Salon Product and Stock Management
Effective product management is one of the biggest opportunities for improving salon profitability. Back bar products (shampoo, conditioner, colour, developer) are a significant ongoing cost, and waste through over-use, expiry or theft can erode margins quickly. Tracking usage per service helps you price accurately and identify waste.
Retail product sales are a valuable additional revenue stream, often carrying 40-50% profit margins compared to 10-20% on services. UK salons that actively recommend and sell take-home products can increase overall revenue by 15-25%. Setting the right markup while remaining competitive requires careful calculation.
Stock management follows the same principles as any retail operation: maintain enough stock to meet demand without tying up excessive capital. The reorder point — the stock level at which you should place a new order — depends on your daily usage rate and your supplier's delivery lead time. Our calculators help you set optimal levels and avoid both stockouts and overstocking.
