At some point, we have all thought about how we could cut our costs. At FLOWww, we have decided to dedicate this week to help you save money at your beauty salon or clinic.
For this reason, we have provided you with some practical advice on how you can put this into action. This process doesn't involve making any drastic changes and won't affect the quality of the service you provide at your clinic. The changes you make will be so small that you'll hardly even notice them, although you will notice the results!
Are you ready to get going?
1. When you are looking for new electrical appliances for your beauty salon, choose the right model. Opt for good quality products that guarantee years of effective duration are eco-friendly, and energy-efficient.
2. Always switch off your electrical appliances when you are not using them. Don't leave them on standby! Fill up your washing machine, use quick wash programs, and, whenever possible, dry your washing in the sun. If you use a dishwasher, use the economy wash or low-temperature programs.
3. Economize on water by installing low-flow aerators and sensor-controlled faucets, as these will help you to reduce water consumption without causing any noticeable difference for your customers. Take a look at more tips on how to save water by clicking on this link.
4. Change your light bulbs to energy-efficient ones. This may be a more expensive to begin with, but you will reduce your monthly energy consumption.
5. Go easy on your air con now that temperatures are beginning to rise! Don't set the temperature lower than 24-25ºC. When you switch on your air con, don't alter the thermostat to a lower temperature than its normal one.
6. In winter, place a thermostat in each treatment room in your beauty salon, as if they were thermostatic valves on radiators. In this way, you can regulate the temperature of each room more precisely, and you can also program the timer for when you want your heating to switch on and off.
7. A great way to take care of the environment and your finances is by using organic cosmetics. Furthermore, if you do this, you will receive double the amount of satisfaction. Don't forget to keep your cosmetics in recycled glass containers!
8. Use ecological textiles. AITEX, a Spanish Textile Research Institute, has created a green label in order to distinguish textile products elaborated with materials which are not harmful to our health.
