The beauty industry sends 877lb of waste to the landfill every single minute. At Bella Bethesda, we want to create beauty, not waste, so our mission is to not only empower our clients to feel beautiful, but also help our Earth stay beautiful.
To further that mission, Bella Bethesda Salon is partnering with Green Circle to let us be as sustainable and kind to our Earth as possible. With their help, we recycle and repurpose up to 95% of our materials, from bottles and foils, to the more unusual items such as hair from your trims and any color leftover in our bowls.
To make this level of sustainability possible, there is a small fee on all of our tickets to mitigate costs and allow us to push to the forefront of sustainability within the beauty industry. With every pound of waste repurposed, we lower that staggering statistic and help give back to the planet that takes care of us every day.
