FAQ

What is a fancy name for a hair business?

A hairstylist pointing to a list of fancy business name terms that includes parlor, beauty bar, and boutique.

A hair business with a fancy name might use upscale words such as parlor, beauty bar, or boutique. Consider mixing and matching luxury terms with ordinary words like shop or establishment.

How do I market my hair salon business?

Some of the best ways to successfully market your hair salon business include sharing before-and-after photos on social media accounts and maintaining a Google Business Profile. You may also want to start a loyalty program, offer referral discounts, or partner with other beauty businesses to expand your outreach.

Making it easy for customers to book and pay for appointments is also part of a stellar customer experience. Consider adding online booking to your website and allow people to easily pay with different payment options. 

One of my wife’s favorite hair stylists allows people to pay using Venmo and encourages them to do it publicly so that people are always seeing payments for hair. This effectively acts as a way to market her hair company.

When you’re paying for marketing, you’ll want to define your target audience and only run ads during hours you’re open. Make sure to track and optimize your campaigns to maximize results.

Hair salon logo design ideas

In addition to a hair company business name, you’ll probably want a logo. Many hair salons use logos that either have a silhouette of a person’s head, scissors, or other hair styling tools. Canva has hundreds of hair salon logo templates.

Where can I check business licenses and permit requirements?

You can check the requirements to start a hair business on the secretary of state’s website for your area. Most states require you to attend cosmetology school before you can start your own hair business. Other permits and licensing may be necessary.

How do you check if the name of a company already exists?

A barbershop owner holding clippers and pointing to a search bar that says hair company name.

To check if a hair company name exists, start by using a search engine. Normally, you’ll get results if there are any businesses using the hair company names you like. If you don’t find a website or social media handles for your favorite hair business names, that’s a good indicator that nobody is currently using them.

You’ll also want to perform a business name search on your secretary of state’s website to see if your preferred name is available in your state. Once you confirm that no one else is using it, you can register as a limited liability company.

You’ll also want to check the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office to verify that your desired hair company names aren’t trademarked by another entity. You can’t use the name when someone has trademarked it because you’d be infringing upon their intellectual property.
