Events in the Industry, Benefits and Awards
December 1, 2008 By: American Salon Staff American SalonBiolage Goes GRE.E.N
As part of its Go GRE.E.N Campaign, Biolage gathered more than 60 hairstylists from three local C.R.A.F.T Rewards salons in Sanibel Island, FL, for a daylong event at the J.N. "Ding" Darling National Wildlife Refuge in September. Stylists took buses out to the Shell Mound to clear non-native plants and plant new trees, then returned to the education center to discuss environmental issues and learn how to encourage green initiatives within their salons. The day also marked the end of the Biolage Bottle Back program, a contest in which participating salons collected empty professional haircare bottles for two months. Biolage pledged to donate $3 for every Biolage bottle and $1 each for other manufacturers' bottles returned to the "Ding" Darling Wildlife Society, and a total of $7,000 was presented to the wildlife society. Steel Magnolias Salon of Lehigh, FL, was also recognized as the Biolage Select GRE.E.N Salon of the Year. —G.B.
