of a relaxing hammock, a wall-library with a borrow-donate system and an inspiration chalkboard where you can leave your imprint, they offer a tailored consultation and colour solution for your hair. Your hair will be treated in the Well-Being Space where you’ll be surrounded by walls of vegetation and Australian Bush essential-oil aromatherapy. Next, in the Style and Finish space, there are custom made chairs seated in front of heritage door mirrors and firewood logs as foot rests. And finally, in the Sustainable Beauty Space, they offer a range of non-toxic products from Davines arranged beautifully on a wall of mini-crates. Who knew a haircut could be such a nourishing and natural experience?!
