How to pick a great salon

Picking the right salon shouldn’t be a daunting task. But paying careful attention to details may save you time and money. Here are some factors to consider.

Ask Around
Ask your friends what salon they go to and why they like it. Recommendations from your friends and family can save a lot of time and effort in selecting a great salon for you. Keep a list of your priorities and compare with recommendations to see whether the recommended salon meets your needs.

Location
It should be within a short traveling distance; may be on your way to work or some other activity you frequently attend; and convenient to access without complex turn movements and provides ample parking.

Pay a visit to the salon before making an appointment
Just drop in and chat with an employee. Let them know why you are there. Keep an eye on cleanliness of the interior as well as the restroom. See what equipment they use. Look whether they are displaying their licenses. Most states do require posting of licenses.

Other services
You may be getting other services such as facials, waxing, manicures and massages regularly. See whether the salon offer these services which will be a convenient for you.
