If you have a hairdressing salon, you will probably have all the hairdressing furniture and equipment you need. If you’re setting up your first salon or renovating your salon, this is what you need.
1. Having the right salon chairs is important, and you’ll want to make sure that your chairs are adjustable, comfortable, and suitable for your clients. A salon for young professionals in the center of the city will have different types of chairs than a salon aimed at seniors in a rural town.
2. The reception furniture of your hairdresser is the first impression that your clients have of your salon. You need to make sure that your reception sofa and chairs are not worn, dirty or falling apart. By making your clients feel welcome and comfortable, they are much more likely to enjoy a haircut and return to your salon.
3. Your washing areas must be functional and have all the facilities that you and your staff need to be able to wash your clients’ hair well. You may want to go for sleek modern units, or go for something more traditional, depending on your clientele.
4. Styling areas are also important, and will be where your clients get their hair cut. You’ll want to make sure your design areas have plenty of space and that they fit in with your décor and client expectations.
5. Mirrors are also vital in any hairdressing salon, and you will need many mirrors of different sizes. In addition to wall-mounted mirrors, you’ll also want handheld mirrors. Why not see which sizes and styles will fit your interior and which will benefit your customers the most?
6. All hairdressers need good hairdressing scissors, combs and brushes, so you’ll need to make sure that you and your staff have the hairdressing equipment they need to cut and style hair. It doesn’t matter if you’re an experienced stylist, a new barber, or the type of salon you work in, you’ll need to have the right type of scissors to get the results your clients are paying for.
7. Trolleys are a great way to store all the essential hairdressing supplies that every stylist will need. By keeping everything handy and tidy, your staff will stay organized and better meet the needs of your customers.
8. Good quality hair dryers are worth it. Because they are worn all day every day, they need to be durable and reliable. By choosing wisely, you can ensure that your hair dryers last.
9. Depending on the type of hairstylist you are, you may also need hood dryers for your clients. If you only cut men’s hair, you’re much less likely to benefit from hood dryers.
10. Having enough storage space for towels, hair products, gowns, and all the other essentials in your salon is vital. You’ll need your salon to look tidy, your stylists organized, and easy to find what you’re looking for. If your salon is messy and disorganized, it may discourage clients from returning.
