Online market analysis by Research and Markets shows that the next few years will see an increasing preference for natural hair and organic hair care products. This trend is driven by growing awareness of the harmful effects of chemical ingredients and a rising demand for products that specifically cater to ethnic hair’s unique needs.
This is important to keep in mind when reviewing what your business offers in terms of services, retail, and add-ons. In this issue, we look at how you can consider expanding your salon’s services to include nails, waxing, and beauty treatments to boost your revenue.
We highlight some of the pitfalls and associated costs, including investing in quality equipment and training staff to ensure you can deliver on service. Sticking with staff issues, we turn to seasoned professionals to look at the prevalence of unpaid work in the industry. This is true globally, and in South Africa, stylists often find themselves working extra hours without compensation, which can lead to burnout and dissatisfaction. We look at ways to keep your team motivated and committed by offering fair compensation for the work and hours they put in.
We bring you some feedback on what happened in Lisbon at Revlon Professional’s Global Front Row Summit and invite you to read on for the best of local product and equipment launches, fashion news, inspirational shows, trend predictions, and a whole lot more!
