The colors of your retail area shouldn't always be bright and full of different colors. Sometimes, as in this example, an elegant design fits the occasion and gets the deserved attention as any other brightly colored retail area.

Sometimes less is more. And obviously in cases like this less is actually more. You have everything you need in this small space and you can use your other free space for something else, which is good when your customer is looking around your salon.

This retail area utilizes lighting very beautifully. You should always use lights if it fits the design because you can focus more attention on the items you are selling.

Top 5 Essential Vintage Items Every Salon Should Have

Even if your salon's not with a vintage style and design you still need to have at a few vintage items. Vintage does not mean old and rusty or inefficient. There are new, high-tech equipment, comfy chairs and good blow-driers that are made today but with an old-school design, hence - vintage style. Even if you have a modern interior design you should still "stick to your roots". Vintage items are proven to make the customers feel better and more familiar with the salon. The top five vintage items I recommend for every kind of salon are:

1. Antique hair dryer

Choosing the right hair dryer comes down to looks. Every dryer has essentially the same power and function, the only difference each of them have is their design and look. Not only do Antique hair dryers look good - they feel good holding them in your hand too.

2. Old-school chair

Antique chairs are comfy to sit on for hours. Whether they are for your waiting room or for the receptionist - they can fit right in your salon. Some salon design companies make new chairs with all the features modern ones have - but with retro, old-school, vintage design.
