Our Culture

"Pura Vida" signifies more than just the name of our hair salon. It holds a deep significance for us, just as it does for the Ticos (Costa Ricans) who inspired us to name our salon Pura Vida Color Studio. While many immediately translate it to "Pure Life," these words only scratch the surface. "Pura Vida" encompasses a philosophy centered on appreciating life's simple joys, valuing and conserving nature's beauty, and practicing gratitude for one's blessings. This concept embodies a laid-back lifestyle where stress is minimized, happiness is prioritized, and a strong sense of community and hospitality is fostered through friendliness, warmth, and a willingness to assist others. At the core of "Pura Vida" lies the principles of gratitude and resilience, enabling individuals to face challenges with optimism, viewing life's obstacles as opportunities for personal growth and fulfillment. Ultimately, "Pura Vida" encourages living in the moment and cherishing life's moments, whether it's sharing a meal with loved ones, exploring the outdoors, or simply unwinding. Embrace the present and relish life's experiences to the fullest.

Our shampoo bowls guarantee personal space and a relaxing darkened space with aroma therapy to smell and videos of pleasant oceans and fires to put your mind at ease. There are tropical plants for both beauty and air purification. We also purify the air with a Blueair air filter, which is known for its advanced filtration technology and effectiveness in improving indoor air quality, enhancing comfort, and promoting better respiratory health.

Sustainable Practices: We use environmentally friendly practices in every aspect of our operations. This includes using energy-efficient lighting and appliances, recycling and properly disposing of waste, and reducing water consumption through efficient plumbing fixtures.

They prioritize sourcing from sustainable farms and cooperatives, ensuring that ingredients are harvested responsibly without harming ecosystems or local communities.

Low-Impact Hair Coloring: We offer hair coloring services that use Davines Mask Hair Color which is formulated with a gentle, low-ammonia formula. This makes it suitable for those with sensitive scalps or those who are sensitive to strong chemical odors typically associated with hair coloring.

Support Clean and Renewable Energy: We have enrolled 100% in DTE’s MIGreenPower program to support clean and renewable energy sources for electricity usage. These sources include wind and solar power generated within Michigan. Our support promotes the growth of renewable energy infrastructure in Michigan, which helps to lessen the impact associated with traditional electricity generation.

Committed to Waste Diversion: We are a Green Circle Salon Certified. Being a Green Circle Salon enables us to implement recycling and repurposing programs for materials that are typically considered salon waste, such as hair clippings, foils, color tubes, and excess chemicals. For example, hair clippings are repurposed into hair booms used for oil spill cleanup. Or consider chemicals, chemicals like hair coloring and treatments, their impact is minimized by using systems that neutralize and separate chemicals from water before safe disposal.
