What Is A Green Circle Salon?

Let’s be real, salons generate too much waste! Did you know the beauty industry creates nearly 900 pounds of waste every minute? This includes packaging, product and (yes) hair. But thanks to this world-changing initiative, I’ve learned that I can repurpose or recycle 95 percent of my waste.  Green Circle Salons is an international program that makes it easy and affordable for local salons to reduce their eco-footprint. They help recover, recycle and repurpose almost all of my salon waste. Since 2009, GCS has recycled or repurposed 2.1 million pounds of waste, and their goal is to make the North American salon industry fully sustainable by next year.

Why I’m Going Green

I know that every individual and business plays a role in keeping our environment healthy. I’m committed to doing my part in not only making my clientele more beautiful but also protecting our environment by partnering with programs that share the same values.

Green Circle Salons started in Canada and is catching on in the U.S. When I heard about this innovative effort, I was immediately in. I’m proud to be on the cutting edge of the movement in our region. In fact, clients have even been asking how they can help from home. It’s easy! With just a little more mindfulness and care, you, too, can be a Waste Warrior! And I love to talk about sustainability, so feel free to chat with me about how the little steps we take every day can make a big difference.
