THIS MONTH WE ASKED YOU…

Would you consider franchising your salon or spa?

54% YES

46% NO

Editor’s comment: how should we regulate professional treatments?

Jolene Young, beauty therapy learning assistant at Moray College UHI, commented: “The whole beauty industry is in dire need of regulation. Habia, as the awarding body, really needs to get a handle on this. It would lead to therapists then being able to get on the JCCP register for injectables if that’s the route they wish to go.”

Business challenges: stress and anxiety

Hot topic

@pro_beauty01: 23% of beauty salon professionals admit that they feel stressed out at work weekly Do you agree?

Elizabeth Victoria, owner of Beauty Birmingham, commented: “That means 77% are happy. I think it can be down to managers, sales targets and being overworked. I think it’s crazy that therapists can work eight hours doing massage etc and only have 30 minutes’ break. We are professionals not slaves “

Lindsay Thompson, owner of Tranquillity Beauty Studio, commented: “I don’t feel stressed and I make sure my staff aren’t either. Happy staff make for a happy work environment and the clients pick up on that too.”
