Great Things Going on at Aveda

Today, I had the opportunity to be a part of a semi-annual State of the Tribe webinar for Aveda. I already knew that I was partnering with one of the greatest companies in the world, but I honestly think Aveda IS THE GREATEST. Why? So many reasons, but today I learned that this year $5.5 million was raised for Earth Month! Isn't that just unbelievable?! Since 1999 when Aveda started raising money for Earth Month, $31 million has been raised-$25million for clean water. Just hearing these statistics literally blew my mind, gave me the chills and made me want to do more.

It was also fun to hear that Aveda has seventeen nominees for NAHA this year. If you aren't familiar with NAHA, which stands for North American Hairstyling Awards, they are pretty much the Oscars for hairdressers. The student category for NAHA has only FIVE nominees and three of those are Aveda students! That's HUGE!

I learned that we have some really great new products coming up, which I am excited to use myself!  I love that Aveda is very selective when choosing who they partner with, and one of my favorite parts of the webinar was hearing President Dominique Conseil say "You guys are the sunshine of the haircare market."

Salon M's Aveda education calendar for the month of July is busy and we are GRATEFUL! We can't wait to share all of the new and exciting things that we have learned!

I always love reading the Aveda Mission:
