Great to read in Fast Company today that Google are also taking plastic out of their packaging. We were astonished at the amount of tiny un-recyclable bits of single use plastic in home hair products and so for the last couple of years we've been working hard behind the scenes to change this. Our salon grade H20 water colour now comes in sachets that can go either into the kerbside food composting or paper recycling streams. Same for the stickers and mailer box - in fact you can use our reusable cap as the bag, it composts too. We've moved to rubber gloves that can be reused and then composted at end of life, just cut them up in small pieces. Tint brushes take a little more work - they're bamboo, so easily go into garden waste once the nylon bristles are removed. Our instruction leaflet is printed on 100% recycled carbon-neutral paper stock using vegetable-based inks It's not perfect yet, but the main thing is to move forward and keep refining. Our aim is for us to only send what our customer needs and not to burden them with a load of stuff that they (and the planet) just don't need. #naturalcolourworks #singleuseplastics #homehaircolour
