Recycle your empties at Sarah Kahn hair

The amount of plastic packaging on U.S. products (not just on personal care items) has increased by over 120 times since 1960—with almost 70 percent of that waste piling up in landfills. We want to support you in this sustainable journey and make it easy!

Sarah Kahn Hair is recycling this waste through the TerraCycle Zero Waste Box Program, a recycling platform that works to reuse, up cycle and recycle waste. Click to learn more about Terracycle.

Q: Whats the right way to dispose of your used beauty products?

A: In order for our team to be able to recycle your products, all containers need to be completely cleaned, without any residue or left-over product in sight. An overnight soak in soap & water should do the trick!
