As of 2021 All Gordon Salons are carbon Negative, meaning we actively reduce more carbon in the atmosphere than our operations create. We have planted over 1,225 oak trees & plugs in the Lake County Forest Preserves. We purchase our energy from Solar farms. We have limited our paper use and production, made permanent improvements to reduce water waste & run our own recycling program. We do Walks For Water, beach cleanups, tree plantings, buckthorn cleanups and since our inception have raised over $100,000 in donations for the Alliance for the Great Lakes, more than any other salon in the Midwest.
