Respectfully EP23 – Minimising our environmental impact with Ana McCormack & Joanne Gilder

This week, we’re talking about impact on the environment, and how we can all try to become a little more sustainable in our salon practices. After all, there is no planet B!

ON THE PANEL

Ana McCormack is a PLATINUM.KEY educator for KEVIN.MURPHY, and from working alongside her at various events over the last few years – she is perfectly placed to join in this debate as someone who is hugely passionate and dynamic about working to support the environment – in both personal and professional choices.

Joanne Gilder is a part-time GOLD.KEY educator for KEVIN MURPHY, and owns her own salon Gilded Hair in Wokingham, Berkshire where she has laid out her own environmental promise to all her clients – which is very inspirational reading indeed.
