Sustainability
At Amanda Flory Hairdressing, we are taking steps to make our salon more sustainable and decrease our carbon foot print. This is very important to us and we continue to strive to do anything we can, big or small to make a difference. We are also taking part in local community projects such as team litter picks and regularly have walk to work days. We have banned one use plastic bottles in the salon too.
We are still relatively new to this journey and are determined to improve bit by bit wherever we can as time goes along….
