50 beauty salon name ideas - Belasis - Beauty salon and clinic system

Choosing hair salon names seems like a simple task, doesn't it? But, when evaluating the possibilities, you realize that it is not such a quick task after all.

It takes days of thinking to create a concept that conveys everything you want to pass on to the client. And the worst part of it is that the term needs to be short (and catchy) preferably – after all, it must be remembered by everyone.

However, there are some techniques to achieve this goal and choose the best name for your beauty salon. If you have many doubts, follow this content with 10 tips + 50 great suggestions!

Beauty salon names: what is required?

First of all, to define the name you need to think about the audience you are going to or want to reach. This really is not that simple, because the function of the name is to make your establishment popular. In other words, to be on "everyone's lips".

Therefore, the first thing to think about is "don't overcomplicate it." It is essential that your name be short, direct and simple to pronounce. Customers must remember it easily, especially to recommend it to other people. Have you ever thought if they forget, and then the competitor's name comes to mind? A point against you!

Furthermore, it should express the characteristics of your business, regarding your field of activity and even with the services. For this reason, names related to beauty, hair and body care are well-rated. On the other hand, different from the names of rival salons and large chains.

Ah, and if the name is in English, French or another language, pay attention to the meaning. Avoid overdoing it or choosing terms that have nothing to do with the segment.

10 tips for choosing names for your beauty salon

1. Define the parameters of your beauty salon

According to experts, for each stage of the business there is a question to be asked (or several). For this baptism stage of your business, you should consider the following questions:

Where is your salon located? (Is it downtown, in a neighborhood?)
Is your clientele made up of men, women, children, or all of them?
What does your salon service? (Hair, Nail salon, Aesthetics, Cuts, Color?)
What kind of public do you intend to serve? (A, B or C?)

These are the questions that will help you define your niche. Based on them, choosing a name will be much easier. By defining this, you will be able to better understand your audience's mindset and know how to connect better with their ideas.

2. Write down all suggestions

This is one of the main tips for choosing names for beauty salons: write down, write down everything! No matter how absurd the idea may seem, be sure to write it down. In any case, the idea follows a three-stage structure:

In the mind: This is the stage where we must be most careful. As soon as the idea arises, it can disappear – just think of something else. And who knows when you will think of it again.
Written: If you have no way to write it down on paper, use your cell phone. The notes app serves exactly this purpose!
Plan and realize: It may seem superficial, but it is not. Many ideas seem just like something fleeting, but after you start writing them down, they become goals.

3. Analyze your first and last name

Are you very popular in the area where you live? How do people know you? By your first name? Your last name? Maybe even a nickname!

Believe me, if the idea is to make it catchy, and if your salon is nearby or even in your home, this can be an excellent option. Often we complicate what should be simple.

Use your popularity to your advantage. Remember the following scene: two neighbors meet on the street and one says to the other:

"- Jane, what beautiful hair!

- Did you like it? It was at Mary's salon!"

It may seem silly, but marketing has always worked this way. So think seriously about it.

4. Use adjectives for creation

Have you thought about how you want your clients to feel when leaving the salon? This could be your way out when choosing the name.

How many salons with the name Belíssima, Diva or other adjectives have you already met? There are several out there.

Oh, remember that they must match your client profile (and yours too).

5. Play with combinations

A classic example to give you, is a 90s magazine aimed at the adolescent female audience called Toda Teen. Simple and catchy, right?

This is the key to creation. Sometimes we get so overwhelmed that we end up complicating everything. Remember what we said at the beginning, "Don't complicate!".

So if before we used adjectives in the combinations, we can also use adverbs or adverbial phrases, more specifically those of intensity.

To make it easier, let's leave some here as a gift: muito (very), toda (totally/all), mais (more) and demais (too much/awesome) are the most recommended.

6. Request ideas

Talk to your friends and family. In moments of lack of creativity, talking to other people can expand horizons and thus new ideas can arise.

But don't forget to write it down, please!

7. Speak out loud

This tip is fundamental. Who has never come across that business name that makes an excellent pun?

Actually, nobody wants their company name to be used for a pun or a joke among friends, right?

To avoid this, first say it out loud to yourself. But repeat it several times. Speak fast and slow to analyze how it sounds. Is that what you want them to do with your beauty salon's name? Is that how you want it to sound to your clients?

Perfect, then it's time to speak it to your friends. If after repeating it several times to your friends, none of them have made a little joke, then you've probably found the right name!

8. Remember simple writing

Simplicity once again. If you are looking for a catchy name, remember that writing should be as simple as speaking. In times of tags and "mentions", it is important that the name is written practically the way it is read.

In any case, it is recommended to have terms already common to the Portuguese language. There is no point in putting a term that people will get confused about and spell wrong. Remember the tip about names in English and other languages? If you are going to bet on these suggestions, know the meaning and opt for something simple, easy to speak and write.

9. Remember iconic beauty names

Often we don't stop to think, but it can be quite catchy to think of famous beauty icons.

Aphrodite, the Greek goddess of love and beauty, for example, is also called Venus in Roman mythology. But we don't stop there, because they don't have to be names. Let's return to adjectives that are not even Portuguese: glamour, for example. After all, who doesn't want to leave the salon looking glamorous?

10. Delimit your salon's activity

It can be complicated, but always try to delimit your salon's activity. There's no point in just putting "Belíssima" for a nail salon. You should use "Belíssima Esmalteria", "Estética Glamour" and so on.

According to experts, this avoids confusion. Likewise, when arriving at your establishment, clients will know exactly what to look for.

Now that you already know how to choose your beauty salon's name, how about also choosing a management system to start off on the right foot?
