Hair Salon Branding
Hair Salon Branding That Turns Stylists into Influencers.
Stop being just another salon on the high street. We build chic, aspirational brands that create desire, attract top talent, and empower you to build a reputation that keeps your appointment book full with high-paying clients.
Award-winning Hair Salon Branding
As your dedicated branding partners, we craft bold, unforgettable identities that don't just look good—they drive real business growth.
We Craft Brands That Captivate & Convert
Your Skills Are Salon-Grade. Your Prices Are Bargain-Basement.
You've perfected your craft and create transformations that make clients feel like new people.
But when potential clients see your Instagram next to the chain salon, they can't tell the difference. Your £180 colour correction gets rejected whilst they book a £40 "highlight" at the chain salon.
What's Destroying Your Profit Margins:
- Amateur branding that lumps you in with budget chains
- Clients shop on price because they can't see your expertise value
- Attracting clients who haggle over every service and expect discount results
What Transforms Your Business:
- Instant luxury recognition that communicates premium experience, not budget salon
- Price confidence where your rates feel reasonable because your brand looks exclusive
- Quality client magnet that attracts customers who value artistry over convenience
The truth: Your talent deserves clients who see appointments as investments in themselves, not expenses to minimise.

FAQs about Hair Salon Branding
What exactly do you include in a hair salon branding package?
Great question! Our salon branding packages typically include your logo design, colour palette, typography choices, and brand guidelines. We also create business cards, price lists, appointment cards, and social media templates. Depending on your needs, we can extend this to shop front signage, uniform designs, and even your website branding. Think of it as everything you need to create a cohesive, professional look that'll make your salon stand out on the high street.
How long does the branding process usually take?
Most of our salon branding projects take between 4-6 weeks from start to finish. This gives us time to really understand your vision, create initial concepts, gather your feedback, and refine everything until it's absolutely spot on. We know you're eager to get your new look out there, but good branding is like a brilliant cut and colour - it's worth taking the time to get it right!
Do you work with all types of hair salons?
Absolutely! We've worked with everything from traditional high street salons to trendy urban barbershops, luxury spa-salons, mobile hairdressers, and specialist services like Afro-Caribbean hair care or vintage styling. Each salon has its own personality and clientele, and we love the challenge of capturing that unique vibe in the branding. Whether you're going for classic elegance or edgy contemporary, we'll nail the look that's right for you.
Why can't I just design my own logo using online tools?
You absolutely could have a go, and fair play if you do! But here's the thing - professional branding goes way beyond just a logo. It's about creating a complete visual identity that tells your story, attracts your ideal clients, and works consistently across everything from your Instagram posts to your shop window. Plus, we understand the hair and beauty industry inside out, so we know what works and what doesn't. Think of us as the colourists for your brand - we'll get the blend just right.
How much should I budget for professional salon branding?
Investment in branding typically ranges from £800 to £3,500 depending on what you need. A basic package might cover your logo and essential stationery, while a comprehensive rebrand could include everything from interior design consultation to a full marketing suite. We always provide detailed quotes upfront, so there are no nasty surprises. Remember, good branding pays for itself - the right look can easily help you charge 10-20% more for your services!
What if I'm not happy with the initial designs?
No worries at all - that's exactly why we build revision rounds into every project! We usually start with 3-4 initial concepts, then refine your favourite based on your feedback. Most clients love what we present, but if something's not quite hitting the mark, we'll keep tweaking until you're absolutely chuffed with the result. Your satisfaction is everything to us - after all, you're the one who has to live with this branding every day!
Will my new branding actually help me attract more clients?
In our experience, absolutely yes! Professional branding does several brilliant things: it makes you look more established and trustworthy, helps you attract clients who appreciate quality (and are willing to pay for it), and makes you much more memorable. We've had salon clients tell us their bookings increased by 30-40% after a rebrand, and they were able to raise their prices too. Good branding basically helps you compete with the big chains while maintaining your unique, personal touch.
Do you help with social media and online presence too?
We certainly do! Most of our branding packages include social media templates for Instagram, Facebook, and TikTok, plus guidance on how to use your new brand online. We can create story templates, post designs, and even help with your Google My Business profile. If you need a full website, we can either design that for you or provide all the branding assets to your web designer. The key is making sure your online presence matches your gorgeous new in-salon branding perfectly.
I'm opening a new salon - when should I sort out my branding?
Ideally, you want to get your branding sorted before you open your doors - or at least before you start properly marketing. This way, everything launches looking cohesive and professional from day one. We'd recommend starting the branding process about 8-10 weeks before your opening, which gives us time to design everything and you time to get signage made, uniforms ordered, and marketing materials printed. First impressions count for everything in the beauty industry!
What makes Inkbot Design different from other branding agencies?
We specialise in small businesses and creative industries, so we really understand the unique challenges salons face. We're not some massive agency that'll treat you like just another number - we're a friendly, approachable team who genuinely care about making your business succeed. Plus, we know the beauty industry inside out, from the latest trends to what actually works on the ground. We'll give you honest, practical advice alongside beautiful design work, and we're always just a phone call away if you need support.
