Ask any owner or manager of a hair salon about colour waste, and most will say it\u2019s a nightmare \u2014 rightly so. Hair colour services bring in a wide range of unexpected situations. When errors happen, they quickly become costly. Something “as small as” unbalanced colour scales can have a colourist or assistant mix up far too much of a formula, leading to massive waste, increased costs, and lost revenue. According to research<\/a>, the average salon throws away 25-40% of its colour inventory and loses 10-15% of its colour service revenue.<\/p>\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n

The industry-wide issue comes about in conversations with an alarming frequency, and with demand for colour treatments being at an all-time high post-lockdown, product costs will increase dramatically and possibly threaten profit margins. The question is: how can salons recoup these costs?<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Without effective systems, salon owners are left to manage their colour business with guesswork, estimates and manufacturer benchmarks. You can hear more about the hair industry\u2019s two fundamental colour management challenges on a Phorest FM episode featuring Joshua Howard, CEO of Vish, the industry\u2019s leading colour management software<\/a> available for use worldwide.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
