TMAC Hair Studio was thoughtfully designed using nature and art to be a relaxing and eco-friendly space. “There are many ways in which we strive to reduce our impact on the environment,” says Tara McAdams, master cosmetologist and owner.

The OWAY products at the salon begin on a biodynamic farm in Bologna, Italy, where medicinal herbs are planted and harvested to obtain the precious ingredients for their green chemistry formulas. This process is free of pesticides, herbicides, insecticides and synthetic fertilizers used in conventional agriculture.

OWAY products come in fully recyclable packaging which eliminates a large amount of waste production. They are also shipped using boxes made from recycled materials as well as biodegradable packing peanuts.

TMAC’s shampoo refill program allows customers to reuse the original OWAY glass containers indefinitely with a 20 percent discount. This eliminates the use of single use plastic bottles.

“Low flow water heads and faucet aerators greatly reduce our water consumption and we use reusable foil alternative paper instead of foil,” says McAdams.

The studio also has a collection of plants to naturally filter and improve the air quality and all natural cleaning supplies are used in the space with washable and reusable towels.

“We believe you are never too small to make a big difference,” says McAdams.
