Hair Salon And Spa

A beauty salon or beauty parlor (or sometimes beauty shop ) is an establishment dealing with cosmetic treatments for men and women. Other variations of this type of business include hair salons and spas.

There is a distinction between a beauty salon and a hair salon and although many small businesses do offer both sets of treatments; beauty salons provide more generalized services related to skin health, facial aesthetic, foot care, aromatherapy, — even meditation, oxygen therapy, mud baths, and innumerable other services.

Beauty treatments

Massage for the body is a popular beauty treatment, with various techniques offering benefits to the skin (including the application of beauty products) and for increasing mental well-being and relaxation.

Facials stimulate the skin, relax the client, energize the face and restore the skin to top condition after daily exposure to the elements.

Manicure refers to a treatment for the hands, incorporating the fingernails and cuticles and often involving the application of nail polish.

Pedicure refers to a treatment for the feet, incorporating the toenails and the softening or removal of calluses.

Manicures and pedicures take place at nail salons.

Beauty salons offer treatments such as waxing and threading for hair removal.

Hairdressing

See also: Barber

A hair salon (also called 'Hairdresser' and 'Hair Parlour') is a place where one goes to get the hair cut, as well as styled, highlighted or coloured.

There are many different types of hair salons that one can choose to go to. There are the traditional walk-in salons where you do not have to make an appointment; rather, you simply walk in and wait for the next available hairdresser. Another option is to call a full-service hair salon and make an appointment with the stylist of your choice. Some hair salons specialize in certain areas of hair care, such as coloring, up-dos for formal occasions, cutting or styling. Which salon one chooses will determine the level of expertise being performed for the service.

Salons are in various business forms from sole traders, branches of salons or large franchise owned salon chains. Some larger chains offer their own brand of salon products.

Spa salon

The term spa salon refers to a salon where spa treatments are done. Spa treatments are also offered in some beauty salons. Treatments may include holistic theraphy or Reiki.

Beauty salon products

There are many suppliers to beauty salons, including Vita Derm, Dermastir, Vita Amazonia, Dermalogica, Decléor, products, MD Formulations, Jessica, and Crystal Clear. Each supplier has its own products and various different treatments.

Salon supplies and furniture can also be found online from companies such as Keller International.

The US Labor Department estimates the industry will increase 14% between 2006-2016.
