With the necessity for hair salons to offer professional and high
quality service to remain competitive in the highly competitive
hairdressing salon market, there are becoming few bad hair salons.
However, with so many to choose from, it can be difficult for people to
find a great salon.
There is definitely a clear distinction
between high quality professional salons and other average haircut
salons. While this may not be apparent in an advertisement, a visit
will quickly help you determine if the salon is a bad one.
One of
the biggest mistakes most people make when choosing a salon and hair
stylist, is not visiting before they book an appointment. There are so
many horror stories about people being brought to tears over a bad
experience. People have had their hair ruined by a bad hair color, bad
haircut, perm, or experience while in the chair.
So, make sure you
check out the salon, ask people who have been there, and take to the
hairstylist before booking and appointment. The last thing you want to
do is realize you made a mistake when you are half way through your
appointment.
How do you avoid booking an appointment with bad hair
salons? You have to know the signs. Go in for a visit and make note of
the following:
Customer Service
Without
customers there would not be a business. Therefore, customer service
must be a priority for every hair salon. Take a look around and look at
the customers. Do they seem happy? Do they look like they are enjoying
themselves? Are they engaged in conversation with their hairstylist?
Beyond
this, think about any interactions you have with the salon staff. Were
they happy to greet you when you arrived? Do they seem generally happy
to be there? Were they accommodating and eager to book you in for an
appointment? Do they offer to show you are and answer any questions you
had?
Great hair salons will always to their best to ease any concerns you have.
Overall Experience
When
you walked into the salon, what was your initial impression? A telltale
sign of a bad salon is the lack of customers. However, beyond this, the
appearance of a salon is important. All great hair salons are clean,
organized, and have a unique appeal. If the hair salon looks dated, the
skills of the hair stylists may be dated as well.
Selection of Services
Good
hair salons have it all. So, if you walk in and all they offer is the
basic cut, color, and blow dry options, you may want to reconsider.
Being able to go to one place for haircuts, waxing, and other aesthetic
services is ideal. If the salons services are limited, they are probably
not up to date about the latest trends and style options.
Avoid a
less than memorable hair salon experience by doing your homework. If
you doubt the quality of a salon even the slightest bit, it may be best
to book your appointment elsewhere.
