About Salon Business Tools
Salon Business Tools was created by Antony Hipkins, drawing on more than 35 years of experience in hairdressing, salon ownership and business management.
The planners help independent salon owners understand what their services genuinely need to earn. They consider the real costs of running the business, including overheads, employment costs, products, capacity, owner income and retained profit.
These are practical business-planning tools, not accounting software. Each edition turns the figures behind a busy salon into clearer pricing and management decisions, without assuming that competitors’ prices are right for your business.
Because being busy does not always mean being profitable.
