Christmas Look Book 2024: Top Trends for the Festive Season



The holiday season is here, and a Christmas Look Book can be your salon’s secret weapon for inspiring clients and boosting bookings. Here are some trends that can help you shine this season!

 

1. Glow All Season

For tanning salons, showcasing different tanning options such as spray tans, gradual lotions, and bronzing treatments is a great way to give clients a natural, sun-kissed look, perfect for holiday parties or winter getaways.

 

2. Feature Seasonal Salon Offers

Use the Look Book to promote holiday service packages, gift cards, and festive product bundles. Holiday packages that combine hair, makeup, and nails make perfect gifts or ready-made makeovers for holiday events. Showcase loyalty perks like discounts or points for the New Year to encourage repeat visits.

 

3. Inspire Winter Self-Care

Highlight seasonal treatments for winter dryness like hydrating masks, conditioning treatments, or scalp care. Suggest take-home products for clients to pamper themselves and keep their hair holiday-ready. Offering creams and including seasonal skincare tips, like moisturising routines to maintain an even tan is also great to offer clients during these colder months.

 

4. Showcase Holiday Hair Trends

Clients love fresh ideas for holiday styles! Feature seasonal colour trends like warm caramel highlights or icy blondes, along with festive hairstyles like glam curls, braids, and elegant updos. Add photos with hair accessories—like sparkling pins and jewelled headbands—to give clients festive style inspiration.

 

5. Promote Holiday Makeup Looks

Offer makeup looks that sparkle. Highlight classic red lips, smoky eyes with metallic shimmer, and bold glitter looks. Include mini-tutorials or tips to inspire clients to book a makeup session or try a new festive style.

 

We hope these tips gave you some ideas for what you can offer in your salon during the festive season!

Enterprise Features on Salon Tracker


This weeks blog is going to focus on how our customers have benefited from upgrading to our Enterprise Subscription. 

For those of you who aren’t aware, our Enterprise Subscription includes our Online Booking and Siteview features, as well as access to Cloud Storage. 

Over the course of the past few months we have had numerous customers upgrading to the Enterprise package, specifically for the ability to use Online Bookings.

Because who doesn't love the idea of getting bookings in even when your salon is shut?


Online Bookings

Our customers see a significant growth in bookings when they introduce the online booking system into their salon as, naturally, online booking offers customers the flexibility of being able to book an appointment at any time of the day. There are several other benefits of introducing an online booking system, such as reduced phone calls and emails, as customers are able to book at their own accord instead of contacting you and your team. For those of you that own Tanning Salons, customers are able to see their remaining minutes on their account. Customers also have the ability to see your opening hours and an interactive map view of where the salon is for those that may not have visited before.

Siteview

Our Siteview feature is one that has been useful to our customers for years now. With this feature you are able to view all your customer records, your calendar  and even generate all your reports so you can view your sales from the comfort of your own home. We also offer the option to book, edit and cancel bookings straight from your phone through Siteview. 

This feature is perfect for all salons, so that if you get messages away from the salon you can still book clients in. Further, for anyone with self-employed stylists or beauticians, it can be set so that they can only view their own columns on the calendar, ensuring that double bookings aren’t being added. The calendar view will also allow employees to view their working hours, this is great for those of you that work in a rota format, as employees can quickly and easily check what days and times they’re working.

The Siteview app is ideal for taking a quick overview when you’re away from the salon, enabling you to look at a dashboard of the days takings, bookings and customers, as well as being able to see the reports.

Cloud Storage

With the Enterprise package you also get cloud storage. This means that if anything were to happen to your PC or laptop your data would be safely stored on the cloud where we can restore it for you on a new Salon Tracker. This is great for if you run into any trouble. You just have to make sure when shutting down Salon Tracker that your data is synced online.


Multisite


If you are a multisite, the Enterprise package is the perfect option for you
! With Enterprise you are able to link your sites together so customers can use their minutes in any of your salons if you so wish.

If you have 3 or more sites you are also entitled to a free HQ when they are on our Enterprise package. This means you can access all of your sites on Salon Tracker to see your bookings, takings and reports. This is great for when you are unable to head into the salons and need to see what's going on!


If you would like to take a look at our Enterprise package in further detail don’t hesitate to contact us to get booked in for a free demo and trial on 0113 350 8230, or alternatively you can email info@salontracker.co.uk.

How to Maintain a Sun-Kissed Glow: Autumn 2024 Look Book



As the leaves change and the air turns crisp, it’s easy to miss that radiant summer glow. But just because summer is over doesn’t mean your tan has to be! Autumn is actually the perfect time to keep your skin looking beautifully bronzed—without worrying about damaging sun exposure. Let’s dive into how you can maintain that gorgeous, sun-kissed glow all season long, effortlessly.

1. Offer sun sessions for a Flawless Glow

As the days grow shorter and cooler, spending time in the sun isn’t really an option. That’s where tan beds come in!

At your salon you can showcase the opportunity to give your customer the perfect bronze tan —whether you want a light, subtle glow or a deeper tan that looks like you just came back from vacation.

 

2. Extend Your Tan with Tanning Lotions

To help your tan last longer, we recommend using a high-quality tanning lotion. Hydration is key when it comes to maintaining a glowing tan as dry skin can lead to faster fading and uneven patches. In your salon you can offer a variety of lotions that not only hydrate your skin but also help your tan stay fresh and even!

Pro tip: Let your customers know that they should exfoliate before applying your tanning lotion! It’ll help remove dead skin cells, allowing the cream to go on smoother and their tan to last longer.

 

3. Autumn-Ready Skin Prep

Your skin changes with the seasons, and autumn is the time to shift to more nourishing and hydrating products. After the sun-soaked days of summer, your skin might be feeling a little dry or damaged. The cooler air doesn’t help, either! Salons can offer rejuvenating body treatments and facials that are perfect for prepping skin for a long-lasting tan.

Offering treatments or products in your salon with ingredients like aloe vera, shea butter, and vitamin E is great during Autumn. These ingredients will replenish and repair their skin during these colder, dryer months.

 

4. Embrace the Warm, Autumn Glow

One of the best things about autumn tanning? The warm, golden tones that complement autumnal fashion so beautifully. Whether you’re layering cosy sweaters or rocking a new lipstick, that hint of bronze on your skin will make everything pop.

We love pairing a fresh tan with rich autumn colours like burgundy, mustard, and olive green—hello, ultimate autumn vibes!

 

5. Pamper Yourself with a Seasonal Spa Day

Why not treat yourself to a full beauty refresh this autumn? Pair your tanning session with a hydrating facial, a body scrub, or even a mani-pedi for the ultimate seasonal self-care day. You’ll leave feeling refreshed, glowing, and ready to take on all the autumn activities with a radiant complexion.

 

If you are interested in getting booked in with us for a free demonstration or 2 week free trial of our software then just give us a call on 0113 350 8230 or drop us an email at info@salontracker.co.uk!

How Social Media can Benefit your Salon



In today’s digital age, having a strong social media presence is essential for any business, including beauty and tanning salons. Social media offers an unparalleled opportunity to connect with your clients, showcase your services, and build a loyal community. Whether you’re new to social media or looking to enhance your current strategy, here’s a guide on how to use social media to benefit your salon.



Showcase Your Work with High-Quality Visuals

Salons thrive on visual appeal, making platforms like Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok ideal for showcasing your work. Post high-quality photos and videos of your services—whether it's a stunning before-and-after tan, a flawless manicure, or a trendy haircut. Use professional lighting and consider investing in a good camera to ensure your images are sharp and vibrant. Regularly updating your feed with fresh content keeps your audience engaged and showcases the range of services you offer.

Engage with Your Audience

Social media is not just about posting content; it's about building relationships. Engage with your audience by responding to comments, answering questions, and thanking clients for their positive feedback. You can also use polls, Q&A sessions, and live videos to interact with your followers in real-time. By being responsive and interactive, you show that your salon values its customers, which can lead to increased loyalty and word-of-mouth referrals.

Promote Special Offers and Discounts

Social media is a powerful tool for promoting special offers, discounts, and seasonal deals. Create eye-catching posts or stories that highlight your promotions, and encourage your followers to share them with their networks. You can also run exclusive social media contests or giveaways to attract new clients. For example, offer a free service to a randomly selected follower who shares your post or tags a friend. This not only boosts engagement but also increases your salon’s visibility.

Leverage User-Generated Content

Encourage your satisfied clients to share their experiences on social media and tag your salon. User-generated content (UGC) is a powerful form of social proof that can help attract new clients. Repost these photos or testimonials on your own social media pages to showcase real-life examples of your work. UGC not only builds trust but also creates a sense of community around your brand.

Educate and Inspire with Content

Beyond showcasing your services, use social media to educate and inspire your audience. Share beauty tips, skincare routines, and tanning advice that can add value to your followers' lives. You can also post behind-the-scenes content to give a glimpse into your salon’s daily operations, or highlight the expertise of your staff. Educational content positions your salon as an authority in the industry and builds trust with potential clients.

Use Hashtags Strategically

Hashtags are essential for increasing the discoverability of your posts on platforms like Instagram and Twitter. Use a mix of popular and niche hashtags related to beauty, tanning, and your local area to reach a broader audience. For example, #BeautySalon, #Tanning, and #YourCityName can help your posts appear in relevant searches. Creating a unique hashtag for your salon can also encourage clients to tag their photos, further boosting your brand’s visibility.

Track Your Performance and Adjust Your Strategy

Social media platforms offer built-in analytics tools that allow you to track the performance of your posts. Pay attention to metrics such as engagement rates, reach, and follower growth to understand what content resonates most with your audience. Use this data to refine your strategy, posting more of what works and adjusting what doesn’t. Regularly reviewing your social media performance ensures that your efforts are driving real results for your salon.

Run Paid Social Media Campaigns

While organic reach is important, investing in paid social media campaigns can give your salon an extra boost. Platforms like Facebook and Instagram offer targeted advertising options that allow you to reach specific demographics based on location, interests, and behaviors. A well-crafted ad campaign can attract new clients, promote upcoming events, or increase bookings for specific services. Start with a small budget, and experiment with different ad formats to see what works best for your salon.

Build a Community

Ultimately, the goal of your social media presence should be to build a community around your brand. Encourage your clients to follow your pages, interact with your posts, and share their experiences. Host virtual events, like live beauty tutorials or Q&A sessions, to foster a sense of connection. By creating a community, you turn one-time visitors into loyal clients who will keep coming back to your salon.

Social media is a powerful tool that can significantly benefit your beauty or tanning salon. By showcasing your work, engaging with your audience, and leveraging the right strategies, you can increase your salon's visibility, attract new clients, and build a loyal customer base. Whether you're promoting special offers, collaborating with influencers, or educating your followers, social media offers endless opportunities to grow your salon business. Start implementing these tips today to see how social media can transform your salon’s success.

Summer Self Care with Salon Tracker


As summer rolls around once again, summer beauty treatments such as spa days can be beneficial for our mental and physical well-being. The hotter temperatures in combination with the increased sun means that social events become more frequent and we risk exhausting ourselves if we disregard our usual fitness and wellness routines to pencil in new social events. Fortunately, there are several ways to maintain your wellness while still enjoying everything summer has to offer.



With such a full calendar, making sure to find time for ourselves is of the utmost importance. Taking a visit to a spa can be the perfect way to relax from the hustle and bustle of everyday life. Spa treatments, including skin and hair treatments and massages, also offer many physical benefits as well as rejuvenating your mind. In the summer months, exposure to the weather’s drying effects leave our skin in need of moisture. Applying creams and moisturisers to counteract this can cause our faces to feel clogged and heavy. Spa facials help protect and repair your skin by improving exfoliation, removing impurities, cleansing and increasing elasticity of the skin leaving you feeling rejuvenated. The spa day is a holistic approach to maintaining your well-being during the busy summer months.



Not every summer day will be filled with sunshine, and for those who still wish to maintain golden, glowing skin, tanning salons can keep you looking radiant despite non-ideal weather. 

Meanwhile, salon treatments offer a variety of services to get you feeling pampered and polished, from manicures and pedicures to hair coloring and styling. These treatments ensure that you don't have to rely on the summer sun to look your best. If the weather is gloomy, a visit to the salon can also keep spirits high and provide a perfect escape from any unwanted showers.



Summer is also a perfect time to strengthen bonds with loved ones, which can significantly boost your mental health. Spending quality time with friends and family, whether through casual gatherings, outdoor activities, or simply enjoying each other’s company, can enhance your emotional well-being. Social interactions are proven to reduce stress, increase happiness, and foster a sense of belonging. These connections not only bring joy but also provide a vital support system, causing you to smile more and worry less, which is essential for a balanced and fulfilling summer.


While summer brings plenty of fun and socialising, it’s important to balance these with wellness routines that nourish both body and mind. Rejuvenating spa days, salon treatments and quality time with loved ones all nurture your mental and physical health. Incorporating these activities into your summer routine will aid you to enjoy the season to its fullest without compromising on your well-being.

The Best Kept Salon Secrets!


You're probably wondering what these secrets are... and why you don't know them already. 


The thing is, although salons are very similar in what they do, they can be very different in how they do things. Therefore what works well for some may not for others, so we've spoken to a number of salons and gathered together just what it is that they think keeps their salon busy regardless of how small or big a thing it is...

  • Treat being a stylist/ therapist/ beautician as your hobby and not your job!

When your job is all about making someone look and feel good about themselves you begin to get the same feeling. If you do it for fun, your 'job' actually turns into something to look forward to every day. Having that passion for your job will reflect in how your work looks and how your clients react. This goes both ways though and if you treat your job as a chore then that will show too. The brighter you make work feel, the more likely a customer is to book again!

  • Accepting the ups and the down's as a learning curve rather than a set-back

Learning to deal with the downs of a salon as a learning curve not a set-back is the best decision you could make. For example, if you have an unusually quiet period in Summer... why could that be? Did you do enough marketing? Did you remind clients to re-book after 6 weeks? If not, instead of dwelling on it, why not make use of the quiet time? Send out a marketing campaign from your Salon Tracker marketing suite offering 20% off treatments for the week. Or, why not focus on your social pages and put some offers on there? Business will be booming again all because you were proactive rather than dwelling on a setback.

Finally...

  • Salon Software i.e. Salon Tracker!

If you're still running your salon with endless paper cards for your tanning beds and messy hair and beauty diary's with pages ripped out and words that have been tried to be erased whilst sending your appointment reminders manually from your own phone... then it's time to move on. Our users say using our software has saved them time and gives them more hours in the day. This means they have no compromise on personal time and they can invest the extra time in the salon.

Salon Tracker boasts many features and is always improving the software based on user needs and feedback. Features include, SMS appointment reminders and marketing suite, extensive business reports and charts, re-book reminders and more.

To get your FREE demo and trial go to https://www.salontracker.co.uk/FreeTrial.aspx to have your salon turned around!

If you have any other questions or queries then please get in touch with us via, info@salontracker.co.uk or call 0113 350 8230 between the hours of 9am and 5pm

Thanks for reading!

Hidden Features within Salon Tracker!



In this blog we will be describing some of the features within Salon Tracker that you may not know about! These features can help you get the most out of Salon Tracker, whether it's saving you time, increasing your efficiency or improving your security. Read on to discover Salon Tracker features that are hidden in plain sight!








Find in Reports
Need to find something specific in your reports but don't want to spend ages scrolling through it? You can now search within reports to find what you need. Simply click on the report and click the find button and type in what you're looking for.

Online Chat
As the busy season is now in full swing, you may be finding yourself needing some help from our lovely support team, but don't have time to call. Now you can use our support chat straight from Salon Tracker, meaning you can get our help while also continuing to talk to and serve your customers! 

Staff Management
Track your staff members' shifts with our clock-in and out features so that you know exactly how long their shifts are! If you have our fingerprint reader, staff can use this to clock in and out so that you know that it's accurate. View shifts and create shift reports on Management > Staff Management. 

Auto-Lockout
Increase your security by using Salon Tracker's auto-lockout feature, meaning that Salon Tracker will automatically log out after a certain time period of not being used. You can select times between 30 seconds and 1 hour of inactivity before it turns off, depending on what suits you! 

Tube Tracking

Salon Tracker automatically tracks the life of the tubes in your sunbeds so that you know when they need changing. You can see this at a glance from the timer view! If the bar is red but near the beginning of the bar, this means that the beds have been newly retubed, and it may be wise to advise customers to reduce their minutes. If it's in green, this means that the bed is within its lifespan and you can see how far it is by how far along the bar it is. If the bar is at the end of the line and red, this means it has hit its lifespan and needs retubing. Once the bed has been retubed, you can reset the counter under the timer tab of the bed in management.

We hope you enjoyed learning about some of the features that you may not have known about within Salon Tracker.

If you are looking to book a free demonstration and 2-week trial, please contact us on 0113 350 8230 or info@salontracker.co.uk for more information.
