Celebrating Earth Month, Every Month

Sustainability at Peter Gotthard Hairdressing in Harrogate

As the flowers bloom and the days grow lighter, spring brings a natural reminder of the beauty around us – and the importance of protecting it. At Peter Gotthard Hairdressing in Harrogate, sustainability isn’t a trend – it’s an essential part of who we are. With April marking Earth Month, it’s the perfect time to share more about the steps we take towards responsible beauty.

Looking and feeling your best shouldn’t come at the planet’s expense. That’s why we’re committed to reducing our environmental impact, from the salon floor to the brands we choose to work with.

Our Sustainable Hair Salon Mission

Our Harrogate salon is a creative, welcoming space – and we believe caring for each other also means caring for the wider world. That’s why we operate with eco-friendly habits in place and partner only with brands that share our passion for sustainable practices.

From water-saving methods to low-waste policies, we’re always looking for ways to reduce our impact. Sustainability is a constant journey, and we’re proud to take those steps together with our clients and team.

Why We Work With Davines Haircare

We proudly use Davines hair products at our Harrogate salon – a company whose sustainable ethos mirrors our own. Davines has been a certified B Corp since 2016, but its commitment to ethical beauty goes back even further. From reducing carbon emissions and supporting reforestation, to promoting diversity and limiting plastic waste, Davines leads the way in responsible beauty.

When you choose a Davines service or take home a product from our salon, you're supporting a brand that prioritises both people and the planet. Their packaging is mindful, their formulas are high-performance yet gentle, and they aim to make sustainability accessible for everyone.

Vegan Hair Treatments with Davines

Our stylists love using The Circle Chronicles – a collection of seven vegan hair masks by Davines that target different hair needs. These treatments are made using renewable energy and mostly natural ingredients, with carbon offsets from global reforestation projects. They’re not only kind to your hair, but kind to the environment too.

Whether your hair feels dry, damaged, or in need of a boost, we can recommend the right Davines hair treatment for you. For mixed concerns, we can even tailor a mask combination to suit your individual needs.

Refillable Davines Haircare Pouches – Low Waste, High Quality

In line with their efforts to reduce single-use plastic, Davines now offers refillable haircare pouches for some of their most popular products. These pouches are designed to reduce packaging waste while still delivering the same professional results you know and love. Simply refill your existing Davines bottle at home – it’s a practical, low-waste alternative that fits beautifully into your eco-conscious lifestyle.

We stock these refill pouches at our Harrogate salon, so don’t forget to ask your stylist about switching to a more sustainable haircare routine on your next visit.

Shop Davines Haircare In-Salon or Online

You can find a carefully selected range of Davines shampoos, conditioners, and styling products at our Harrogate salon and in our online shop – making it easy to maintain your sustainable haircare routine wherever you are.

One of our most-loved ranges is Davines OI, with the OI Shampoo and Conditioner praised for creating soft, shiny, full-bodied hair. It’s a favourite for a reason – and it’s suitable for all hair types.

Not sure which product is right for you? Our expert stylists at Peter Gotthard Hairdressing in Harrogate are always happy to recommend the perfect match for your hair needs and lifestyle.

Olaplex Vegan Hair Repair

Alongside Davines, we’re pleased to offer Olaplex treatments – a vegan-friendly, cruelty-free range designed to rebuild hair from the inside out. Whether used during colouring or as a stand-alone service, Olaplex transforms brittle, damaged strands into soft, healthy-looking hair.

The range now includes daily care like shampoos, conditioners, and masks – including a purple shampoo perfect for blondes.

Eco-Friendly Salon Towels from Scrummi

We use Scrummi biodegradable towels throughout the salon, made from compostable wood fibres sourced from sustainable forests. These single-use towels break down in just 8-12 weeks and are significantly more absorbent than traditional cotton – meaning less waste and more efficiency.

Scrummi has also achieved B Corp certification, recognising their commitment to the highest environmental and ethical standards. We’re proud to be recognised by them as a Sustainable Legend – an honour given to salons making real efforts to lower water use, reduce energy consumption, and create a more conscious salon experience.
