Clients, sponsors and vendors filled out Metropolitan Salon in Princeton, NJ for wine & cheese to celebrate their partnership Green Circle Salon, the only salon-only recycling company in North America. As one of the first salons in New Jersey to take part, Metropolis is blazing the trail for a greener future for salons.
Green Circle Salons offers salons like Metropolis the ability to recycle up to 95% of salon waste including the paper/plastic/glass that almost all salons normally throw away in addition to hair, metal and color by-products that remain in the bowl after hair treatments. Their mission is to make the North American salon industry sustainable by 2020. They are succeeding in doing so in Canada and the Northeast by making recycling affordable and impactful. “We believe that over time – and with the help of guests and employees alike – small steps to transform each salon will enable green and sustainable conversions.” – Green Circle Salon
Not only having an impact by reducing waste that reaches the landfill, Green Circle Salon also contributes to the community. “One of the Foundations we frequently work with on behalf of our member salons during promotions is The Arbor Day Foundation, a non-profit conservation organization. We are committed to returning 5% of our pre-tax profit to work with local and international organizations to support programs that create positive social and environmental change.” said Amy Goei of Green Circles Salon during the Metropolis event.
Along with Green Circle Salon, sponsors include Oribe, SkinCeuticals, Elemental Herbology, Circ-Cell Skincare, Kerastase and Solar City.
Metropolis is a full-service salon and spa located at 301 North Harrison Street, Princeton, New Jersey 08540. Telephone: 609-683-8388
