Hair Salon Marketing and Advertisin...

Posted at 2:02 AM • No Comments

Hair Salon Marketing is essential to have a successful salon business. However, it does not only mean advertising your salon through all the possible channels. Hair salon marketing can be done effectively even without spending a dime!

The basic reason for hair salon marketing is to attract clients. Every salon owner thinks of ways to get more clients and the possible ways through which they can spend more money at the salon. To achieve this objective many salon owners spend huge amount of money in advertising.

There’s nothing wrong in advertising your salon but it should be done so that it provides efficient returns. If you ask any salon owner, how they are able to attract and retain their clients, most of them would say that their USP is their service.

Its so obvious that if you are able to provide excellent service to your clients, you’ll win them for life. Also, not only will they be loyal to you but they’ll refer more people to your salon. There’s no better marketing strategy for hair salon marketing than word of mouth.

Providing the best service to your clients is an inclusive process. It starts from the moment your client enters your salon. Its very important that your receptionist greets them with a smile and makes them feel comfortable. Once they feel at ease in your salon, they’ll be more open to discussion and you can win them over by doing a consultation.

There are many more cost effective ways to successfully market your salon and services. Learn about them in detail by subscribing to Scissorboy’s online cosmetology program.

Does cutting hair make it grow fast...

Posted at 8:20 AM • No Comments

High quality Hairdressing scissors and top hairstylists are always in demand! Some people are so conscious of their looks, especially their hair, that they just can’t stop themselves from visiting a salon. I have seen people visit a hairstylist every two weeks. It’s difficult to say what attracts them to a hair salon – whether it is the sound of hairdressing scissors or its relaxing atmosphere?

One of the oldest myths surrounding hair is – ‘Cutting your hair will make it grow faster.’ Many people believe in this myth but I feel this is totally untrue. Hence I have decided to settle this once and for all!

The actual truth is – Your hair will not physically grow any faster, thicker or stronger if you cut it more frequently. No matter what type of hairdressing scissors you use, excessive cutting will never make it grow faster. Basically, when you cut hair, your locks look healthier since cutting hair eliminates split and gnarled ends. Every time you cut hair, you will start growing again from the ends and what you do to the ends simply doesn’t affect the roots!

To put this more simply, hair grows from the roots and hairstylists cut hair from the ends. They are two different ends that are serving two different purposes; therefore acting on one will never have any effect on the other one.

On average, hair grows at a rate of about a half-inch per month, so experts recommend regular cuts about every four to six weeks. That is the ideal time to groom your style. However, you must remember to use good quality hairdressing scissors. If you see your stylist using cheap hair shears, it’s your duty to point it out and make them use good quality tools.

I hope that by now you find these myths to be false. Do not fall prey to such stupid myths if you really care for your beautiful hair. Instead, you are better off watching the Cutting Edge Hair Show, and educating yourself on How to take proper care of your hair. This online cosmetology program provides answers to all your hair care needs and also busts such false myths.

The Green Hair Salon – Why I am t...

Posted at 5:28 AM • No Comments

The Green Hair Salon is a great concept of preserving our environment from the harmful products used in the salons. The goal of going GREEN is to reduce your company’s carbon footprint and that’s why I am their biggest fan.

Hair salons have long been criticized for the pollution they generate. Traditional hair dyes, shampoos, hair sprays and other cosmetic products contain harmful chemicals that are routinely used in various salons. After their use on the customer’s scalp, they are often washed down the drain where they accumulate in waterways, soils and even our bloodstreams. And this is equally harmful to our environment as it is to us.

And to prevent such unhygienic decomposition of salon waste, many salons are becoming Green Hair Salons by adopting safe practices. The Oasis Hair and Skin Care is the first certified green salon in Santa Cruz County, California. And there are many more which are following on their footsteps.

Some advantages of going green are:

It’s a money saver. Yes you can save a lot of money by going green. An important aspect of any Green Hair Salon is light fixtures which are energy efficient. By adopting these types of best practices, one can have the utilities commission to offset the retrofitting costs.

The Green Hair Salon promotes the concept of recycling salon waste rather than dumping it into trash. It not only makes management easier, but also keeps the environment clean.

More satisfied clients. Clients always feel more confident and comfortable when they walk in a green salon as compared to a traditional salon. They think that in a green salon, they can end up just as beautiful and also help preserve the environment and contribute to a more balanced ecosystem.

There are many more benefits of going towards the Green Hair Salon. So if none of the salons in your area have gone green, take it upon yourself to encourage them to make the transition. ScissorBoy Cosmetology Education has been doing a great job of spreading awareness through their online cosmetology program. You can start by forwarding this article to salon owners and suggesting they begin to carry all natural products and practice safe salon waste disposal methods.

Help in spreading the word about going GREEN and keeping our environment CLEAN!
