Whether you’re trying to establish your own salon or search for one, you need to know what they have to offer. A beauty salon or spa offers several different kinds of treatments and services to address various needs. To be successful, you need to offer at least a basic list of services. Most customers won’t step into a beauty salon than offers only one or two services. They want to get several treatments done at a stretch and that’s not possible if the salon offers limited services.
Here’s a list of the different types of services that are usually available in a beauty salon. This is what any customer would expect to find when they walk into your establishment.
1. Haircut
Naturally, most beauty salons offer this service. Beauticians and hair stylists need to be familiar with different kinds of hairstyles and cuts. They need to be aware of all the modern trends to ensure that they offer the most up-to-date services to their clients. Most stylists also need to be able to improvise and understand how different hairstyles flatter different kinds of facial structures.
2. Hair Colouring
This is the most common service provided in most beauty salons. Most salons colour hair, add highlights, create volume, etc, to enhance the overall appeal. Most clients will also expect you to have different shades and types of colours on hand, even if they’re unusual.
3. Hair Treatment
Customers expect their hairstylists to address any problems with their hair. If they have limp hair, dry scalp, thin hair, etc, they’ll expect you to have a treatment to address the problem. Hair treatments might include keratin treatments, moisturising, hair mask, etc. To run a successful beauty salon, you need to provide several different kinds of hair treatments.
4. Nails
Almost all beauty salons offer the manicure and pedicure treatments. During manicure, the nails on your fingers, the cuticles and the skin on your forearm up to your elbow are treated. In most cases, the nails are filed, the cuticles are softened and pushed back, and colour is applied if needed. During pedicure, the feet are soaked in warm water, the skin, including the lower leg, the heels, and the feet are exfoliated, and the nails receive the same treatment finger nails did during a manicure.
5. Hair Removal
Most beauty salons offer a variety of hair removal services. These include waxing, where hot or cold wax are applied to the skin, a waxing paper is placed on it before it’s quickly pulled back, removing the hair. Other treatments include threading, laser hair removal, and plucking.
6. Facials
Facials are some of the most popular treatments in beauty salons. Different types of facials are performed in most salons. The intention is to have a treatment for every skin type and problems. Facials can be cleansing, anti-aging, hydrating, etc.
