For most clients, the backwash experience is the most rewarding part of a salon visit – a chance to sit back, unwind and relax. Given that they’re already in pampering mode, it’s a prime opportunity to maximise their experience – and your earnings – by offering them a treatment, too.

With the recently relaunched BC range from Schwarzkopf Professional, there’s a treatment for every haircare need. From an added veil of protection for freshly-coloured hair to problem-solving for dry or stressed scalps, these services aren’t just relaxing, they’re results-focussed too.

For clients in a hurry, pampering doesn’t have to mean taking too much time out of their schedule. Just ten minutes is all it takes to provide an express treatment, leaving hair restored, mind balanced and senses soothed. It’s a chance for them to switch off and unwind, while enjoying a service they’ve already scheduled out time for – win win.

Here are the solutions we prescribe for your client’s hair care problems – and your profits.
