About Us
Born from a mutual love for exceptional hair and the planet, Buller and Rice brings sustainable luxury to our community. As London’s first truly sustainable salon group, we’re here to prove that making better environmental choices should never mean sacrificing comfort, serenity, or the industry's absolute best results.
OUR STORY
With over four decades of combined industry experience, founders Anita Rice and Stephen Buller opened our first doors in Newington Green. Their vision was simple: to create a highly conscious, welcoming space for everyone – not just the eco-warriors among us.
Anita brings an encyclopaedic knowledge of colour and a deep passion for plant-based green chemistry, while Stephen delivers precise scissor work and refined barbering. Together, they’ve built a brand that challenges industry wastage and champions mindful practices. By partnering with like-minded brands to reduce, reuse, and recycle, Buller and Rice has cultivated a deeply loyal, local community built on effortless style and authentic care.
