With the climate crisis at an all-time high, the planet really needs our help right now, and switching to refillable haircare is one way we can show it some love. Whilst we may not be able to save Earth with low-waste haircare, it’s the small changes that’ll add up to big results if we all commit to making better choices daily. If you’re still umming and ahhing over making the switch, here are six reasons to go refillable. Spoiler alert: it’s a no-brainer.

1. CUT DOWN SINGLE-USE PLASTIC PRODUCTION

Minimising plastic production is one of the biggest reasons to go refillable. By using refillable haircare products, you can help lower the production of single-use plastic bottles, which according to Plastic Oceans, is approximately 50% of all plastic produced. Yikes.

2. SAVES YOU MONEY

And who doesn’t want more money? Especially if you have a healthy haircare addiction to fund. When you purchase haircare products, you’re not only paying for the product inside but the packaging it comes in too. As refill pouches are cheaper to produce, we’re able to discount the price of our refillable haircare products. For example, alott sea salt spray refill pouch is £18.00, saving you £4.00 with every purchase.

Low-waste haircare products also tend to come in larger sizes so they last longer, which means you’ll spend less money refilling them. With the refillable spray bottle holding 250ml, our highly concentrated Sea Salt Spray helps us to reduce our carbon footprint as we don’t have to produce and transport refill pouches as often.

3. CAN BE RECYCLED

After being reused and refilled, our glass bottles can be recycled. Glass is 100% recyclable and can be recycled endlessly without loss in quality. Currently, our refill pouches can’t be recycled by your local council (we’re working on it), but if you collect 5 empty refill pouches, we’ll provide a postage label to send them back to us so we can recycle them for you via our partners Terracycle. The best part? You’ll receive a free refill pouch in return, you know, as well as reducing your carbon footprint.

4. SPRUCES UP YOUR BATHROOM

If you’re big on aesthetics, you know the struggle of having to hide your mismatched haircare products in the back of your bathroom cupboard. Our sea salt spray comes in a minimalistic white glass spray bottle that you’ll be proud to show off.

5. MADE TO LAST

Hands up who’s been personally victimised by cheap spray bottles that break before you get to finish the product! We gotchu. Designed for durability, our glass refillable spray bottles will withstand refill after refill with high-quality spray tops, so you can continue to spritz your heart out and avoid product wastage.

6. NATURAL INGREDIENTS

To make our refillable haircare products even more sustainable, sea salt spray is of 99.1% natural origin with ingredients including Halen Môn sea salt, Epsom salts, and bergamot to create texture and volume whilst strengthening the hair and scalp. Go big or go home.
