Bella Luci Salon is a sustainable beauty salon focusing on services and products good for the guest, technician, and the earth. February 2020 also marked fourteen years in business. During this time, the team at Bella Luci Salon has raised thousands of dollars for the community through donations, fundraisers through beauty, fashion shows for the Miles of Hope Breast Cancer Foundation, events for Sparrow’s Nest and most recently a cut-a-thon for homeless Veterans for Hudson River Housing’s Veterans Impact Program. The salon operates with a green business philosophy, recycling 95% of waste which turns, for example, hair waste into booms for oil spills. The light source is natural and LED-based, the floors are bamboo, the furniture is repurposed, recycled and sustainable woods and products that are organic and vegan when possible.
