Organic hair salons

Organic hair salons are hard to come by these days. A chemical free place with healthy hairdressers and non toxic products. Working with the strong chemicals in a hairsalon has proven to give many stylists asthma and allergies and can even cause birth defects in babies. I think we should all consider what we are actually using and start questioning the producers of the products and maybe abandon those who refuse to listen. If a large part of the salons would turn to greener alternatives I am very sure that the big companies would start looking their way. The consumers lead the market and as long as we purchase the harmful products they will continue to produce them.

The same goes for clients. Refuse the chemical treatments unless you can find an organic alternative and only purchase certified organic products. Be careful when shopping and look for certification labels as many products today say they are natural and organic but really aren't. Look at the content of the product. A good rule is if you can't read it, you should probably not use it.

Let's all turn our back to the harmful chemicals and treat our bodies with the respect they deserve, and work towards a better environment.
