Rugs – Create comfort and cosy warmth in your salon
Rugs are a great way to add both style and cosy warmth to your salon. Whether it’s soft floor rugs to create a warm and welcoming feel, or snug throws that clients can wrap around themselves, rugs are a lovely touch for any salon that wants to improve the client experience.
Why choose rugs for your salon?
- Cosy warmth and comfort: A throw around the shoulders can give your clients a sense of luxury and care while they wait for their turn.
- Improves acoustics: Floor rugs can lower the noise level and create a more relaxed atmosphere in your salon.
- Design and look: Floor rugs can add colour and texture to the room and tie the décor together.
- Flexibility: Rugs are easy to move around, which makes them ideal when you want to rearrange your salon.
Types of rugs for the salon
Floor rugs
Floor rugs work both as a decorative feature and as a practical way to protect the floor from wear and dirt. They come in many sizes, shapes, and materials, so you can choose the perfect rug to match your salon’s style. Go for rugs in neutral shades for a clean, simple look, or colourful patterns to create an eye-catcher.
Snug throws
Soft, warm throws are perfect for giving clients extra comfort while they wait. Use them in the waiting area. Consider materials like wool and/or weighted blankets for maximum cosy warmth.
How to choose the right rug
- Material: Choose hard-wearing materials like wool or man-made fibres for floor rugs, and soft materials for snug throws.
- Size: Think about where the rug will go – should it cover a large area, or just be a small detail under a waiting table?
- Colours and patterns: Match the rug to your salon’s colour scheme, or choose a contrasting design to create a real wow effect.
- Care: Make sure to choose rugs that are easy to clean and can handle the busy day-to-day in a salon.
Ideas for using rugs
- In waiting areas: Place a floor rug under a group of waiting chairs and a waiting table to mark out the area and create a cosy atmosphere.
- At workstations: Not recommended. You’re a hairdresser. You know why :)
- Decorative: Use rugs with patterns and texture to bring out your salon’s style and create a unique mood.
Frequently asked questions about rugs
Can floor rugs be used in busy salons?
Yes—so long as they are made from hard-wearing materials and are easy to clean, floor rugs can be a practical choice in busy salon settings.
How do I clean my rugs?
Floor rugs can be vacuumed regularly and deep-cleaned as needed. Snug throws you wrap around yourself can often be machine-washed, but always check the care label.
