"Going Green"
Down south in Alpharetta, GA, Aria Salon.Spa.Shoppe, lights up the neighborhood with cost-effective compact fluorescents. Aria’s nine compacts “use 250 watts but illuminate like 1,000 watts and generate very little heat,” says owner Matthew Khodayari. “Immediately, the employees said the change was like day and night.” In Aria’s color area, compacts beam from a large soffet to bounce light off the walls, compact fluorescents and halogens create a nice combination. Switching his bulbs from halogens to compact fluorescents has not only made Aria more “Green” also slashed the utility bills.
