Hair Color Services
Salon hair color has undergone a renaissance in the last five years. Gone are the days when women simply came in for gray coverage or a few highlights. Thanks to social media, women now charge into the salon armed with Instagram screenshots of their favorite celebrity stylist’s work–and they ask for techniques by name.
Balayage, specifically, has overtaken the realm of highlights and blonding. If you don’t have at least a few stylists who specialize in this technique…You. Are. Missing. Out.
Specialty hair color comes with a higher price tag and gets your stylists’ work tagged on social media, creating a buzz for your salon. More importantly, if you can’t deliver what your client asks for, she will go elsewhere…

Hair Texture Services
While texture services reached their peak in the ’80s with permanent waves, there is still a huge demand for these methods, namely keratin smoothing.
Brazilian Blowout initially created the buzz for this technology, but questionable toxicity of ingredients has prompted many companies to launch gentler, more natural versions of the service.
30. KERATIN SMOOTHING:
Non-permanent chemical service that softens course hair and reduces frizz while allowing natural texture to remain. Keratin smoothing makes the hair much easier to blowdry and style. Includes blowdry finish.
*Recognizable brand name for this service is Brazilian Blowout
31. JAPANESE STRAIGHTENING:
Lasting up to 7 months, this method breaks and reshapes protein bonds to permanently alter the structure of the hair. Suitable for clients who want a long-lasting, very straight result. Application takes several hours and must be booked upon consultation.
32. CHEMICAL WAVING:
A safe way to achieve long-lasting curls or waves and reduce styling time. A gentle formula is applied to hair that has been wrapped to achieve a customized curl pattern.
*Recognizable brand name for this service is American Wave
Hair Extension Services
Extensions vary dramatically by method, hair quality, and price. Types of extensions include temporary clip-in or halos (often used for special event styles), tape-in, hand-tied or sewn, and fusion.
There’s a huge variety of companies offering extensions with their own hair and application methods–it’s a matter of choosing what is right for your guest and your salon. Fusion extensions are the most time-consuming application method and hair is usually premium, making it a luxury service . Hand-tied and tape-ins are slightly more affordable for the guest, and offer a quicker installment for the stylist, while still using high-quality human hair. Temporary extensions are the most budget-friendly option, but only offer the guest a limited time frame of wearability
Once a hard to find specialty service, extensions have become a mainstay in salons, and you should consider offering at least one type in your salon.
Not only is the installation profitable, but the client must return frequently to maintain her extensions, which boosts retention and additional sales opportunities.
33. TEMPORARY EXTENSIONS: PRICED BY CONSULTATION
Wefts are clipped in (or applied as a halo) to the hair and styled to blend. Temporary extensions are a great no-commitment option for a special event, photoshoot or just a night out! Service includes extensions (custom ordered to match perfectly), dry cut, application, and style.
34. TAPE-IN EXTENSIONS: PRICED BY CONSULTATION
Tape-in extensions are a quick and easy way to get volume and/or length with a natural-looking result. High quality pre-taped human hair wefts are priced per pack, and custom-ordered to match hair perfectly.
Once applied, the tapes can continuously be moved up as the hair grows. Service is priced by consultation and includes the hair, application, haircut to blend extensions, style, and take-home care products.
*Some of the many companies who offer tape-in extensions and training for the stylist include Babe, Donna Bella, Hair Dreams, Hot Heads and Great Lengths.
35. FUSION EXTENSIONS: PRICED BY CONSULTATION
Fusion extensions are tiny wefts applied using a keratin bond, providing an ultra-natural finish and the most flexibility for wear and styling.
Application usually takes several hours, and results can last for 2-4 months with proper care. Wefts may be reused up to three times. Service is priced by consultation and includes the hair, application, haircut to blend extensions, style, and take-home care products.
