Eco Hair & Beauty

Eco Hair and Beauty is a sustainability-focused resource for hair and beauty professionals, helping businesses and stylists take practical steps toward more environmentally responsible working. Its website brings together education, training and client-facing materials designed to encourage sustainable choices in salons and beyond. Visitors can access a free virtual salon tour and a sustainable stylist course, with a certificate available on completion. The site also offers stylist and salon certificate information, a virtual salon training programme, educational videos, news and advice on engaging clients around sustainability.

A featured resource is Mirror Talkers: short eco-tips displayed on mirrors to spark conversations about sustainable haircare. Posters are available to download and print at no cost, while physical, sticky-backed packs of 12 can be purchased for £1.50. The website also directs small businesses to a free Sustainability Reporting Project run by the University of Southampton’s Southampton Business School. Participating businesses receive a sustainability report accredited to Global Reporting Initiative standards, with support from academics and students.
