Factors to consider when choosing Salon Equipment
Now that you know the pieces of salon equipment that you need and their prices, let’s forge ahead. How do you know that the equipment that you are investing in is worth spending on? After all, there are so many pieces of equipment on the market. You need to watch out for certain factors. We will discuss some of them in this section.
Purpose
The first thing to consider when choosing salon equipment is the “purpose.” What functions do you want that piece of equipment to perform? To answer this question, you must first figure out the kind of salon you want to open and your operations. If you are opening a male salon, there is no need to get equipment for handling female operations.
When determining the purpose of the equipment, you must create space for expansion into other services. If you feel like you will branch into other services in the nearest future, then you should consider purchasing versatile equipment. This way, you get to save on the equipment that you purchase.
Quality
When purchasing equipment for your new salon, ensure that you focus on high-quality products. There is no point investing in equipment when it wouldn’t last. Ensure that these pieces of equipment can provide the services that you need them to provide.
As much as you can, avoid purchasing second-hand equipment except if you trust the seller. We suggest that you purchase products that have a warranty. Asides from the equipment lasting long, poor quality equipment affect customer experience as well as working conditions.
Comfort and style
You should always view your equipment from the standpoint of the customers. How would your customers view your equipment? Do you have a theme for your salon business? How does the equipment that you want to purchase fit into this theme?
If your equipment doesn’t match the style that you want to portray, then there is no point in buying them. The equipment shouldn’t just be stylish, they should be comfortable. Don’t forget that the salon business is a customer-service business. The way your customers feel will determine whether they will give you good reviews or not.
Starting a Salon Business in Nigeria
Starting a salon business in Nigeria isn’t exactly a rosy affair. There are bumps on the way to establishing a top-notch salon. However, with these tips, you should find the process a lot easier.
Feasibility study and business plan
You should never consider starting a business without a detailed feasibility study and business plan. The feasibility study gives you an idea of the industry and what you should expect. Use the results of the study to write a business plan that acts as the map of your business. This plan also helps you to raise funding for your new business.
Find out the local laws guiding the business
Every business no matter how small has rules and laws that guide its operations. You must find out the rules that guide the salon business in your locality. What this means is that you should find the local associations, check for permits, sort out licenses, etc.
Choose your location
Choosing the business location is key to the success of your business. When choosing your location ensure that:
- It is accessible to customers.
- It is located in an area with high human traffic.
- It is close to where you’ll get materials for the business.
Marketing and publicity
If you get everything else right and don’t invest in marketing and publicity, you’d have wasted your effort. You need to develop a plan to make your business popular. Work out how you want to grow your client base before you even set out.
