Starting a salon comes with a considerable amount of pressure. The requirements can be too many, but when fulfilled, your business is assured a smooth flow.

‍

This article is a run-down of all the important forms from the usual consent forms to the easily forgettable, yet equally important client intake forms. 

‍

A complete list of all the important salon forms

‍

1. Salon consent forms

Salons employ a wide variety of skin treatments and skin care products. And at times, some of them could interact negatively with your customers' physiology. 

‍

While salon owners communicate any existing product or treatment risks, a consent form will exempt you from taking a fall in case things end badly.

‍

A salon liability waiver is also another form, after consent, that says, in case a beauty procedure goes wrong, the stylist or salon owner will not be held legally responsible. Nevertheless, it's expected that you inform your customer of the potential risks affiliated with certain procedures and products.

‍

Basically, every service you offer has to have a liability or consent form. For example, eyelash extension consent form, waxing consent form, nail salon consent form, microblading consent form, etc.

‍

2. Client intake (new client forms)

Client intake forms are some of the most important documents an operating business should have. By coming to you, service buyers already expect that you will do a bang up job. Nevertheless, they still need to capture their expectations in writing.

‍

New clients forms can include anything about customers, their personal information, preferences, lifestyles, etc.

‍

Intake forms must be filled every time a customer comes in, wether the first or hundreth and one time. This because lifestyles change and that means one is not in the same state as the last visit.

3. Appointment forms

Much of the details in the appointment forms can be captured in the new client forms, but if you dont want intake forms to become longer, you can have appointment forms to cover the clients needs, beauty products history, their lifestyles and any other relevant inquiry. 

‍

4. Survey forms

Without feedback, how do you how or where to touch to turn things around for each of your clients? It would be tough, right? But if you ask for feedback, especially through forms, you get honest truth about your services and what to do.

Having an exhaustive list of salon forms makes your business legally compliant.

‍

To run a well-streamlined business, you will have to resort to premium custom templates or use one that comes with your salon marketing software.

‍

The templates need to be customizable to allow you to match your needs and branding style. The best ones can easily and conveniently be embedded on your website, salon POS and other important business touch points.

‍

A good form should be editable, downloadable, and printable and allow conversion to other forms without the need for technical coding skills.
