Start Your Business With the Following Salon Equipment Checklist
The beauty salon industry was worth a whopping $42.76 billion in 2021 and is expected to grow in 2022.²
Here's a lot of growth potential for your hair salon, and you just need the right growth strategy. A major part of this is highly dependent on the equipment you own.
Here’s the ultimate hair salon checklist for 2022!
Comfortable Chairs for the Salon Stations
Quality services accompanied by comfort are a recipe for success. When customers visit your hair salon, they expect some level of excellence. Most of the time, they’re usually looking for a relaxing escape from their normal lives. You should give this to them!
Pay close attention to your furniture, and in particular the chairs at the salon stations. If they're comfortable, your customers will spend more time on your premises. This will then translate to increased sales.
Service Accessories
Service accessories are a vital element of hair salons. However, without a defined list, it’s easy to forget some of them. You’ll need service accessories such as professional cutting capes, aprons for the staff, premium towels, hand mirrors, hair clips, paddle brushes, etc.
Cleaning Supplies
Cleaning supplies are some of the most important yet often overlooked equipment. Customers tend to define the quality of your services based on how clean your premises are. Once you have these supplies, ensure you create a consistent cleaning schedule and keep your work area tidy.
Warm and Cozy Reception Accessories
Keep your reception warm and cozy to draw in more customers. This is especially important if you tend to have a lot of walk-in customers. Invest in a water dispenser, coffee station, comfortable chairs, great interior decor, and indicative reading materials.
Don't forget to get a reception desk with built-in storage. This is literally the first thing customers will see when they visit your salon.
Cryo-Chamber Equipment
Don't limit your business growth by only offering hair salon services. You should also start offering related services, including cryotherapy. The best part is that you’ll only need to buy a cryotherapy machine. Think about it; you already have the operating premises, employees, and some equipment. You will not incur excessive additional expenses.
Offering related services will help you capture a wider audience. It will also enhance your customer retention rates and increase your market share.
Does Your Salon Equipment Checklist Include a Cryo-Chamber?
Now that the pandemic restrictions are over, the salon business is expected to boom in 2022. Grow your hair salon by offering related services such as cryotherapy, getting high-quality & innovative equipment, and investing in your customer’s comfort.
