Improving Beauty Parlor Ambiance

The beauty parlor, even during economically challenging times, is one of the last niceties to be slashed when budget cuts become necessary. Here are 4 ways to improve your salon’s atmosphere thus rewarding your clients’ for their loyalty.

Freshen the walls with a coat of paint. This is an inexpensive but effective way to give your salon a face lift. There are paints on the market now that contain low or no volatile organic chemicals which would all but eliminate the fumes that are usually associated with painting.

Replace old or torn styling and dryer chairs with ones that are in better condition. Save money if necessary and buy used equipment that is still in good condition. Keep your eyes open for auctions or sales that will allow you to get the most for your money.

Keep the door closed to your shop. This creates the desired feeling of being away from it all, and shutting out the world if just for a little while. Closing the door prevents dust, dirt, and noise from intruding on a relaxing experience.

Use an air purifier to remove chemical smells, smoke from curling irons, as well as chemicals that are released from materials that are used for manicures and pedicures. Removing the unpleasant and harmful odors that off gas from these products makes your shop smell clean and healthy.

And clean air is good not only for your customers, but for you and your fellow stylists as well.
