If you run a hairdressing or beauty salon, then you'll already know the hair products and beauty products that you need, and that your clients expect. If you're opening a salon, or want to achieve the same sort of professional results at home, then here's what you need to consider.
1. You'll need the right sort of hairdressing scissors and hair clippers so that you can achieve the styles that you or your customers want. With different sorts available, you'll need to think about performance, comfort and durability as well as price.
2. The brushes and combs you use will need to be up to the job too. You might want different sorts of brushes for helping you create different hairstyles and for brushing different sorts of hair.
3. Whether you're looking for hairdryers for your salon, or a decent one for using at home, you'll want to make sure that your hairdryer is up to the job, and dries hair efficiently without damaging it.
4. If you're a hairdresser then you'll want to make sure that the straighteners you use heat up and cool down quickly and are suitable for using all day every day in a salon environment. If you're looking for hair straighteners for home, you'll want them to be easy to use and efficient, and effective to achieve the styles you want.
5. If you dye your hair, then you might go to a hairdressing salon to have your hair coloured properly, or you might choose to colour your hair yourself. You'll want to make sure that the colours you choose don't damage your hair, and give you the look you want.
6. If you own a beauty salon then you'll offer a wide range of skincare treatments to your clients, to give them the results they want. With many new procedures and treatments available, have you got all the salon equipment and beauticians you need?
7. Although sunbathing is frowned upon, and sunbeds can cause skin problems, your clients still might want to have a healthy glow all year round. Are you offering tanning treatments? If you don't run a salon, do you use spray tans yourself to give yourself a bit of colour?
8. You'll want to make sure that you have all the manicure and pedicure products you need, whether you're a beautician or just want your hands and feet to look good. From hand creams to nail growth treatments there's plenty to think about.
9. If your salon offers hair removal treatments, have you got all the waxing or shaving products you need to give your clients the service and treatments they need? What about using electrolysis as an alternative to shaving or waxing.
10. It's important that your salon has the right hairdressing or beauty salon furniture so that your staff and clients are comfortable and can give or receive their treatments effectively to give good results.
Now you know more about the sort of products and equipment you need for your salon, or to give you salon results at home, have you got the right hair products and beauty products?
