Hair Recycling:
In addition to cardboard, paper and plastic, one of the more interesting programs we have is our hair collection program for the use in making Oil Spill Hair Mats. Clean hair is collected after each hair cut and then mailed to a San Francisco company called Matter of Trust, Inc. that makes mats to help with oil spills. The hair mats soak up the oil from oil spills, they are collected and oil eating fungus, bacteria, worms are introduced. After a set amount of time the hair is safe to disposed but makes great compost.
