Walk for Water 2012 Join us this year

Elite Salon — Thu, 15 Mar 2012 20:48:16 +0000

WHAT IS THE WALK FOR WATER?

Kids need clean water. Our key fundraising project includes our fifth annual Walk for Water held across the nation on April 22, 2012. This walk will unite Water Warriors from 15 cities nation-wide in a 6 km walk – this is the average distance a young girl or woman in East Africa must walk to access clean water. Through the walk we aim to generate awareness to the global water crisis.
2011 CANADIAN EARTH MONTH RESULTS

The successful fourth-annual Canada-wide Earth Month 2011 campaign resulted in over $416,000 raised and engaged 2,200 walkers across 16 cities. Thank you to every Aveda salon owner and employee as well as friends and family members who supported Earth Month efforts for WaterCan, our Canadian partner. It was a huge task and we achieved it together. Through our efforts, we have helped improve the lives of over 16,000 individuals in eastern Africa. www.iwalkforwater.ca

The Humboldt walk takes place Sunday April 22 at 11:00am starting at Elite Salon & Spa 228 main street

Show your true love this year…..

aveda’s approach to packaging

Elite Salon — Tue, 18 Oct 2011 23:06:50 +0000

We are proud to be the FIRST BEAUTY COMPANY WITH 100% POST CONSUMER RECYCLED Polyethylene terephthalate (PET) FOR SKIN CARE AND HAIR STYLING.* With every package we develop, we’re mindful of our environmental footprint and work to minimize our packaging and maximize our use of recyclable and post-consumer recycled materials.

our guiding principles

Specifically, this means we:

consider the lifecycle analysis of packaging options
reduce the size, weight and production processes of packaging wherever possible
offer packaging that can be recycled whenever possible
use the most environmentally sound materials and as much post-consumer recycled (PCR) content as commercially possible
use renewable energy to manufacture and fill our packaging
challenge our packaging partners to meet the same standards

breast cancer awareness

Elite Salon — Fri, 14 Oct 2011 22:47:29 +0000

Aveda cares about those affected by breast cancer, so we donate $4 from the sale of each special-edition Pink Ribbon Hand Relief™ product, up to a maximum of $270,000, to the Breast Cancer Research Foundation® to support cruelty-free research. The foundation is an independent, not-for-profit organization founded in 1993 by Evelyn H. Lauder, dedicated to funding clinical and genetic breast cancer research at medical institutions worldwide.

Because Aveda cares about our environment and the animals who share it, donations from Aveda North America fund cruelty-free research* that explores environmental causes and links to breast cancer, like exposure to toxic chemicals and pollutants. For many years now, we've funded a specific research project at Columbia University that studies the relationship between environmental exposures and genetic susceptibility to breast cancer. In 2011 the project has evolved to include research to help better understand when breast cancer susceptibility begins.

Together, we're making a difference. Since 2004, Aveda has supported a contribution of over $1.83 million to the Foundation. It's money that comes not only from corporate contributions, but also from employees and guests who donate through Aveda network fundraising activities each October.

Aveda and Peta

Elite Salon — Fri, 23 Sep 2011 19:51:26 +0000

One major company that’s blazing the cruelty-free trail is Aveda, a leading manufacturer of shampoos, conditioners, hairstyling products, cleansers, perfumes, makeup, and spa products. Founded in 1978 by Horst Rechelbacher, Aveda uses freshly distilled plants and flower essences to create makeup as well as hair care, skin care, and body care products based on aromatherapy. Aveda relies on human studies of the physiological effects of botanical ingredients to develop its broad range of products.

Aveda’s rich shampoos and conditioners turn your morning shower into a luxurious sensory experience! Rosemary Mint Shampoo adds body to your “mane,” while the PETA-popular Shampure offers a garden of lavender, orange, and 25 other floral and herbal extracts. Blue Malva adds silvery brightness to gray hair while reducing brassiness in color-treated hair. Made especially for brunettes, Aveda’s Clove Shampoo enhances warm tones and contains organic coffee. But don’t drink it!

After your shower, you can reach for more Aveda products to primp your healthy, shiny, and revitalized head of hair. From Flax Seed/Aloe Strong Hold Sculpting Gel and Volumizing Tonic to Brilliant Finishing Gloss and Light Elements Reviving Mist, Aveda has something for you.

Pamper yourself with Aveda’s body lotions, moisturizers, and jojoba-based massage blends. (The “personal blend” offers “the perfect amount of slip”—oh, my!) And add color with Aveda’s luscious collection of cosmetics.

Best of all, Aveda’s products are cruelty-free, making you beautiful inside and out. Aveda products are sold primarily through boutiques and professional salons and are available in more than 20 countries, including the U.S., the U.K., Australia, and Italy

About Aveda

Elite Salon — Fri, 23 Sep 2011 19:50:03 +0000

BEAUTY IS AS BEAUTY DOES

Aveda, who partners with salon and spa professionals around the world, sees beauty as a craft, not as a product result. Aveda beauty professionals are unique in the industry for their pursuit of a higher art: helping make their clients not only look beautiful, but feel beautiful. This selfless quest to bring out the beauty in their client through genuine care, differs from beauty industry norms.

Empowered by its unique Mission, Aveda believes that authentic beauty is one that works in harmony with the greater web of life. It does not qualify as beauty if it hurts any of the diverse life forms that the best beauty artist of all, Nature, created. Authentic Beauty cares for the environment which we inherited from elders and will leave to generations that follow us. Beauty cares for the society in which we live, enhancing harmony in the way we live and interact with one another as human beings. In order to be Beauty, it also needs to be Good. Beauty is the result, but also the process followed in pursuing that result.

Said simply, Beauty Is As Beauty Does.
