We use Co-Op cleaning products which include no animal ingredients and the same with our washing powder for towels. We made sure our brushes were vegan. Everyone thinks you have to have a badger brush but when you look into it, a lot of them come from China where there are no laws around this and the badgers are skinned alive then shaved before being used for meat. There are lots of televisions in the shop and they can include plastic that contains animal products. There are going to be parts of life that you can’t control. I think I’m years off from being the norm but I am a point of reference for other barbers. My aim as a vegan is to use as few animal products as possible and preferably none. We offer offer complementary Budweiser, which is vegan, and water. If we offer tea or coffee we mention we’ll be using soy milk. Some clients say, “Oh actually, I’m OK thanks” but others will start asking questions. I’m not dead pushy but I’d love the whole world to go vegan and I’d like to reduce animal exploitation as much as I can. So if someone asks why we carry soy I do tell them it’s because of what I have learnt about dairy production. So many people still believe the “Happy Eggs”-style advertising and truly believe that cows just eat grass and make milk. Then there are things like kids sweets to give out at the end of the haircut. I discovered that Swizzels Fizzers and Parma Violets are vegan. You do get some kids asking“ Where’s the Haribo?” and we just have to say we don’t have Haribo anymore. As a salon owner, stylist or mobile hairdresser, we’ll bet you’re committed to giving your clients hairstyles that they love and find as easy to recreate at home between visits as when they leave the salon at a price that’s fair.In these ultra-competitive times your hair salon needs a point of difference: something that will make you stand out from the crowd. Veganism is hitting the headlines at the moment and one man who is already on board is Michael Anderson from Son of a Barber in Maghull, Liverpool. He’s turned his existing shop, L31, into the only vegan barbershop in the UK. We have therefore used this plant to create a unique ‘3-Amaranth blend’ that can be found in all of our products*. The blend comprises of: Our Matt Sea Salt Spray helps to provide added volume and texture, with a matt finish, which can aid in controlling the style of your hair. It can also have an anti-frizz effect, even in humid environments. In addition to our ‘3-Amaranth Blend’ all of our products are also sulphate and paraben free. This means that our range is safe for use on all coloured treated hair and you will find no harsh preservatives, synthetic fragrances or artificial colours here.

My Dad was a barber, I’ve been barbering since I was 14 and I opened my own shop L31 when I was 22. I’ve been a vegetarian since I was five years old because, at that point, I just didn’t like meat. At school in the 1990s and early noughties I was considered the weird one for being vegetarian. I wanted to eat meat to be like everyone else! In May 2016 I watched a few documentaries about dairy production, became a vegan and started saving money to create a vegan shop. As a vegetarian I had always put leather to the side, as a meat by-product, but as a vegan I couldn’t. I had to get rid of a brand new car because it had leather seats! We're proud to announce that our mailing bags are made from recycled polythene and are also recyclable, and our bubble wrap is made from recycled plastic and is completely recyclable.

With 38 products from shampoos, conditioners and treatments to mousse, gels, sprays and pastes, it’s a comprehensive range with efficacy at its core and it comes with an unexpectedly cost-effective price too. SPECIAL INGREDIENT
