We are creatures of habit, and we like to feel reassured when seeking professional services. A great way to create a streamline and professional look is to choose to wear a professional beauty uniform.
When a client has come in to see you, if you were wearing a stylish salon uniform the first time you met, it can help them feel more at ease. Furthermore, you can create your own unique look by choosing to always wear the same colour uniform. You can also add versatility to your look by mixing and matching between salon dresses and beauty tunics.
2. Add a brand identity
Obviously what big brands do really well is creating a memorable brand identity. This means we instantly recognize a brand, either from glancing at a logo, or seeing a member of staff. If you run a salon or beauty business, create that brand identity through your look. Whether you’re a one-man band or you employ a whole team, a great place to start with brand identity is with beauty uniforms.
Create that polished look and have your team dress in the same style and colour. You can even match your salon uniforms with your branding. Add an extra professional touch and have staff wear a name badge, to make getting to know team members easier for clients.
3. Take away the guess work with a beauty uniform
For those who don’t wear a uniform to work, getting dressed in the morning can sometimes be challenging, as can shopping for appropriate work outfits! Take the guess work out and make looking professional and stylish for work simple, by choosing to wear a beauty tunic or salon wear dress. Usually, when you know exactly what you are going to wear for the day, your morning routine can be made much more straight forward.
4. Create a look for your mobile business
Mobile therapists to in-salon treatments, when the reality is many of you run extremely successful and high-end mobile businesses. Help reinforce the idea that you are a professional business offering a little at-home luxury by choosing to wear a stylish beauty uniform.
5. Feel comfortable and look stylish
Salon wear is designed with the role of a beauty therapist in mind. Furthermore, they are made specifically to help keep you cool and comfortable during your working day. At Diamond Designs, we also focus on style, so not only can you feel comfortable and able to move freely in your beauty uniform all day, you will also look stylish and professional.

6. Create a streamline look that’s interchangeable for the seasons
When you’ve worked hard to create a salon look, the last thing you want is to feel like you’re unable to stick to it. Therefore, during the summer months, salon uniforms that keep you cool and comfortable are a must. In the winter, a beauty uniform that you can layer is ideal.
We aim to create a variety of uniforms that will keep your brand look going all year round. You can choose from dresses, tunics, trousers and jumpsuits. Also, mix and match during the year. Our top tip is to choose a salon colour that everyone can wear all year round. Then, mix and match salon uniform styles depending on the season.
7. Make things simple for staff
While we love the idea of being able to wear whatever we want to work, realistically wearing a uniform makes life that little bit easier. In other words, providing several uniforms for staff members ensures they always look smart at work. Having more than one beauty tunic or dress gives your staff time to wash their uniforms in between wear. This way they are always able to wear a clean and ironed uniform to work.
8. Avoid damaging your own clothes
When you work in the beauty industry, you’ll know all too well that accidents can happen. Wax can be split on your trousers, and oils can end up on your sleeves. In order to ensure you and your staff don’t damage your clothing, choose to provide beauty uniforms to your staff.
All of our uniforms are easy to care for, so when spills do happen, you know your staff won’t be upset. A firm favourite when it comes to beauty uniforms is the Rosie Dress.
9. Embrace the industry
Be proud of what you do and don’t be afraid to show it, by choosing to wear a salon uniform for your working day. While many uniforms are subtly stylish, the iconic beauty tunic style clearly communicates what you do. The beauty industry is a fantastic industry to be involved with, with amazing brands and salons within it, it’s one of the fastest developing industries in the world, and what’s more, you help people feel beautiful and great about themselves. So wear your beauty tunic proudly, and feel confident in the fact that you work for a great industry, and get to wear a stylish salon uniform each and every day.
