How to Create Your Salon Business Card

When creating your salon business card, you have two options: make it yourself, or hire someone else. 

Here I will talk about the advantages of both, leaving it to you to decide which you want to do.

Creating your own hair stylist business cards

There are several design tools you can use to create hair stylist business cards.

The most widely known and easy to use is Canva. This tool is free to use and also has a pro plan. I always recommend you start with a Canva Pro plan (which is free for 30 days). This gives you access to a lot of visual assets that you’ll need when designing your business card from scratch.

You can always choose to downgrade to their free plan after 30 days if you don’t need the advanced features and design assets anymore.

Canva allows you to generate salon business card ideas, marketing material, and much more. You can choose shapes, color palettes, and different fonts, making the possibilities endless. And when you’re done, you can order your cards printed to your door.

Hiring a graphic designer

When you go with a professional, you can expect professional results.

This is, obviously, the main advantage of hiring a graphic designer for your salon business card designs.

You have two options when you want to hire a professional business card designer for your salon.

1. Start a contest with professional designers at 99designs: This is the best way to get a professionally designed business card even if you’re not sure exactly what you want your design to look like. 99designs allows you to submit a brief and have several designers send business card proposals. You can then pick the one that you want to purchase and work with the designer to get the business card exactly how you want it.
2. Hire an individual freelancer to create your logo (advanced): If you know what you want and have a specific designer you want to work with, you can hire them directly. Above I have listed several talented designers that have done some beautiful salon business cards in the past. You can reach out to them directly if you like their work. For more freelancers, you can also browse the work of designers at 99designs and hire them directly. This requires a bit more work on your side than if you just post your brief and have freelancers propose logo designs at 99design. But, it allows you to work with someone that thinks like you from start.

Conclusion

When you are in the beauty business, having the right branding is everything. Just like your salon’s logo, your business card is a very central part of your brand.

I hope this article has given you some tips and ideas for your salon business card which will be the first step in creating your high-end and premium salon brand.
