The modern beauty salon

The Modern Beauty Salon

Todays Beauty Salon is a far cry from the old row of hairdryers and a tray of curlers. The modern Beauty Salon offers a luxurious treat for today’s busy woman or indeed, man.

For just an hour or so of your busy working week it’s the height of luxury to be able to chill out while you are being pampered. That hour is all about you! No boss shouting for your time, no kids wanting feeding. Just your stylist wanting to know what you want, and how you want to look. It’s a time for idle chit chat and relaxation.

It all starts with making your first appointment. When you call in to your salon how does the receptionist make you feel? Is there a frantic searching through pages of a paper diary and the receptionist looking down or is it a friendly smile and the click of a button? Today’s salon software helps the receptionist find the next available appointment easily and quickly and spend more time interacting with the client. So your first contact and first impression are ‘that was quick and easy and the receptionist was so nice and friendly, I’m looking forward to my appointment’.

A day or two before your appointment you get an e-mail or SMS reminding you of your appointment, now that’s a nice touch, you feel special. Little do your clients know that this is salon software confirming your appointment to make sure you don’t forget and leave the salon with an idle stylist!

So, the day of your appointment arrives and you turn up at the salon. Booking in is easy with the salon software system. There may be a few minutes for you to chat with the receptionist and she might ask how you found out about the salon or how often you like to visit a salon? All this information can be captured on the salon software and can be used to enhance your experience. Of course it can also help the salon with marketing and retaining clients.

You relax and enjoy having your hair styled, you discuss your preferences with your stylist, and she may want to know what colour you like for your hair or suggest what products might benefit you. Again, all this can be recorded on the salon software for future sales.

Now you’re looking good and feeling great! You are taken back to reception to pay and you might pick up some of the products your stylist suggested. All this will be recorded on your receipt and in the salon software. The receptionist will let you know there is a free appointment for your stylist in 5 weeks (you told her how often you like to come when you arrived) and book it for you.

On your next visit you may be offered the shampoo you have been using since your last visit, the salon will know you bought it last time because it is all in the salon software. You feel like they know you and care about you so you’ll keep going back because you feel wanted.

If you own a Beauty Salon and want to enhance your business then salon software is for you. It is a user friendly way of gathering information that is valid to your business and it frees up your staff to make your clients visit a special one.

Beauty farm alhambra for women only

Beauty Farm Alhambra, For Women Only

The month of March at the Beauty Farm Alhambra is dedicated to the women who want to celebrate the 8th of March in a special way: giving themselves a break to relax and spend some time with their friends.
Hammam, precious beauty treatments and massages, this is only the beginning: there is the shopping with the One Day Card, which offers an advantageous 10% discount on all the brands of the Outlet Fidenza Village; there is the opportunity to go for a walk by foot or bike among the green hills of Tabiano or visit the magnificent castles and the ancient parishes of the surroundings.
The wellness center proposes two packages valid from the 5th to the 14th of March: Femininity and Mimosa, three days and two nights of wellness and cuddles to forget stress and tiredness.
Both include the access to the hammam programme “Istanbul Baths”. It is an eastern tradition which gave origin to a western ritual of wellness which purifies the skin and relax the mind.
Music, perfumes and a cup of green tea welcome the guests in the Tepidarium. Gradually the body gets used to the temperature (35-40°) and, chitchatting and laughing , it is time for the Calidarium, where the soft perfumes gently wrap the body and the toxins and fluids excess can be eliminated. In the end, the Frigidarium is the place dedicated to a revitalizing spa tub session, which gives new energy and vitality.
Herbal teas, dried fruits and pastries are the perfect closure to enjoy lying on comfortable chaise longues, waiting for a new treatment to experience, like the sun shower, to prepare perfectly the skin for the summer, or the “Submerged Sounds Bath”.
In the soft candle light it is a pleasure to indulge in the embrace of the warm water and the sounds of nature: fatigue and tiredness will magically disappear.
And for those who choose the “Femininity” wellness package there are two more beauty treatments: an aromatic massage and the revitalizing experience of the Polynesian shower with warm and cold water jets, which stimulate the blood circulation and give a new tide of energy.
For both the wellness packages, the accomodation is full board at the Grand Hotel Terme Astro, the four star resort that holds the beauty farm.
Finally, for the busiest ones there are two daily packages to choose: “Gossip: relaxing chats” and “Tittle Tattle: wellness chitchat”.

Shop online for the biggest selection

Shop Online for the Biggest Selection

You can shop the biggest malls in the world and their merchandise will pale compared to the selection available on the World Wide Web. It is selection, price and convenience that are catapulting shoppers online instead of standing in line at their favorite store.

The number of online shoppers is growing quickly. By 2008, more than 875 million consumers had shopped online – a 40 percent increase in just two years. These online shoppers live all over the world. South Korea has the largest number of online shoppers, followed by the United Kingdom, Germany, Japan and the United States. The most popular items they are buying are books, followed by clothing, videos/DVDs/games, airline tickets and electronic equipment.

So what is bringing all these people to the Internet? Convenience for starters. It is very convenient to shop 24 hours a day from the comfort of your computer. No reason to bundle up and go out in the cold – or even get out of your pajamas for online trips. You won’t have to circle the parking lot, waiting for a shopper to leave so you can snag a prime parking spot. But there are other reasons, too. For example, it is fairly easy to compare products and prices online. The offering of third-party shopping Web sites force merchants to be competitive, helping to ensure good prices and bargains for you, the shopper. There are also some simple reasons for shopping online. There’s no schlepping big packages home from the store. Sites ship it to your home – sometimes at no cost to the consumer.

Of course online shopping has some drawbacks. You cannot touch the merchandise you’re thinking of buying. And there’s no salesperson to answer your questions – although those aren’t always available in brick and mortar stores either. But Web sites have improved their customer service features in recent years. Some sites, for example, offer online videos to demonstrate product features. Others allow you to immediately chat with a store representative so you can get your questions answered. You might click on the wrong button and order the wrong product, but who hasn’t gotten home from a store only to find they picked up the wrong size? Some say there is a slightly higher chance your credit card may fall prey to fraud, but the introduction of the CVV2 code on the back of credit cards has done a lot to solve this problem.

When shopping online, be sure you read over the delivery terms carefully. Many online retailers require 30 days to deliver the product. If that’s the case – and the gift-giving occasion is later in the week – you need to pay for overnight shipping or head to the mall.

There are tricks to successful online shopping that will allow you to join the millions of other successful Internet shoppers.

First, be sure you do your homework on the product you’re buying. There are plenty of reliable product reviews online. Simply type “the product name + reviews” into your preferred search engine. You can easily find out if the kitchen gadget you want is more of a novelty than a real help. The reviews will tell you if that vacuum cleaner you want has been the source of numerous recalls. This is where online shoppers have a big advantage over traditional shoppers who may buy the first blender they see. The online shopper can actually compare all brands of blenders to find the best model and then order it from the retailer with the best terms.

When ordering for the first time from a lesser-known retailer, check out the details. Look for product reviews to ensure they have made deliveries. And make sure the Web site offers a postal address and an e-mail address, both of which are required by law. Also, look for the padlock symbol on the order page or “https” in the Web address (as opposed to http), which helps ensure a secure Web site.

Review the terms and conditions so you’re confident of how you will be billed and how the product will be delivered. If you won’t be at home, ask that it be delivered to your work address.

Be sure you keep a copy of all your online transactions, including the online receipt, order confirmation and transaction number. Start a folder in your e-mail file for online orders. Place confirmations and correspondence from the retailer there.

Understand the retailer’s return policy and procedures. You may have to return the goods and it would be nice if the retailer could make that easy for you with shipping labels, packing materials or free shipping.

Shopping online may not be the way your mother shopped, but she probably would have given it a try too if she knew how easy today’s merchants are making the whole online experience.
