Frequently Asked Questions
Questions about hair salons marketing? We have got honest answers.
How do clients decide which hair salon to book?
They look at photos of finished work, read recent reviews that name a stylist and check whether a time fits their week. For big changes they also want a consultation. Price matters, but fear of a bad result usually matters more.
What is a good lead for a hair salon?
A person near the salon who names a service, has a time in mind and can book or request a consultation. A new client wanting balayage or extensions is worth more than a one-off discount seeker. A form with no service named is a weak lead.
How do seasons change hair salon marketing?
Wedding and party seasons bring trials and updos, summer brings lightening and the new school term brings children's cuts. Midweek is often quiet all year. We plan campaigns and posts ahead of each swing.
What should we have ready before starting?
Photos of recent finished hair, your service menu and starting prices, stylist details and your booking tool login. Tell us which services you want more of and which days are quiet. We can begin without everything.
Can marketing help if we are busy some weeks?
Yes. We aim at quiet days, new stylists and higher-value services, and we can slow spend when stylists are full. The goal is balanced chairs, not endless demand.
How do you handle before and after photos?
They need the client's agreement, honest framing and plain captions. We never invent or alter results. The salon decides what is shared, and we advise on light and angle so the work looks like it does in the chair.
What does HeyLead do and not do?
We are a marketing team that builds search, ads, social campaigns and websites for salons. We do not cut hair, set your prices or decide your treatments. We also do not guarantee rankings, bookings or revenue.
