Starting you Hair Salon made easy

Picture
People seek beauty. They are constantly looking to improve what they have or give themselves a whole new look. They drop by the nearest hair and beauty salon to be pampered by stylists and beauticians to style their tresses, shape their eyebrows, and color their nails – all for a few (or more) bucks. An hour in a hair and salon shop every month and one emerges confident and ready to take on the world. 

 It is no wonder that hair and salon business remains one of the rapidly growing industries today. According to the Service Annual Survey of the Bureau of Census, the U.S. hair, nail and skin care services saw a growth spurt in 2001, with revenues increasing by 78 percent from 2000.

In 2001, the industry reached $25.3 billion in revenues. Of this number, sales receipts from barbershops totaled $2.1 billion; beauty salons at $20.8 billion; and nail salons at $2.5 billion. According to industry insiders, the growing popularity of day spas account for the increase in sales on the hair and salon industry.

The hair and salon business can be started with moderate capitalization. Success in this venture depends on the ability to provide a consistently high customer satisfaction. The successful hair and salon business is one that offers excellent service, use quality products, and provide an enjoyable atmosphere at an acceptable price. Customers of this type of business are willing to pay for a higher price to an operation that can satisfy the client’s desire for improved physical appearance and even mental relaxation.
