Sustainable Beauty: How Hush is Keeping It Green

(Without Compromising on Fabulous Hair)

Let’s be real—no one wants to choose between amazing hair and doing right by the planet. At Hush, we’re all about that high-performance, low-impact life, making sure you get killer hair while keeping things as eco-friendly as possible.

Why Sustainability Matters (Yes, Even for Your Hair!)

Salons have a pretty big footprint—think plastic, chemicals, and even those sneaky little hair clippings. Without the right systems in place, a lot of this ends up in landfills. Kaore e pai! But the good news? It doesn’t have to be this way. We can still create dreamy hair without trashing the planet. And that’s exactly what we’re doing.

So… how do we do it? We’ve teamed up with the legends at Evo Hair and Sustainable Salons to bring you a hair experience that’s both fabulous and kind to the earth. Here’s how we’re making it happen.

Evo Hair: Good Vibes, Good Hair, No Nasties

Evo Hair isn’t just about making you look good (though, trust us, they do that too). They’re on a mission to create pro-quality haircare without the unnecessary stuff. That means:

- No overhyped ingredients. Just the good stuff your hair actually needs—no sulphates, parabens, or unnecessary additives.

- Sustainable packaging. Evo uses post-consumer recycled plastic, because the last thing we need is more waste floating around. Bonus: it still looks cute on your shelf.

- Vegan and cruelty-free. No testing on animals, because your hair should be the only thing getting styled.

- Less Waste, More Impact: Evo is constantly working to reduce waste in their production process, so you can lather, rinse, and repeat without the eco-guilt.

Evo is the cool, no-BS haircare brand we love, and we’re so proud to have them in our salon.

Sustainable Salons: Turning Waste Into Something Wonderful

Ever wondered what happens to all the hair clippings, foils, and empty bottles in a salon? Well, at Hush, they’re not heading to landfill. Thanks to our partnership with Sustainable Salons, we recycle up to 95% of salon waste, which means:

- Hair clippings get turned into hair boomsto clean up oil spills in the ocean (yep, your hair is helping save marine life!).

- Foils, metals, and plastics get recycled and repurposed into new, useful things instead of clogging up landfills.

- Proceeds from recycling go to KiwiHarvest, helping provide meals to those in need. Great hair and a full heart? Yes, please!

- Greener Future: Sustainable Salons helps salons like ours become more eco-friendly, so we can keep your locks looking lush while looking after the planet.

We’re basically hairdressers by day, planet-savers by night (okay, maybe that’s dramatic, but you get the vibe AND you’ll even get to wear a cape while you’re in the salon!).

Good for Your Hair, Good for the Planet
