Origins
HairColumn started as a simple blog and portfolio in 2013. Coining the phrase, “for the love of hair and life itself.” It was created as a place to chat all things hair and sprinkle a little life in between. Over the years HairColumn evolved into a brand and became a salon in 2021.
Nestled in downtown Eugene, Oregon, you can find a space that specializes in hair, lash and waxing services. An environmentally-friendly salon that dedicates it’s energy to the art of hair without further contributing to the negative impact on our planet. We carry Davines Beauty Products and goods from small businesses around Oregon and beyond.

DAVINES
Exclusively carry Davines Products; a B-Corp based out of Parma, Italy that strives to be the best for the world through beauty, ethics and sustainability. Founded in 1983 by the Bollati Family, Davines started as a family owned research lab producing cosmetic products for companies around the world. Now, still a family owned business, Davines became their own independent brand in 1992 and has expanded their products and offices across the world. Becoming more sustainable with every passing year they utilize food grade plastics, partnered with Slow Food and saved farms and the food they grow from extinction and placed them into their products; giving your hair and skin the nutrients it needs to really thrive. With the majority of their products having an average biodegradability from the earth within 29 days, Davines cares about their impact on the world and on you as a consumer.
GREEN CIRCLE SALON
We became a certified sustainability salon and partnered with Green Circles Salons. We are able to recycle 95% of our waste created within the salon. Did you know that the beauty industry sends 877 pounds of waste to landfill every minute? Through this partnership we can recycle hair, excess hair color, used metals, single use items, papers + plastics and PPE waste. We ship to a Green Circle Facility where they break down each item and are able to filter back into the environment for good. Here’s just a few things you can expect from our waste created in the salon:
composted with other organic waste
turned into bio-composite plastic to make products such as recycle bins
turns into clean energy
metal is melted down and reused for car or bicycle parts
left over ash from things that cannot be recycled are used as filler in asphalt, brick, etc.
made into products for humanitarian efforts
