My name is Claire and I opened a new Eco salon, Alta Hair Studio, just 2 months ago. Before the pandemic I was traveling 40 miles a day to work in a salon I ran on the other side of the Peak District. I used my experience as a salon owner to open a salon in premises which required hard work and a creative eye to see past the outdated decor, mildew walls and poorly maintained rooms of an old charity shop. Part of my challenge was to minimize environmental impact wherever possible whilst creating a high-end salon environment. - Salon Owner Claire
