Organic Salon Systems Expands Distribution in Canada by Opening Distribution Warehouse in Ontario Canada
August 24, 2010 - Palm Harbor, FL — Organic Salon Systems, providers of high-performance, vegan and cruelty free, non-diverted, professional salon products that maximize the use of gentle, nourishing, organic, and natural ingredients while minimizing the necessity for harsh or damaging chemicals; announced today that it has substantially enhanced its reach and distribution capacity by establishing a warehouse in Ontario Canada as part of an ongoing effort to better service and grow their Canadian salon clients. Organic Salon Systems’ Canadian distribution warehouse, located in Mississauga Ontario, has already begun fulfilling Canadian orders while its main distribution center continues to service salons throughout the United States. The company, most notably known for distributing the most organic, natural, and effective professional salon hair color products throughout the United States, has now expanded its mission to improve salons throughout Canada as well.
Scott Mitchell, Organic Salon Systems’ chief executive officer, said “As salon professionals throughout North America command more organic salon products that still provide professional level performance that consistently yield exceptional results, the demand for our Organic Color Systems, Organic Care Systems, Organic Control Systems, and Organic curl Systems professional ranges has continued to accelerate. Adding a Canadian distribution warehouse is a strategic decision that will enable us to better accommodate our existing Canadian salon clients as well as expand into additional salons throughout Canada.”
Previously, Canadian salons that have made the responsible and conscientious decision to embrace the more organic approach to professional salon services were burdened with heightened shipping, duty, and brokerage fees to receive Organic Salon Systems’ products as well as prolonged delivery times. Now, salons can expect to receive their products in a timelier manner as they enjoy lower overall shipping costs.
About Organic Salon Systems:
Organic Salon Systems (the “Company”), headquartered in Palm Harbor Florida, has been serving the professional salon industry since 2003. The Company provides hairdressers with high performance products that maximize the use of gentle, nourishing, organic, and natural ingredients while minimizing the necessity for harsh or damaging chemicals and has been recognized by People for the Ethical Treatment of animals (PETA) as a vegan and cruelty-free professional hair products company. The Company is the exclusive marketing and distribution company for Organic Color Systems, which offers a revolutionary full range of professional salon products including our tightly integrated color, curl, care, and connect lines, throughout the United States and Canada.
Organic Color Systems is the first range of ammonia-free, long-lasting, permanent hair colors containing certified organic extracts and natural ingredients, which have been formulated to cover all grey hair and maintain the hair’s essential moisture and protein levels. Organic Curl Systems is a revolutionary perming, straightening, and relaxing product, which is free from ammonia and thioglycolates. Enriched with plant amino acids, it works around the natural pH level of the hair leaving it undamaged by the process. Organic Care Systems is a range of shampoos, treatments and conditioners, which use the latest natural and certified organic ingredients. The highly advanced formulations are effective on natural, colored or highlighted hair. Organic Control Systems is the first range of styling products, which are completely plastic-free. Traditional plastic-based products produce bonds, which are brittle, causing the style to lose shape and feel crispy.
The Company’s offering also includes other complimentary products, education, advisory, and consulting services. The Company’s website can be found at http://www.OrganicColorSystems.com .
YAY! This is fabulous news for all of us Canadian stylists who are trying to “green up” our business. What a great move and a great opportunity! Thanks, guys. You are ALWAYS thinking of us – the stylists- AND our clients!

My name is Robert ive been doing hair for 28 years. Hair color has been an issue or me for about 24 years of my career because i developed allergies to color and some hair products.I had to stop doing hair because my hands were chemically burnt.I was desperate for a solution.I ve just opened my own salon but i wasnt able to do color and would ask my clients not to color there hair before they came to see me.A friend recommended your product.I recently did a patch test with color and with the bleach .To my surprise there was not a tingle or a bump.I would usually have a severe reaction. I ve peeled so many layers off my hands from burning them with other products. I tried the soothe treatment on my hands.I shampooed my hands put the treatment on then conditioned and i couldnt beleive the difference in my skin.My skin is actually healing.Im very thrilled to have found your product.Im so excited to be doing color again. Cant wait to get your starter kit .Thanks for this wonderful product it s given me my carrer back.
I would like to know if you have a supplier in the Palm Springs,Calif. area or closest area.
Thank You
when i use a hair color then pain start in my eyes after some minute. I am very sad. But i never use organic hair products and not know anything about these products.
I would like to know if you have a distributor in BC Canada, and any education classes as well.
What salons in Vancouver BC use your product? I am looking for a professional hair colourist who uses a fully organic hair colour product.
Thanks,
Judy
Does anyone know of a stylist in Calgary, Alberta using this line, working either in a salon or out of their own home?
It would be nice to see the responses to these questions. I’m also looking for someone in Calgary that uses this color product.

Hi Kathleen,
You had left a message on Dec. 28 looking for a Calgary salon using this product. I got a response from the company, which is that Cindy at Angles does use it (403-466-5585). I do not know which location this is, and the number does not match any Calgary locations in the phone book. However, I have not called the number myself yet. If you get any more info, could you please post it here for me to look at?
Thanks so much,
Cher
Hello,
I tried to contact Cindy at Angles in Calgary using the number you provided. However, there is no voice mail message, only an automated system, and I have not received a reply. Also, this number does not match any of the 20 Angles Calgary locations listed in the phone book. Are there any updated numbers on Calgary stylists that you may have?
Thanks so much,
Cher
