Popular TV shows spark salon trends

It’s important for any salon manager to keep an eye out for upcoming trends so that they know what their clients are likely to request when making their appointment. The last thing any salon owner needs is to be put on the spot when a client asks for something they have never heard of, which is why they should be finding the time to research the latest media crazes and fashion trends, and encouraging their staff to do so also.

Since Game of Thrones returned to Sky Atlantic in April this year, online retailer Amazon has noticed a rise of 533 per cent in platinum hair dye, as many women try to copy the Mother of Dragons, Daenerys’, long locks. Eyebrow grooming kits have also risen by 27 per cent week on week, thought to be thanks to Dany’s thick brows. Your clients are likely to be easily influenced by trends, so it is worth knowing what is hot and what’s not so that you can accommodate them and make popular suggestions in order to push sales.
