Getting Started

When it comes to salon web design, most people have no idea where to start. Should they hire a website developer? Or use the services of website development tools such as Wix? There are pros and cons of each method – one allows you to practice your creativity, yet requires your time, while the other is often quite expensive but saves you time.

Regardless of your method of choice, there often comes a time where you begin to ask yourself - what template should I choose?

A good place to start with your salon web design template is to consider the aesthetics, colours and branding of your beauty salon, as well as your target audience. For example – if your salon is girly and pink then a minimalist dark template will most likely not fit you well.

Content

As the name entails, the keyword in beauty salons is … beauty. Which is why it is very important to incorporate it into your salon website design – whether it is interactive images, animation, gifs, banners or professional, gorgeous images, every website design detail must demonstrate ‘beauty’. Think of your website as your virtual salon door – if it doesn’t reflect your style, class and the quality of your services and your customers then people won’t come in.
