Hot take: Cloth neck strips are the way to go for green barbering
I always thought disposable neck strips were key for keeping things clean. A regular customer pointed out all the plastic we throw out. I checked into cloth strips and learned they can be cleaned well. Now I have cotton ones that get washed after every cut. This means less garbage and more money in my pocket. My place feels better and does right by the planet. Other barbers should think about making the switch.

Switched to cloth strips last year and never looked back. You're totally right about cutting down on plastic garbage. My shop used to go through boxes of disposables every week, now it's just a load of laundry. Feels good not to contribute to all that waste. Plus, clients actually comment on how the cotton feels nicer against their skin. Honestly, the only downside is remembering to run the wash, but that's a small price to pay.

Isn't that laundry routine totally worth it?

How good does it feel to cut down on all that plastic? I switched my shop over and the difference in waste is honestly shocking. It's one of those easy wins that just makes sense.
