In order for a hairdresser or small beauty salon to be competitive, you must strive from the very beginning to prove to your customers and yourself that your establishment really meets the modern level of service.

Instruction manual
1
Set the lower bar for the size of the room that you need to equip a hairdresser. If the area needs to be rented, then the desire to save on each square meter is quite natural, however, for a profitable hairdresser, at least the middle class needs a spacious room in which the client and technical areas are clearly distinguished. Therefore, do not try to fit your institution on twenty square meters, look for a room for it at least two to two and a half times more.
2
Assess the condition of the potential premises for your future hairdresser. An uninterrupted water supply and the availability of hot water all year round is extremely important for a good institution, so make inquiries in advance by talking with local residents or tenants of neighboring areas. Most often, hairdressers are located on the first floors of residential buildings, and the situation with public utilities in them may vary, especially if you are looking for a more or less economical option.
3
Give preference to the room in which there is an emergency exit - the presence of a service entrance for staff is highly desirable. In any hairdressing salon there is a need to throw out garbage and various waste throughout the day, this must be done quietly and away from visitors waiting for their turn. The second entrance can then be made by yourself, but it will require additional costs, for some buildings this possibility is excluded in principle, which you also need to know in advance.
4
Learn all the legal subtleties of the procedure for transferring space to non-residential fund from residential. If you are going to purchase a room on the ground floor of a residential building, then you will have to transfer it to a non-residential fund, and a number of problems may arise with this. Here you need full loyalty of the residents, and the permission of several institutions - about all the obstacles that may arise in your way, you need to find out before the conclusion of the transaction.
