S

ummer is finally here. And with many clients away on holiday, now is the perfect time to make the most of some downtime in the salon to revise your business strategy and up the ante on your services. In fact it’s absolutely essential to put some plans in place now before the hectic months of September and October begin.

So for that reason we’ve been thinking about key ways to help you improve your business this month. And we have some great expert ideas throughout this issue that you can implement to help your salon stand out from competitiors.

Visual merchandising may be a tool that’s largely linked to retailers. However, salon owners can also make use of this essential strategy to pull new clients in from off the street or to upsell more products to clients.

That’s why we’ve enlisted the expertise of some leading experts to reveal the best ways to direct more people through the doors and more money into the till. So from creating headturning window displays to making your entire retail area an irresistible hub of products, turn to page 42 for some key insider hints and tips.

Meanwhile this month we’ve also been considering the many benefits of offering professional nail services in the salon. Led by product innovation, the nail sector has been

rising in value for the past few years. And in America alone, Nails magazine estimates that the industry is worth $7.47 billion. So whether you’re a hair salon, skincare clinic or a full service enterprise, introducing a simple manicure service can be a great way to bump up your average bill cost and gain some additional revenue. In fact, with the rising popularity of gel-polishes and profit potential reaching over 90 per cent per head, there has never been a better time to consider the benefits of adding nail services to your menu.

We reveal all in our feature on page 30.

Last but not least, this month we’ve also been deliberating the advantages of running a more ethical business. We’re hearing more and more stories of salon owners that have taken the plunge into a greener and leaner way of doing business. And with each one we hear about even more new ways to create a more eco-friendly hair and beauty enterprise.

With many benefits on offer including lower fuel bills and a fresh unique selling point for your salon, don’t miss our feature, 6 ways to run a greener business, starting on page 35.

So if you’re not lucky enough to be jetting away on holiday this month (or even if you are) we hope this issue gives you some food for thought on how to boost your business.

Happy summer!

Hello boys! Fudge stylists set the latest male grooming trends at London Collections: Men

T

he fashion world was left in no doubt that the UK is a leading authority when it comes to male grooming after the capital’s recent instalment of London Collections: Men. Partnered

by British hair care brand Fudge, the three-day male-dedicated event was a riot of fashion and style, which saw the unveiling of the hottest men’s looks for SS14.

Fudge creative director John Vial and James Pecis led a team of stylists backstage at eight shows including seasoned favourites Richard Nicoll, Meadham Kichhoff, James Long and Christopher Shannon as well as Katie Eary, Lou Dalton, HOM and Sibling.

With designers drawing inspiration from everything from military, ‘90s grunge and dandyism to the Royal Air Force and Japan, the hair team created a diverse

range of looks ranging from commercial to the almost avant-garde.

Show highlights included the swimwear collection at HOM by Jonathan Saunders where scantily clad Adonises stepped onto the catwalk looking like they’d just left the beach. The hair team created seasoaked hair using their fingers and Liquid Erekt, Sea Salt Spray and Classic Clay Wax. Meanwhile, the models at Meadham Kirchhoff’s Europe-at-war themed show were split into two camps: a clean Russian sailor of the past and an innocent carefree boy. The first look was short and sharp, created with a deep parting using Hair Gum, Skyscraper and Head Shine while the second nodded to ‘90s-esque curtains and was styled using Fudge Hair Varnish and Shaper Lite.

But the fashion-forward hair looks weren’t confined to the catwalk: Fudge also hosted its own dedicated salon and

lounge area inside The Hospital Club in Covent Garden as well as a second styling station at Victoria House. Both venues offered free blow-dries, styling and dry cuts attracting 600 visitors including the likes of TV presenters Dermot O’Leary and Will Best, model David Gandy, fashion VIPs, press, buyers, and London Collections: Men committee members.

“Everyone involved was brilliant – from the stylists assisting in the Fudge Fix to those assisting backstage,” comments Vial. “I think we really pushed the boundaries this time and displayed such creativity – for example the Christopher Shannon show, which saw us covering the models’ hair with glitter. This season also saw us double the shows that we were involved while still working with designers in keeping with Fudge brand.

It was a pleasure to work with everyone involved.”

INDUSTRY UPDATE Men at work: Aveda Institute launches pop-up barbershop The Aveda Institute in Covent Garden erected a pop-up barbershop in its waiting area last month to coincide with London Collections: Men. The standalone salon space catered for one client at a time offering a range of services including a 45-minute Hair Fix head massage and cut, a Smooth and Soothe cut-throat shave or a 20-minute Express Refresh energising facial. Visitors included members of the press and VIPs, Aveda guests, actor Russell Tovey and model Jack Guinness.

Mark Leeson leads inspirational colour and cutting seminar at the Goldwell Academy London Mansfield-based salon owner Mark Leeson hosted an inspirational seminar last month at Goldwell’s new Academy London in Soho. The Evening With event gave attendees an insight into the award-winning hairdresser’s career, business and talents as he transformed a series of models live on stage while being interviewed by compére William Wilson.

Enlisting Goldwell’s colour systems, Leeson presented five different looks, which included a fiery copper inspired by Christina Hendricks, a directional icy-blonde and violet undercut as well as a fresh take on a ‘20s bob.

The hairdresser, who still regularly works from his Midlands salon seeing clients who travel from as far a field as Europe, said on the night: “It’s our role as colourists to inspire clients and keep them coming back for a professional service. We have to push the industry and trends along to ensure we stay way ahead of the consumer at-home hair colour market.”

Social media update: Facebook embraces hashtags and older users while Instagram introduces video The world of social media is changing and it’s imperative that salon owners keep up, says online expert Valorie Reavis from The Shout Lounge.

The demographic of the users on Facebook is changing significantly: in 2010 the average age of its 1.5 billion active users was 38 but it has now crept up to 41. While Reavis believes this isn’t necessarily bad news for salons, she recommends remaining conscious of the age, gender and location of fans to ensure that posts are relevant.

Meanwhile, the popular social site also introduced clickable hashtags last month – meaning that salons can create conversations that will be accessible to all the site’s users, not just their own fans. “Facebook has always been about permissible friendships; fans had to like your page before you could talk to them,” she says. “But with the hashtag, salons can join a conversation on any subject trending, such as #celebombre or #hair2heart and their post could be seen by others following the same trend.”

Lastly, Instagram introduced bite-sized video last month, which enables users to make 15-second films in addition to posting images. Reavis says it offers salon a owners an exciting way to promote their business. “This shows the Globally renowned Italian hairdryer networks are convinced video is the new way brand Elchim is now available in the to communicate,” she says. “In such a visual UK through Salons Direct. Its powerful industry, being able to showcase the craft in dryers are revered around the world and bite-sized videos is hugely powerful.

MANICURES IMAGE COURTESY OF CREATIVE NAIL DESIGN INC.

The strength of nails Gemma Ward reveals why all salons should be offering manicures WHY SHOULD YOU INTRODUCE MANICURES? • Popularity: the nail industry has grown phenomenally over the past few years and is estimated to be worth $7.47 billion in the US alone • Money: expect to generate around 92 per cent profit (without staff costs) on each service • Loyalty: statistics show that client retention rates rise from 50 per cent to 65 per cent just by introducing another covetable service • Ease: manicures are an easy addon service to introduce with many salons employing freelance or selfemployed nail techs • Space: likewise, even if space is at a premium, manicures can be offered in conjunction with other services at hair stations or inside the treatment room

I

t’s no secret that the nail industry is booming. A recent report published

by Nails Magazine revealed that the nail services market grew by $7.47 billion in the US last year alone. And the most popular service is still the humble manicure.

The rise has been attributed to many factors from Katy Perry’s penchant for quirky nail art to the trend for sharing manicure snaps on social media. But the biggest catalyst for the explosion of nail services has to be the product innovations that have helped to truly revolutionise the market.

Soak-off gel has been around since Bio Sculpture hit the market in the late ‘80s offering its ‘ever lasting manicure’.

However, with the recent introduction of gel-polishes that enable techs to apply the product straight from a bottle, the service has become a huge hit with consumers.

And today as manufacturers continue to refine their systems with removal methods becoming faster and colour options more infinite, they have taken over traditional

polish to become industry standard.

“Nail lacquer has been superseded by UV polish so that customers can keep their nails looking neater for longer,” says Tara Oldham, brand co-ordinator for Alessandro in the UK. “So the need for a salon to have a good UV polish system with a wide variety of colours that does not damage the natural nail is important.”

According to Samantha Sweet from UK CND distributor Sweet Squared, one of the biggest reasons for the popularity of gel-polish is the value they offer clients.

“When CND Shellac landed on the beauty scene in 2010 one of its primary objectives was to enable the consumer to go back into the salon and get a manicure that would last,” she says. “Women had stopped getting manicures because they were sick and tired of paying £25 for something that only lasted two days (and sometimes not even that long). CND Shellac changed all of that by providing a service that would last for 14 days-plus with no chipping and unbeatable flawless shine.”

MANICURES An all-round service The good news is that whatever type of salon you own, introducing manicures – particularly of the gel-polish variety – can be a great way to boost profits. According to Georgie Smedley at Nail Harmony UK, “there is huge profit potential in the nail industry” whether your salon specialises in the area or not. And with each of her brand’s Gelish gel-polish manicures costing the salon around £1.70 in materials and commanding the average price point of £20 to £25, there’s a minimum of £18.30 to be made per set.

That’s 92 per cent gross profit. Likewise, Alessandro’s figures are also sure to appeal to salon owners, with one its luxurious UV polish manicures generating £39.07 profit during just one 60-minute appointment slot.

Such is the profit potential of manicures that René Lipsitz, who heads up the Bio Sculpture brand in the UK, says every type of salon should introduce the service as part of their standard menu. “Substantial profit can be made from manicures due to the small amount of space and product required,” she says. “It is also possible to up-sell and up grade the treatment by adding scrubs, massages and even gel treatments.”

And not only are they lucrative, but manicures have withstood the pressures of the economic climate too. “Nail services are recession proof,” says Smedley. “In my salon people are spending less on the pamper treatments such as facials and are investing in the things that make them look and feel good the longest – their nails.

One treatment will always lead to another too. Why not offer clients a manicure while the colour takes to their hair? It is about maximising every opportunity.”

One salon that’s taking full advantage of the popularity of nail services is the Aveda Institute in Covent Garden. Its manicure bookings have seen an 11 per cent increase over the past 12 months thanks to its position as a ‘one-stop hair and beauty destination.’ “It’s a real mix of new and regular guests that has helped drive this growth, but what they all have in common is they are looking for a quality experience,” says manager Mette Haxthausen. “Our guests also love the fact that we’re a one stop location. Many will utilise this by having a manicure while their colour is processing, perhaps during a working lunch meeting or even a friendly catch up with friends.”

The Richard Ward Hair and Metrospa in Chelsea meanwhile offers manicure services to help build client loyalty.

Manager Gavin Hoare explains: “If we are ignorant to the needs and preferences of our client base, we may lose their business to someone who is not. While we’re primarily in the business of hair, offering one service means your chances of keeping a client for longer than a year are 50 per cent. But by adding on a second service, statistics tells us that retention increases to 65 per cent. The more services you can offer your clients, the higher the client retention becomes.”

And it’s easy for all types of salons to introduce nail services – even if they are short on space. “Manicures do not need a separate room or space – a small nail desk can be set up in a reception area if space is tight,” says Lipsitz. “In hair salons, nail techs can even move around to where the client is having their hair done so that they can have both treatments simultaneously – saving the client’s time and making the most of their visit to the salon.”

Likewise, there are ways to keep staff costs down too. Many salons employ freelance or self-employed nail techs while others rent out rooms or tables, which enables them to offer clients the service without taking on another full-time team member. “To keep salary costs low, salons can take on self-employed nail techs and can charge a day rate for the use of the premises or take an agreed percentage of the earnings,” says Smedley. “By having more nail techs you can increase the foot flow and increase profit.”

Oldham warns that there are some pitfalls to be aware of though: “It is important to think about how you want the business to run,” she says. “If you rent a table to a tech then they will use their own products. Although this takes the responsibility of stock away from you it also means that you lose control over brands, techniques and treatments. You do however have a guaranteed income from the business in the way of the rent. You can also employ someone on a split basis but if you own the stock then the profit share should be in your favour.”

But however you do it, it’s clear that the benefits of introducing nail services are vast. There really has never been a better time to pick up a nail file in the salon.

Glowing reviews Sunless tanning brand Sienna X is making waves in the beauty market thanks to its standout professional solutions and award winning retail line

S

ienna X is the brainchild of founder and CEO Nicola Matthews. Noticing a gap in the market for a portable booth when she set up her own spray tanning business, the entrepreneur manufactured and patented the original pop-up Spray Tan Cubicle. And after initially launching in 2004 as The Spray Tan Cubicle Company, the origins of Sienna X were born.

A vast knowledge of the industry led to Matthews launching Sienna X in 2008 – an independent, fully supported brand designed by a spray tanning professional exclusively for her peers.

Today it has firmly cemented its place as a market leading sunless tanning brand in the UK. Boasting glowing press reviews, a clutch of awards and highprofile event collaboration (with the Brit

Awards and Strictly Come Dancing to name a few), it has grown into a strong, reputable favourite among tanning fans and professionals alike.

The company offers high quality professional spray tanning equipment, self-tan products and solutions in a variety of shades. Its professional solutions are its best selling products and boast a unique formulation, fragrance and longevity while they can be customised to suit all skin tones. Meanwhile, its retail line is split into four categories with hero products including Dark Glowing Self Tan, Instant Bronzing Gel and Radiance Body Balm.

Most recently that brand also introduced the Q10 bronzing mousse, which contains natural ingredients such as blackcurrant, babassu and pomegranate.

GREEN SALONS

ways to run a greener business

Save money (and the planet) by making these simple eco-friendly changes

RECYCLE

In a nutshell: Dispose of your empties wisely Did you know that England alone generates around 228 million tonnes of waste every year? The majority of that eye-watering figure ends up in landfills, which causes toxic fumes to spill out into the atmosphere. But despite councils making it easier for everyone to recycle, the UK is lagging behind the rest of Europe with just 39 per cent – compared to Austria’s 63 per cent – of our municipal solid waste making it to dedicated recycling centres. As a business owner, putting a policy into place is imperative. So if you haven’t already, contact your local council to find out what recycling services are on offer and organise your salon’s waste disposable accordingly. Moreover, compost leftover food and hair, and don’t pour chemicals and products down the sink as it can kill wildlife. Instead, enlist a registered waste contractor to dispose of it correctly.

U USE DISPOSABLE EC ECO-TOWELS In a nutshell: Washing bad, recyclable good The introduction of biodegradable, sustainable, recyclable and disposable pure wood fibre towels revolutionised the industry. Not only are they better for the environment than their cotton counterparts, but switching to eco-towels can save salons money on laundry costs while being more hygienic for clients too. Industry pioneer EasyDry (Easydry. co.uk) recently launched its own Save Our Water Awards to highlight how much its customers can save on consumption.

Since hitting the market five years ago, the brand says its salons have saved more 160 million litres of water – with each receiving a certificate detailing how much they’ve conserved so they can frame it for the wall. There are now various brands on the market from Scrummi (Scrummi.com)

to newcomer SimplyDry (Simplydry.co.uk), which all profess to offer cash savings of up to £2,000 a year. And with starter packs priced from around £30 each, there’s no excuse not to make the switch.

BE MORE CHEMICALLY AW AWARE In a nutshell: Ditch toxic chemicals for greener alternatives According to the Environment Agency, some liquid waste such as peroxide can be toxic and are banned from landfill. To become greener should aim to minimise over-mixing at all times to limit the amount of hair-dye that’s disposed of. Meanwhile, plumping for a more eco-friendly product will also mean that your salon is doing its bit for the environment. Eco-organic concept salon RoCo Hair and Beauty in Derry has taken this idea one step further by creating its own line of hair dye. “One

www.thesalonmagazine.co.uk | 35

GREEN SALONS of the main areas that was important for us to change was ditching the chemical infused traditional colouring methods,” say founders Ronan Stewart and Connor Grant. “Recently we developed our very own sea weed lightener, using local sea weed, which lifts the hair achieving the same results as bleach does but completely eradicating the harsh abrasive effects that comes with it.” The company also manufacturers its own hair care and styling line, OCC, which it wholesales to other salons (E: sales@rocohair.com Rocohair.com)

INVEST IN ECO-CLOTHING In a nutshell: what not to wear We’re all too aware of the adverse affects that fast fashion has on the planet, so it makes no sense for staff to wear clothes from run-of-the-mill high street stores if you’re trying to create a more environmentally friendly business. And while eco fashion brands used to be considered unstylish, the green trend has seen an emergence of labels that successfully combine the two. So if you can’t afford to follow Vigin Atlantic’s lead and commission Vivienne Westwood to create your uniforms, off-the-peg pieces can be found at Komodo (Komodo.co.uk), Nomads Clothing (Nomadsclothing. com) and Nancy Dee (Nancydee.co.uk), which all combine the use of sustainable and organic fabrics with fair trade and environmentally friendly business practices. Meanwhile, if you need uniforms for beauty therapists, try the Manhattan Tunic from Natural Fabrics (£24.50; Naturalfabricsclothing.com).

MIN MINIMISE YOUR ENERGY CON CONSUMPTION In a nutshell: Use less, gain more Using less energy should be at the top of every eco-conscious person’s agenda. But with advancing technology, vastly reducing your energy consumption to minimal levels is a reality. Used by Anne Veck’s salon in Oxford, BlueGen is the UK’s first and only fuel cell based micro combined heat and power unit (microCHP). Running on abundantly available natural gas, this highly efficient unit provides electricity and

36 | www.thesalonmagazine.co.uk

hot water using solid oxide fuel cells at its core. Thanks to its electrical efficiency of up to 60 per cent (which increases up to 85 per cent where the residual thermal energy is used to provide hot water making it ideal for hair salons), it provides the salon with low cost, low carbon energy and up to 200 litres of free hot water every day. “Our salon designer Charlie Hearn suggested we look at BlueGen Ceramic Fuel Cell technology, which generates electricity from the gas supply on site,” says Veck. “While this isn’t a directly green source of power, it is incredibly efficient – saving us 50 – 70 per cent in energy costs and cutting our carbon emissions by half.”

Moreover, because BlueGen is approved for the UK government’s Feed in Tariff scheme, salons will be paid for all the low carbon electricity they generate – which could amount to more than £1,900 per year for the next decade (Tel: 0800 456 1229 Bluegen.info).

In a nutshell: Opt for sustainable, organic and eco-aware partners Select the right brands for your business and you’re half way there to becoming a greener business. Using organic and natural hair and beauty products whenever possible is better for the environment.

And to be absolutely sure that you’re choosing the best for your business, opt for those that are rich in such pure ingredients by selecting those accredited

by Eco-Cert or the Soil Association. But also remember that eco brands should be about much more than just what’s in the bottle, so look out for brands that fly the flag for environmentally friendly practices in terms of waste, sustainability, fair rates for workers, recyclable packaging and overall philosophy. Having launched in 1978, Aveda is a clear frontrunner in this field: “We consider our ingredients to be green because we have constantly sought out and pioneered plant and mineral-based alternatives to petrochemicals,” says UK marketing manager Claire Linney. “Our ultimate goal is to create products that are developed from naturally occurring and sustainable resources that can be sourced, manufactured, used and returned to earth systems without adverse effects.”

The golden ticket Canary Wharf-based salon owner Steven Roberts reveals why Amargan Hair Therapy Oil is the one product he won’t do without

“A

margan Hair Therapy Oil is my salon’s number one best seller and I recommend it to every single client – whether they’re male or female and have thick, fine, straight or curly hair. Its main ingredient is argan oil, which has been used by women in Morocco for centuries and has become renowned for its many benefits for the skin and hair.

“My staff and I use all of the products in the Amargan range in the salon and we also sell it as retail so customers can continue the good work at home. Once they’ve tried it and can see and feel the difference, they are always hooked.

“Another fantastic product in the

Amargan line is the Advanced Styler, which offers all the benefits of a modern mousse but in the form of a nourishing oil.

Being based in Canary Wharf we get lots of high-flying businesswomen visiting our

salon and they want power blow-dries that will go the distance. This product is the best thing for creating a voluminous blowdry that will last and last. Not only does it contain argan oil, but the product is also enriched with keratin to offer smoothing benefits as well as lasting hold that our clients really love. The brand’s newer Ultimate Curl cream is also a key seller for us in the salon and it’s an essential product for clients with naturally curly hair.

“There’s not one person that I’ve used Amargan Oil on that hasn’t benefited. In fact, I even use it on my own hair daily – and you can’t get a much higher recommendation from someone than that.”

Healthy glow Give your profits a boost with Fake Bake’s range of award-winning sunless tanning solutions and home-use retail products

F

ake Bake needs no introduction.

Since Sandra McClumpha brought the US brand to our shores in 2001 it has amassed an army of fans and various awards thanks to its multi-tasking sunless tanning products. Now, with the UK company back under the wing of its American parent, the brand is set for global expansion.

Fake Bake offers an array of tanning solutions, retail products, equipment and marketing materials to help beauty professionals and salon owners carve out lucrative businesses.

The company boasts a dedicated research and development team with over 25 years’ experience that operates in its own laboratory. Previous discoveries

include the combination of erythrulose and DHA to make tans last longer and fade more evenly, and the introduction of a dark guide colour to aid in tan application.

In addition to its choice of five professional spray-tan liquids that enable therapists to tailor each client’s tan, Fake Bake also offers award-winning self-tan and prolonging products to help clients maintain their glow in between salon visits.

“Fake Bake has built its branding on listening to what women want,” says McClumpha. “Over the years we have been asked to bring out a tan to help cellulite, wrinkles or even cover veins. This shows us it’s not just models with perfect skin and legs that use self-tanning – it is very real women.”

To embrace this philosophy, the brand

has launched its Real Women Fake It campaign, which will see McClumpha joined by celebrity judges Josie Gibson and Sam Faiers to find women that are “beautiful both inside and out” to become the new face of the brand.

Follow the high street’s lead and use visual merchandising to boost sales and encourage interest in your business

isual merchandising is one of the most important tools that retailers use to generate sales for their business, so why not adopt the same tactics for your salon?

Up-selling retail products to clients can increase profits without employing another stylist, nail tech or therapist. And using tried and tested visual merchandising methods on the salon floor and in your windows to encourage more sales is imperative for business owners that want to generate more revenue in this testing economic climate.

So what exactly is visual merchandising? Simply put, it relates to how retailers display their product both inside and outside their store. Clever visual merchandisers use special techniques to draw customers in from the street, to entertain them and make them feel comfortable, to show them how to use

STANDING ALONE Mr. Rizzo’s Hari Efthymiades reveals how a separate retail space inside the salon can help generate more sales “We decided to separate the retail area from our main salon to create privacy for our gents as well as capturing opportunities to retail to passing trade outside. As we’ve created a retail store within the salon the possibility to offer multiple brands has also driven sales for us. Each professional product line has its own characteristics and therefore appeals to a wider variety of buyer. We stock some lines that aren’t specifically for men, available to those wives and girlfriends waiting in salon and passing by. We also display retail within our barbering section. For barbering and luxury shaving there are particular brands in salon the team use and retail all at once and to have the entire collection at hand allows freedom to recommend and retail.”

a product, get them to stay as long as possible and, ultimately, entice them into making a purchase.

Used in conjunction with expert recommendation, mastering the art of creating the right environment for your client to buy is the very cornerstone of retailing success.

According to freelance visual merchandiser Elpida Magkoura, who has created displays for the likes of Giorgio Armani, visual merchandising should be used to create an environment that makes shopping a pleasurable experience.

Moreover, it should also heighten your clients’ buying desire. “The majority of spending is generated by what we want rather than what we need,” she says.

“Good visual merchandising does just that: it creates the desire to buy through effective product presentation.”

Rachel Parkin, who runs free independent retail advice site Retailrehab. co.uk, agrees adding: “Customers today want to be entertained and demand inspiration and excitement as a part of their overall experience. With judicious use of creativity, design and product, visual merchandising creates an environment that triggers our impulses to buy while implementing effective design ideas should

increase footfall and increase sales.”

Using displays to help customers navigate around the salon – even if it is only with their eyes from the hair station, backwash, nail table or on the way to the treatment room – is imperative for boosting sales. In short, good merchandising allows customers to see all your merchandise with greater ease.

Parkin says that when devising displays, salon owners should consider combining the three main merchandising techniques – horizontal, vertical and pyramid – alongside ‘live’ displays of products in situ or ‘hero merchandising’ that focuses on one specific product.

“For example, displaying shampoo and conditioner on a shelf might show us the colours and size options (horizontal merchandising), but displaying them on a dressing table or room setting shows customers how they might use them in their life (live merchandising). Whereas hero merchandising might involve a large number of product bottles inside a giant champagne glass, for example, making an everyday product suddenly stand out of the ordinary. In a nutshell, visual merchandising sets the stage for the products to shine.”

(the one right inside the door) always looks fresh and inviting should be the first area to consider when devising inside merchandising plans. “This particular spot is like another window and it’s the display that makes the customer coming in from outside start to slow down and adjust their walking pace, so pull out all the stops for this section,” says Parkin. “Have fun with props, they can enhance your stock and add both interest and value to it, but remember that the stock is the star – it’s easy to get carried away.”

The expert maintains that keeping it simple while still creating something visually impressive is the best course of action. “Anything that’s too complicated whether in terms of colour or product will be difficult to keep looking good, so remember that the idea of the display is to sell the product and make it easy for customers to pick it up and actually touch and look at it,” she says.

Meanwhile, Sarah Manning, senior course instructor for Visualmerchandisingcourses.co.uk, says having one central walkway will help guide customers through the salon so there’s a clear journey in place to direct them to the reception desk. “Also look at creating zones to help separate types of product or group by collection,” she says. Mixing up display units so there’s a myriad of

eye-catching products on show can help increase interest further. “Use a variety of different equipment to merchandise your stock,” she adds. “For example, use tables together with slat wall equipment, which will help to soften the overall environment.”

But one of the most important aspects of visual merchandising is creating a tidy space that doesn’t overwhelm the customer. “Keep product organised and make it easy for customers to find,” says Magkoura. “If you do not have enough space do not try to display everything – it is much more important that the product looks good rather that being able to have on display every single item you have in stock. Overcrowding your shelves does not work. Not replenishing and having empty shelves is just as bad.”

GARY INGHAM, HAMPSTEAD

HOW TO CREATE WOW FACTOR WINDOWS Visual merchandising expert Julia Sugden offers her top tips…

• Your window should communicate your brand personality. It’s a free billboard to grab people’s attention, generate excitement and entice them inside. It only takes three seconds to make an impression – 80 per cent of that is visual.

• Shoppers are attracted to colour as it not only gets their attention but also creates a mood. It’s proven that the eye can only register three colours at once, so bear this in mind when displaying your products.

• An effective way of creating seasonal displays is through the colours we associate with those events so think red and pink for Valentine’s Day, and red and gold for Christmas.

• If in doubt, display products and props in a triangular formation.

It’s proven that the triangular composition is pleasing to the eye.

And remember we see things at eye level first.

• Create balance and symmetry.

Another proven fact is that symmetrical displays are more attractive.

• It’s important to remember visual merchandising shouldn’t just finish at the windows. The theme should run throughout the entire inside salon space too.

BUSINESS TIPS

Great minds

Sharing opportunities, knowledge and enthusiasm will see your business reap the rewards, says Ena and Allilon directors Pedro Inchenko and Johnny Othona

I

n any business the practice of sharing is of the utmost importance.

But in the salon world, it’s paramount.

The industry is a constant evolution, underpinned by its collective creative knowledge, which needs to be shared for the industry to truly flourish. At Ena and Allilon, which we established in October 2009, sharing plays a lead role. Ena is our consumer-facing salon and is also the UK flagship for eco-friendly Italian haircare manufacturer Davines, while Allilon is our educational academy dedicated to delivering high-quality training to students from around the globe.

Speak the same language Our aim was always to create a company built on connection and a sense of being as one. Ena is Modern Greek for one, while Allilon is Ancient Greek for one to another. Sharing is our passion and the ethos on which we have built our business – one goal, one voice, one team and one dream. We work in synergy and encourage a culture that can cultivate this at all levels of the business.

Work in synergy Working in partnership with key people outside of your business is also important, allowing you to build relationships and encourage the practice of sharing

knowledge. At Ena we work synergistically with our product manufacturer Davines to ensure we offer clients the best the brand has to offer, while at Allilon we collaborate with key educators and industry names to ensure we are always at the forefront of technical innovation and education.

Our businesses also work hand-in-hand, catering for two different markets. One allows people to be hairdressers while the other develops the skills of those that want to become one. Look at the key areas of your salon and build relationships with the people or companies that can help your business grow. Utilise any support networks on offer such as staff training programmes in areas such as product knowledge or colour so your staff can cascade their knowledge down to other members of your team. Knowledge is king, but it needs to be shared to help your business evolve, so make sure everyone knows your expectations.

The real deal We have always tried to maintain the human aspect of what we do; rather than positioning our brands as untouchable, we have worked hard to ensure we are accessible. Make sure that the development of your staff is a key part of what you do. While building a successful brand is key it’s also important to measure

your success on the security and career paths you can offer your team. Our goal has always been to create a sustainable model that gives each member of staff room for growth. It’s about offering stability and safety alongside creativity and opportunities. None of us invented hairdressing, we all inherited knowledge and it should be our goal within the industry to share our knowledge as much as we can.

Opportunity knocks Alongside sharing, offering opportunities is an important aspect of our business.

We recognise people are motivated by different things – whether it’s money, time or experiences – and opportunities will help them grow. Some people hate change while others embrace it, so develop a system that allows both cultures to flourish. It’s also important to recognise and reward. In the past year the Allilon Education team has travelled to 20 countries to educate and work on platform shoots and shows. Make sure you are conscious of the people you work with – they are your future so it will pay to make every effort to ensure their journey is as dynamic and fulfilling as possible.

Pedro Inchenko and Johnny Othona are co-directors of Ena and Allilon based in central London.

MANAGER PRO

Drive time

Steve Rowbottom reveals why motivation is one of the biggest buzzwords at Westrow

“A

t Westrow we understand that the brand is a reflection of ourselves, and that the ethos we breed at the top levels of the company will be cascaded down the business as a whole. We strive to be motivational in all areas – from retailing and recognition to teamwork and training – no area is left untouched by our desire to strive for excellence, and we encourage imaginative thinking to ensure the business flourishes at all levels. However, as a business grows and staff numbers increase, it can become harder to ensure everyone is on the same page – which is why we work on motivating at the top level so that our managers and franchisees can in turn motivate their staff to achieve and succeed.

“We have found in business that most people love to learn, and the creativity inherent in hairdressing naturally encourages the practice of sharing. If people have the right knowledge, skills and attitudes then they will be well equipped to do the jobs you want them to do – and to do them well.

“At Westrow we truly have everyone’s interests at heart. We want our staff to be successful, but also to experience the things we never had to opportunity to do when we set up in business, such as travel, educate, work at London Fashion Week and enter and win awards. Back then we were too busy laying down the foundations for our business.

“Westrow is an evolution and we are continually looking at ways we can further our people’s careers. We are incredibly

46 | www.thesalonmagazine.co.uk

“We recognise that our team is bigger than any individual – and that includes us – so we listen to our staff and create bespoke opportunities to suit the individual”

passionate about our business and fiercely protective about the brand. We have never diversified from what we believe in.

We never ask our staff to do anything we are not prepared to do and always put ourselves last so we can continually work on developing and creating opportunities so that those who strive to achieve can do so.

“We recognise that our team is bigger than any individual – and that includes us – so we listen to our staff and, where possible, create bespoke opportunities

to suit the individual. We always want to be the best and never stop trying to achieve. Maintaining standards is not enough, we have to increase them and be remembered for what we do.

We are meticulous within business and hairdressing and encourage and motivate our staff to be the same. We try to instil confidence, not arrogance, and believe that open lines of communication encourage a close-knit team.

“We have always recognised the potential in young people, which is why we educate, motivate, create and innovate so that the future of our business is in safe hands.

“Our own motivation comes from the fact that, after 25 years in business, we still love what we do. We started out with nothing so hope that we have set the benchmark to our staff of what hard work, discipline and dedication can achieve.

We began the business without realising we would be creating a long-lasting brand that offers endless opportunities to our staff and this has become a huge motivator for us. At present we have more than 100 people in our team. But with three new salons in the immediate pipeline and the 5,000sq ft Westrow Academy opening in central Leeds next month, we estimate we could be employing another 40-50 people within the next year, which means the opportunities for our staff will only continue to grow.”

Steve Rowbottom has more than 30 years’ experience in the hairdressing industry and is co-director of the Westrow hairdressing group, which operates seven salons across Yorkshire.

EDUCATION

Help is at hand Tina Rook, head of education at Saks Apprenticeships, reveals how easy – and rewarding – it can be to take on an apprentice

“T

aking on an apprentice can be extremely rewarding. You can not only nurture and help develop the learners’ skills, but they can become an invaluable asset to your business. You need to make a commitment to support your apprentice with on-going training and to pay them an apprentice wage as a minimum. But there is help available as the government is currently very focused on apprenticeship programmes.

“If you do decide to take on an apprentice, you may be entitled to a government-funded grant of £1,500 per learner. And for a limited time, enhanced grants of £3,000 are available for Londonbased employers – awarded on a first

come first served basis while funding lasts.

This is something that Saks Education can apply for on your behalf.

“Apprenticeship programmes are a brilliant way to achieve qualifications while gaining hands-on real life work experience.

At Saks Apprenticeships we deliver training in the salon so there’s no need for day release, we’ll come to your workplace.

We’re here to provide support for both the employer and the apprentice – it’s really important to us that both parties are happy working together.”

Lashings of potential Add WinkWink Semi-Permanent Mascara to your beauty repertoire to offer clients high impact lashes that last up to three weeks

A

lthough semi-permanent eyelash extensions suit many clients, others are uncomfortable wearing them.

Now, however, salons can introduce the WinkWink Semi-Permanent Mascara service by Hollywood Lashes, which offers fuller-looking lashes for special occasions without the fuss of constantly reapplying make-up or wearing lash extensions.

Professionally applied in just 20 minutes, Wink Wink SemiPermanent Mascara will last up to three weeks before the client comes back to the salon for professional removal.

Using a unique pre-blended compound, the product contains

special fibres that give the natural lashes length and thickness with flexibility and shine. And for a fuller look with more volume, therapists can simply build up the

layers. And because WinkWink’s adhesive blend holds up to 30 per cent more fibres than some other brands on the market, the company claims that fewer layers are needed to create truly dramatic effects.

Hollywood Lashes offers comprehensive half-day training courses around the country for £199, which includes a 100 Application Kit containing everything needed to add the service to your menu. The service commands around £25 per client – making the potential turnover from the first investment worth £2,500.

FELLOWSHIP

Making a change Fellowship president Errol Douglas reveals why change is essential in the fast-paced world of hairdressing

“C

hange can be scary and daunting. But in an industry as exciting and diverse as hairdressing, it’s important to stay ahead of the game. Trends, fashion, education, technology and products are constantly changing and to many, this can seem unnerving. But that is one of the many things that makes this craft so exciting, right?

“Becoming a member of the Fellowship is to be part of a community that constantly shares, evolves, experiments and changes. And at the heart of the Fellowship’s success is its dedication to nurturing young talent through different clubs, events and promotions. By joining the Fellowship, you are opening yourself

up to a world of activities, support and inspiration — something that everyone including teachers and students alike can benefit from.

“One thing I’ve learnt over the years is that education never ends. With every new hairdresser I meet, I get to see a new way

Get Into Gear

of viewing the industry, a shot, a trend, a skill — we should always be learning from each other to be the best that we possible can.

“I’m really excited about the coming months and what they hold for the Fellowship — so many of our members will be jetting off around the world to work at various Fashion Weeks plus we also have Salon International, the Signature Stylist competition and much more to look forward to.

“But change works both ways so I’m delighted to say that the Fellowship is constantly progressing from the variation of events on offer to our appearance.

Keep your eyes peeled for a new look magazine and website that will hopefully be launching in September.”
