Anil Salhan, Owner of the BLACC + BLOND salon, commented:
To win the Green Salon of the Year category at this year’s Salon Business Awards would be an incredible achievement. We launched our ‘GREEN IS THE NEW BLACC’ campaign on World Earth Day last year and since then, we have been continuously researching new avenues to become more environmentally friendly, with the aim to be one of the most sustainable hair salons in the UK.
Winning this award would show that our efforts truly have not gone unnoticed and would help us shout further about what we do, with the hope that many other salons and businesses will follow and do their part to make the world a better place.
