The role of salons in people’s lives is changing fundamentally as the demand for wellness and luxury, and a wider range of services accelerates. Once regarded as a place to get a haircut or colour, the rise of salons positioning themselves as a destination for relaxation and well-being has been shaped by the introduction of treatments such as Head Spas, scalp care and beauty, including hand and nail care, facials, massage and skincare.
Salons driving this evolution have gone beyond the functional to create highly desirable sanctuaries that focus not only on their interior environment and client experiences, they’ve also embraced innovations in equipment, technology and treatments to expand their offering and maximise their commercial potential.
The changing complexion of salon businesses represents a culture shift which is reshaping the industry and creating a new and exciting business model for salons. With equipment innovation key to this transformation, we’ve highlighted four key products from Takara Belmont that are redefining experiences, differentiating salons and keeping clients coming back time and again.
Yume Espoir ESL – Upgrade experiences, expand service menus and enhance your interior aesthetic
As a compact model in Takara Belmont’s world-renowned Yume Series, Yume Espoir ESL brings high-end luxury and superior comfort to all salons regardless of size.
With foot controlled motorised functionality, a folding leg-rest and a generously cushioned full lie-flat backwash bed, clients can be easily manoeuvred into the perfect position for shampoo services and beauty treatments. With thermostatic control and an ergonomic shower-head, its wide ceramic basin features a double gel-filled neck cushion and two gel-filled head pillows that alleviate neck and back strain, even during longer treatments. This combination makes Yume Espoir perfect for adding Head Spa treatments and other beauty and spa-style services.
Espoir Stool – Enhance ergonomic control
As an advancement in ergonomic design, Espoir Stool is the perfect accompaniment to Yume Espoir, as it gives backwash technicians the ultimate in comfort and control, even during much longer treatments. Its padded, hydraulic-sprung seat has an 8 ̊ forward and backward tilt movement that’s height adjustable and weighted for stability, with four non-slip rubber feet ensuring it stays securely in place.
Spa Mist II – Meet the rise in demand for hair and scalp health
As a compact, highly functional mobile processor, Spa Mist II’s scalp care programs actively enhance the condition, health and well-being of the hair and scalp, while giving salons the scope to enhance colour services and introduce hand and nail conditioning treatments.
Ultrasonic technology generates a microscopic mist at just 40 ̊-50 ̊ to deep clean the scalp by removing debris and build up, while opening hair cuticles to infuse conditioning treatments and colour inside the hair without dilution. Scientifically proven results include a healthier scalp with reduced dryness, itchiness and flakiness, along with shinier and more manageable hair and more vibrant, durable colour.
Head Bath – Enhance every client encounter and increase the value of Head Spa treatments
Take advantage of the rising popularity of Head Spas with Takara Belmont’s Head Bath accessory. This ingenious device attaches to the Yume basin** to create the ultimate Head Spa with warm flowing water that promotes relaxation and enhances well-being. Head Bath is essential for introducing the Original Japanese Head Spa and is proven to actively improve hair and scalp health.
