A hairdresser is a place where transformations take place external and partly internal. The heart of the hairdresser or beauty salon is staff, craftsmen and administrators, and the soul is the atmosphere. In many ways, the design creates the atmosphere: cozy or trendy, modern or classic, extravagant or restrained.
In order to make the design of the hairdresser bright and attractive, it is not necessary to be the owner of a premium salon. It can be an economy segment institution. It is important to respect customers and the desire to make their trip to the hairdresser as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. As they say, there would be a desire, but the area is not a hindrance!
Today it is fashionable to open hairdressing salons with any concept. For example, salons for children or exclusively for men. Not only the service should be special, but also the design of hairdressing salons (economy and business class photos are attached).
Barber for children
The design of a hairdressing salon for children should attract the attention of little restless customers. Not all kids love to get a haircut, so it’s important to distract them from the process and switch to bright decor elements. Making a salon of this kind is better in bright colors.
The most budgetary design option is to paint the walls in soft blue and pink shades and paste the images of famous cartoon characters. Now it’s easy to find a self-adhesive film for decoration - it’s inexpensive and beautiful.
The TV broadcasting channels for children will be appropriate in the children's hairdresser. Ideally, it is better to have a media player and an extensive video library so that you can include cartoons or movies at the request of small customers.
Armchairs in such a salon should be special. Most often, manufacturers of furniture for beauty salons order car seats equipped with a steering wheel and seat belt. A cheaper option would be a stand that is installed on a regular hairdressing chair or next to a sink for washing your hair. So the master and the child will be more comfortable.
Mirrors can be decorated with colored baguettes or pasted on them bright, funny images - this will decorate and refresh the design of the hairdresser. The photos posted in the article are proof of this.
Barber for men
Recently, the so-called barbershops (hairdressers for men) are gaining popularity. And this makes sense: the masters use special cosmetics with their characteristic fragrance, cut their hair twice as fast, adjust their beard and shave qualitatively, and even offer a glass of beer somewhere. Men feel much more comfortable in such establishments. The design of the hairdresser plays an important role here.
You can issue a barbershop in several styles:
- Rock bar. The main accents will be musical instruments - a pair of guitars and posters with famous rock performers will be enough. The walls can be painted in gray or brown tones, the place of the administrator can be decorated like a bar counter in the club.
- Garage. A favorite male theme is cars. Lay out the walls with tiles imitating bricks, hang pictures depicting legendary cars: from retro to supercars.
- Sports bar. Here you can focus on one sport, for example, football, or you can develop the theme of sport in general. The design elements will be cups, soccer balls, boxing gloves, images of famous athletes and clubs.
The presence of a TV, game console and a comfortable sofa for waiting is welcome!
Boudoir
And this is an institution exclusively for women. This design hairdresser will appreciate the romantic, sophisticated nature.
The main colors for decoration are pale pink, white and beige. Accents can be decorated with chocolate brown, fuchsia or anthracite gray.
Textile is important in such an interior. Let it be richly decorated windows and soft pillows on the waiting couch. On the walls you can hang images of fashion icons - Marilyn Monroe, Audrey Hepburn, Twiggy, Jacqueline Kennedy.
Mirrors can be oval, and they will look “right” in beautiful baguettes.
Minimalist Barber
The design of an economy-class hairdresser is best beaten in the style of minimalism. This does not mean the desire to save on design, but on the contrary, a well-designed interior will reflect the good taste of the owner and craftsmen.
Do not litter the shabby coffee table with the gloss of five years ago. Let it be a table from "Ikea", but stylish black or even with a glass top. And of course, only fresh magazines.
Such hairdressing salons can be decorated in three colors - two main (for example, black and beige) and one for accents (for example, bright green or orange). Even the simplest inexpensive equipment (chairs, sink) will look advantageous in one dark range. Beige walls visually expand a small space, and bright accents (mirror frames, sushuaries) give a modern look.
Eco style
This is a very fashionable hair salon design. Fashion for everything natural, natural is gaining momentum in everything, including in the design of interiors.
The most expensive option will be the use of eco-materials: solid wood, natural stone. But an imitation of these expensive design elements will look no worse.
To cover the floor, it is better to use a laminate that mimics the texture of wood. Walls should be painted in light green or resort to murals and choose the image of a rainforest, mountains or a waterfall.
Of great importance in eco-style are living plants. Some representatives of the flora will not only create a good atmosphere, but in the literal sense will affect it, saving the air from harmful chemicals that, one way or another, happen in hairdressing salons. For example, spathiphyllum is able to remove ammonia from the air, chamedorrhea formaldehyde, and chlorophytrum - chemicals contained in cleaning products.
Elements of rattan: a wicker vase at the reception or lanterns near each workplace will complement the eco-design of the hairdresser. The photo reflects the atmosphere and style of such an interior solution.
Color recommendations
- Bright, flashy colors and combinations of more than three shades in the interior of the hairdresser can alienate customers, because many people come not only to cut their hair, but also to relax.
- If the hairdresser has one common room for men and women, then do not decorate it in pink and peach colors.
- Light cold shades are better for a cosmetology and manicure cabinet - they create a feeling of cleanliness and sterility.
- Do not paint the walls near the working areas of hairdressers in bright green and blue tones, this can visually distort the hair color of blondes.
Lighting Recommendations
Lighting can become a hairdresser, either friend or foe. The choice of light must be approached very responsibly.
Lighting should be general and local, above each working area of the cabin. Lamps are better to choose fluorescent.
Do not intentionally use cold or warm light. The first will give the hair and skin of customers a blue and green tint. The second, on the contrary, is excessive yellowness.
