Freyja is proud to be a part of the Sustainable Beauty Movement.
OUR ENGAGEMENTS
By prioritizing sustainability, we aim to do our part in minimizing the impact of our day-to-day business operations on the environment, in turn helping to keep both your hair and the planet healthy and happy.

We partner with Green Circle Salons.
OUR PARTNERS
Green Circle Salons collects, recycles, repurposes, and recovers up to 95% of the waste we generate.
Hair clipping, metals, plastics, papers, excess hair colors and PPE waste are sorted directly at Freyja and collected by Green Circle Salons.
They are then dispatched throughout a network of specialized recycling, compost or recovery facilities.
Thanks to Green Circle Salons, in 2024 :
- 10 lbs of excess hair colour were recovered into energy
- 69 lbs of metals were recycled
- 14 lbs of papers and cardboards were recycled
- 17 lbs of PPE were recycled
- 126 Ibs of hair clippings were composted
OUR PRODUCTS
Our commitment to the environment extends to the products we carry - that's why we love Italian hair care brand, Davines.
Davines offers products that harmonize both science and nature, and encourages people to be mindful of their well being, and that of the world around them. Since 2006, Davines has embarked on a path to reduce and compensate for its CO2 emissions, and supports various other projects that are globally conscious, including the slow food movement.

We take our commitment to reducing our environmental impact a step further.
CARBON NEUTRALITY
In 2021, Salon Freyja became the first salon in Montreal to participate in a pilot program with Green Circle Salon called The Carbon Neutral Salon Benefit in order to offset some of our CO₂ emissions.
In 2023, the program was renewed in collaboration with Offset Alliance, a B Corp-certified and Women-Owned Small Business. Through this partnership, Salon Freyja offsets its CO₂ emissions specifically related to its electricity consumption - making us Carbon Neutral Certified for our Scope 2 emissions.
A certification that has been maintained for 2024 as well.

As part of our engagement to reduce our impact, we are measuring our carbon footprint.
OUR IMPACT
This means that we assess the environmental impact of our operations (both internally and externally). In other words, we evaluate our footprint for Scopes 1, 2, and 3 (partially).
For this reason, we ask all of our clients, on a voluntary basis, to share what distance they will travel and what mode of transportation they will use to travel to Freyja.
We also encourage our community to engage in more sustainable practices and to support local small businesses.

Salon Freyja is part of a leading global movement for an inclusive, equitable, and regenerative economy.

It’s not a label, it’s a commitment: every haircut, every color, every decision we make is guided by transparency, equity, and care for our community and the earth.
Through the rigorous B Impact Assessment, we’ve restructured how we operate—from reducing waste, assessing our carbon footprint and achieving carbon neutrality certification, to embedding inclusivity and well-being into the heart of our team culture. B Corp Certification is our way of ensuring that when you choose Salon Freyja, you’re choosing a salon that puts people and planet first, without compromise.
And this is just the beginning. B Corp pushes us to continuously learn, grow, and prove that beauty and integrity truly can thrive side by side.
