Japan is aging.
As customers become more mature, it has been a long time since "adult responsiveness" has been required nationwide, but it is not only "customers" who are becoming more mature.
On the other hand, it is said that the average age of hairdressers is around 27 years old.
Once they reach their 40s, they are no longer able to increase sales as they used to, and some people retire or put down their scissors.
However, because both customers and hairdressers are aging, there is a salon that advocates that "hairdressers and customers become the main players after they become "seniors".
Egao Beauty Salon is a hair salon of "EGAO", which started with a photo studio and has expanded its business specializing in senior beauty.
This salon has gained overwhelming support for marketing to seniors, accurately capturing the needs of people who spent their youth in the 80s and 90s, different from the "grandmothers" of the past.
In this book, Egao Beauty Salon reveals all of its techniques, including cutting, hair coloring, and perms, which have been reconstructed to specialize in "today's seniors (over 60 years old)".
This book summarizes all of the hair design techniques, such as "creating shapes, colors, and textures" that are unique to seniors, which are different from the basics for debuting as a stylist.
Now is the time to throw away the "grandmother-oriented" approach that just hides gray hair and has a shape that covers thin hair and volume!
Seniors are the ones who need "hair design"!
By reskilling yourself with techniques for seniors, the beauty life of those in their 40s and above will begin to shine even more.
・What you can do with this book
■ Increase your customer base! = The era in which people in their 70s and 80s are also looking for salons on review sites. There are plenty of potential customers!
■ Stylish and fun! = If you stop treating them like "old people" or "grandmas," you can build a relationship of repeat business with hair design
■ Become a lifelong hair designer = Start your career in your 40s with your customers. You can work for a long time!
