Should I buy hair extensions in bulk?
As hair extensions’ popularity increases and our world gets faster and faster paced, setting yourself apart as a hair extension specialist is the key to taking your salon and income to the next level. If you’re looking to make the leap to luxury, having a supply of hair extensions on hand instantly affirms your space as the go-to hair extension hub.
How will buying extensions in bulk boost my hair extension sales?
Think about it… The hair products you have on hand wouldn’t sell half as well without the product on display, and hair extensions are no different. Displaying hair extensions places them in the forefront of your clients’ minds, without you needing to bring them up or risk coming across as a hard sale.
As someone who’s worn hair extensions before, you know they sell themselves, but it’s infinitely harder for them to do that when they’re not present!
For clients ready to make the hair extension plunge, a stock of hair extensions on hand enhances the consultation experience, with a chance to feel just how soft their new extensions will be, the opportunity to color match in real time, and the possibility to skip waiting for a shipment and install their hair extensions in real time.
Just think about it - with a proper hair extension display setup, your open afternoon with only one color appointment could turn into an extension transformation worth thousands!
How will having a stock of hair extensions make me a better stylist?
As someone intent on developing your hair extension craft, a variety of hair extension options on hand also offers much greater depth of blend opportunities, with the ability to pull wefts from separate packs for the ultimate dimension, perfect for matching the lived in, blendy beauties gracing your chair.
In addition to offering your clients a greater range of blend options, a supply of hair extensions allows you to mix and match methods as well. As we all know, different distributions of hair often require more than one method for a safe, healthy hair extension application, especially on finer heads of hair. The ability to offer a few pieces of keratin tip extensions to a weft install boosts the overall blend of the transformation, while preserving the integrity of the client’s hair, leaving you with a stunning, happier client, more likely to return (and refer her friends).
How would buying hair extensions in bulk make me more money?
Speaking purely from a business perspective, keeping hair extensions on hand provides the opportunity for a much higher profit margin per service. The combination of increased sales and more profit per sale is where you gain the opportunity to skyrocket your salon’s earnings.
As we discussed below, having hair extensions on hand allows you to pull pieces from multiple packs to craft an install, combining colors and methods, enabling you to use less hair overall rather than needing to order more of each piece for each install!
