A new Lush HairLab salon concept will soon open its doors, inviting consumers into a space centered on high-quality, ethically produced haircare experiences. The Lush HairLab has no chemical hair dyes, recycles 100% of its salon waste, and champions hyper-local, handmade products. To ensure all clients can enjoy comfortable experiences, Lush HairLab offers texture-specialist hair artists, quieter hours, and optional mirrorless experiences.
"Every detail has been created to make your experience one of a kind–from our Botanical Washroom where you can choose between soft or hard water rinses, to our inclusive services that welcome everyone just as they are," said Daisy Evans, Lush Haircare Category and HairLab Lead, "We’re here to celebrate individuality, push the boundaries of what a salon can be, and offer a space that’s healthy for people, hair and the planet."
