Sustainability Solutions

Looking to transform your salon into a relaxing retreat for your clients and promote a more holistic feel? We hear from green libertine Zoë Rees, owner of Bliss Sustainable Salon, as she discusses her eBook, Green With Envy, a no-fuss plant guide to create and keep a thriving salon oasis!

Plants are more than just decorative; one of the most significant benefits is their ability to purify the air. Many plants, such as the snake plant or peace lily, remove toxins and improve air quality, making your salon a healthier environment for both clients and your team. It’s been proven that plants contribute to creating a holistic and calming ambiance, with the presence of greenery known to reduce stress levels and promote relaxation and a sense of well-being. Imagine your clients walking into a salon filled with the soothing presence of lush foliage, softening their mood and enhancing their overall experience. Plants serve as a natural sound barrier, helping to minimise noise and create a more tranquil setting.

Understanding the demands of a busy salon, the eBook highlights the ease of plant care by providing straightforward, practical advice, alongside a shopping checklist to get you started! Plants are also grouped into those that like a bright spot and those that are happy in low-light conditions, alongside a simple routine that fits into your salon life.

As a salon owner herself, Zoë has experienced the benefits of introducing real plants and a connection to nature. Plants don’t just enhance the aesthetic appeal, but also the holistic environment and well-being of your clients. The e-book also includes tips on using plants as part of your salon’s branding, appealing to environmentally conscious clients and showcasing your commitment to sustainability.

It’s true that the hairdressing industry is changing and clients are seeking out salons that offer more naturally derived products. Adding plants and creating a calm, relaxing environment go hand in hand with a forward-thinking salon. Green With Envy is a must-read for hair stylists eager to elevate their salon’s atmosphere. By following the guidance within, you’ll discover the ease and transformative power of plants, creating a space that nurtures both peace and wellbeing.
