Aveda - A Green Beauty Company

The Alaska Energy Fair was a great event! What an exciting and inspiring time to be living in.
Being beside tents with Windmills and Prius's - we got the question, "so why is a salon here?" And this is where we tell you!
Meg Allen Salon is an Aveda Concept Salon. Which means we follow the practices that all Aveda Salons follow.

So what does this mean for you?

We're the first beauty company manufacturing with 100% windpower.
Products are plant derived and our color is 99% naturally plant derived.
We source our ingredients from traditional communities around the world.
Aveda strives to minimize packaging and is thoughtful about the packaging they do use.

As a salon we recycle everything. everything. bottle caps included. we've gotten rid of paper towels and have gone strictly to washable materials.
