Sector information: hairdressing salons

Hair salons offer a wide range of treatments from hair styling, coloring, grooming, and beauty treatments. The number of hair salon acquisitions over the years is striking. While in 2012 there were about 45 hair salons being sold, ten years later the tally already stood at 105 (by 2021).

There are three major trends for hair salon owners. First, a hair salon on four wheels, which seems to be an emerging trend. By driving a barber truck or barber bus to events, such as fashion shows or festivals, visitors can also impulsively visit the specialist.

Second, a home hair salon, which increases the home value but keeps operating costs low. This can be a smart investment and is already happening quite regularly, especially in the outlying villages. Cutting haircutting clients near your home leaves plenty of time for family life, informal care and other duties.

Third, consumers are out for convenience and luxury, so a one-stop-shop concept is like a warm bath. By also having makeup done immediately at the hair salon, having a beauty treatment, pedicure or manicure, there is time savings for the customer.
