Eco-conscious hair removal just reached a new milestone as Canadian brand Foxy Box Laser & Wax Bars becomes the only Green Circle Certified hair removal franchise in the beauty industry. In a sector often criticized for waste-heavy practices, Foxy Box is setting a new sustainability benchmark by turning everyday beauty rituals into planet-friendly choices.
Through its partnership with Green Circle Salons, Foxy Box ensures that up to 95% of salon waste -- including wax strips and applicators -- is recovered and repurposed at a Vancouver facility. Waste is used in a waste-to-energy process, creating clean energy and even repurposing leftover ash for road construction. In 2024 alone, Foxy Box diverted 70,000 pounds of waste from landfills.
By combining high-performance services with eco-responsibility, Foxy Box offers clients smooth results and peace of mind.
