- Capelli’s Seasonal Photo Shoot
Award-winning salon Capelli Hair and Beauty in Blouberg, puts together seasonal style collections at the start of each new season in order to inspire their clients and their team. This stunning collection is their recent autumn shoot. Stylist: Amanda Stylist: Gerdia Stylist: Charlotte Stylist: Kenneth Stylist: Terry Stylist: Charlotte The salon is owned by hairdresser Terry Dimmock, whose partner Dirk looks after the financial side of the business so it is a true family concern. A long established business that has been in its current location for 15 years, Capelli strives to offer the best possible service, going the extra mile to ensure every client is happy and spoiled. Capelli was a multiple award winner at the Joico Awards, and is also a leader in Kevin Murphy retail sales. Although lockdown was a challenge, Terry made sure that all his 17 staff were cared for during and after this difficult time. “If your staff are not happy, the salon will not be a happy place, so it’s essential to look after them,” Terry emphasises. “The most important thing for us is service,” Dirk agrees. “Clients come first, but also our staff. When I walk into the salon, I always feel the energy in the shop is incredible, and we are extremely blessed with the numbers of clients – both loyal long term clients and new clients – who walk through our doors.” Follow Capelli on Facebook HERE

- Straight Talk with Sweet Professional
For many clients, their greatest relationship is with their hair. Taking the plunge to straighten their curls or smooth their waves can be deeply emotional. For peace of mind – yours and theirs – give your clients the Sweet Professional option. The Sweet Professional straightening system is completely formaldehyde-free and the Brazilian straightening treatment – The First Shampoo Generation 3.0 – is made up entirely of natural and organic ingredients. It is applied simply and easily, just like a shampoo. Based on the desired end result, condition and length of the hair, your clients can have smooth, frizz-free hair in 60 – 90 minutes. And it lasts for up to 3 months! Because The First Shampoo Generation 3.0 is formaldehyde-free, other chemical processes such as bleaching or colouring can be done on the same day as the straightening. That’s excellent news for your client and excellent news for your turnover! Seeing is believing: The Sweet Professional treatments are used in over 40 000 salons in Brazil and in more than 70 countries worldwide. Take a look at these sleek and elegant transformations from salons across South Africa. The First Maintenance Range is an at-home care regimen that ensures your client’s straightened hair is well looked after even after they leave your chair. Products contain amino acids and can be used daily to prolong the straightened effect. Sweet Professional treatments include: Sweet Toning Shampoo and Sweet Platinum Conditioner: Maintains platinum hair colour for longer after bleaching. Ideal for use in combination with the Botox for Blonde Hair straightening technique. S.O.S. 1 Impact Shock & S.O.S. 2 Regeneration: Repairs and regenerates super-damaged hair. Ideal for use in combination with The First Shampoo 3.0 straightening treatment. 3-Step Lovely Smoothing System: Heightens the straightening result on coarse hair.

- Business Insights #11: What is Business Profiling?
In virtually everything in life there is an unwritten law that says, for every action there is a reaction. This certainly applies in business where success is directly related to the types and frequency of actions that you take e.g. promotions, attending training seminars. Over a period of time you will understand which are the things that have the most positive impact on your business. This has given rise to the 80/20 principle. For example, 20% of your clients generate 80% of the turnover. Or which 20% of your retail products (top sellers) generate 80% of your sales or which 20% of in-salon products can not afford to be out of stock. I recently attended an excellent business seminar at Twincare and one of the key principles was measurability - having a means to measure the results of every dynamic that makes up your business. For example promotions, training, incentives, and even growth of each of your staff members. Sounds like the perfect formula for success! This is why it is essential to profile your business on an on-going basis to be able to measure growth. The first challenge is recognising the signs of growth and the most obvious way is to understand the profile of your business. Your business profile is knowing how much each of your ‘offerings’ and ‘resources’ contributes to total turnover. When I say offerings I refer to the conventional range of services including cutting and styling, colour, in-salon treatments, perms & relaxers, hair extensions and retail. And your resources are your staff, stock etc. This is the profile of a start-up business where most of your turnover comes from cutting hair with very little chemical work being done. But as your business grows the profile starts to show increases in chemical services, in-salon treatments and of course retail sales. You will also notice an increase in new clients plus the average spend of your clients grows in line with the recommendation of additional services and of course retail. Finally you end up with a strong, secure business where an ever growing number of clients buy into colour, treatments and retail. This profile shows a sustainable, money-in-the bank business. You can also 'Profile' each of your stylists by using My Salon Software's KPI reports. This report gives a much more detailed 'profile' including new clients and client retention as well as average docket value. And the final thing on setting and achieving goals - whether you think you can or think you can’t, you’re probably right!
