Like much of the UK right now, we are also being affected by the current energy crisis. We know that these unprecedented times are a worry for everyone, including our salons. So to try and combat this together we spoke to our Wonderful Brands Educator Zoë Rees and got her top energy saving tips to share with you all. Continue reading to see what she had to say.
Saving energy and helping the environment goes hand in hand. It doesn’t have to be complicated or overwhelming, in fact there are so many simple things we can do to make our salons more environmentally friendly. If we all made little changes, the results will be huge!
Here are my top energy saving tips:
- Switching energy provider to one that solely supplies renewable energy. (The Renewable Energy Guarantees of Origin scheme lets consumers know exactly how much electricity from a supplier comes from renewable sources)
- Choose energy efficient equipment with a good energy star rating.
- Switch to Ecoheads for your backwash to reduce water consumption up to 65%.
- Do not let hot water taps run when not being used. Did you know that using hot water is the most energy intensive thing we do?
- Turn off equipment at night. Have you heard about ‘phantom energy’? This is energy that is still being used by equipment that is plugged in but not in use. Phantom energy is a huge and completely avoidable waste.
- Turn off lights when not needed.
- Swap halogen and incandescent bulbs to low-energy LED bulbs.
- Install motion detectors for lighting frequently unoccupied areas.
- Look into solar panels to minimise your energy footprint. Ones with batteries mean you can store energy for later consumption or sell back excess energy to the national grid.
- Wait until you have a full load of salon towels to wash. Lower costs even further by washing on a lower heat and use a high spin to help with drying.
- Avoid using the tumble dryer which uses immense amounts of energy. Let towels air dry overnight on an airer.
- Try using a mix of biodegradable, compostable towels as well as reusable towels to reduce energy consumption and carbon footprint.
- Use one towel per client to reduce energy usage and be more environmentally friendly.

Let us introduce you to the new kid on the block… FRAMAR. First, let us tell you a bit about the FRAMAR story…
FRAMAR dates back to 1978, where co-founders Frank and Maria first met in Frank’s small eight-chair salon where he did Maria’s hair . Not only did Maria get a fresh cut and funky 70’s style, but she also met her future partner in crime. That chance meeting has blossomed into a solid foundation that is at the forefront of Framar, and has propelled a little start-up from Niagara Falls, Canada, to the global business that it is today.
Meet Maria. She embodies the soul of Framar, providing the strong foundation that the brand is built on today. Starting Framar from an idea which her husband Frank brought back to Canada from the UK, she researched, analysed and learned everything there was to know about foil. For the first 20 years, she was a one woman show, running everything from production and sales, to order fulfillment. Some 35 years after taking a leap of faith and creating this company, Maria is still at the helm, serving as company President and remaining intricately involved in all things Framar.
Known for being innovators, trendsetters, dreamers and collaborators, Framar have developed a range of foils, brushes and salon must haves that you will love using.
See what all the fuss is about. No slip grip, no cutting, no problem. Embossed popup foils, they do the work so you are free to do the creating. “At my salon we use all Framar products and colour toold simply because we believe that they give us the best results and the easiest path to that end result. Any problem we run into, Framar seems to have the answer for us” – Jacob Khan (@jacobhkhan)

This Holiday season ELEVEN Australia partnered with Viscaya Wagner – an artist & designer based in Brooklyn, New York. Viscaya has worked with brands such as adidas, Facebook, The North Face, WIRED Japan, WeWORK, & Puma.
Inspired by human connection with the natural world and championing a deep connection with the outdoors, Viscaya’s illustrations primarily feature strong, empowered people represented through diverse healthy minds and bodies.

We asked our ELEVEN Australia Collective what their predictions were for the rest of the 2022.
Here’s what Annabelle Arnold from @annabelles.hair had to say
“From shows at fashion week to high street stores, loud patterns, vibrant colours and vintage inspired styles are everywhere! Designers are pushing messages like “dopamine dressing” and “you be you”.
I love the idea of using a kaleidoscope of colours and patterns to boost our spirits after a dreary couple of years. Usage of colour therapy also ties in really well with the encouragement of personal authenticity, and the gender neutrality that we’re seeing too!
I’m also excited about the recycling of popular vintage styles, since it has made thrifting and up cycling more popular. Which is a big move towards more sustainable fashion. We are seeing these trends translate into hairdressing with the re-emergence of popular 60s, 70s and 90s haircuts/ up dos. Modernised by the vivid or lived in colours that are popular today.”
We also spoke to hair stylist and ELEVEN Australia Collective member Hayley Penny from @hayleypennyhairstylist about her 2022 trend predictions. Read on to see what she had to say…
Hayley predicts that fashion trends such as; cut-outs, colour blocking, dopamine dressing, mini skirts, biker jackets, oversized volumous sleeves & silhouettes will be very prominent in 2022.
Hayley advised that these trends translate into the world of hair through styles such as disconnected fringes, moving away from 70’s bangs to a more prominent fringe shape.
Strong panels of colour blocking in fashion, means that softer, natural, simplistic tones through out the hair, with a face frame or under panel are likely to be a look that many clients come into the salon looking for this year.
Hayley also predicts that full shiny, bouncey, voluminous blowouts, and away from the face styles will be in for 2022. As well as, slick and wet looks, with high shine, and all over muted natural glossy tones. With gold ash blondes, over silvers, and cool coppers blended through matte browns, will be the colours of choice.
Salons will also be more focused on being environmentally and socially responsible, whilst also offering more all gender neutral styles & services.
