Choosing a Name For Your Hair and Beauty Business

Hair and beauty salons have been around for at least a hundred years, which means that anyone starting one up these days has a hard job finding an original name -- there are already dozens of hairdressers called A Cut Above, Upper Cuts, Scissors and other obvious names.

You might want to use your own name as your business name in order to find something unique, but this is not always a good idea. Vidal Sassoon and John Frieda have international reputations and people will choose their salon because of this, but your name is probably not so well known. Potential customers cannot distinguish between Susie Jones Hair and Beauty and Jane Harris Hair and Beauty. Your first name can even be a hindrance. If your name is Kaylee or Madison, you are probably in your teens or early twenties, and this name might alienate older clients. Similarly, if you are an Edna or Winifred and use your own name as your business name, you will probably find it difficult to attract young women as clients, who will perceive your business as old-fashioned and irrelevant.

Once beauty salons were called beauty parlors (or parlours), but using the word Parlor as part of your name these days would suggest a tired, old-fashioned business which specialized in blue rinses and tight perms. The word Salon is becoming dated, too. To sound really modern and up-to-date, Spa is the best choice.

The names of many hair salons are based on puns: Curl Up and Dye, To Dye For, British Hairways, From Hair to Eternity are some examples. Beware if you go down this route. Humor palls after a while, and what once seemed amusing can soon make you -- and potential customers -- cringe when you say the name out loud when answering the phone or when attending business networking groups.

Thinking up a good, original name for your business takes time and effort, so set aside several hours for the task. First seek out the names of rival hair and beauty businesses and jot down any that appeal to you. You are not going to copy an existing name, but you can analyze your list and see what it is about the names that caught your attention. Perhaps you are attracted to words beginning with a particular letter of the alphabet. Perhaps all your favourite names are only two syllables long. Perhaps they all sound Italian. Any connections you make can help you seek out other words in a similar vein.

Now you need to make another list, this time by brainstorming words that could be used in your name. Hairdressing and beauty magazines and websites are a good place to start and find words that might be suitable, but don't limit yourself to material only in your own field. Qualities associated with the hair and beauty businesses include luxury, sensuousness, romance, youth and colour (among many others). These qualities are associated with other fields too, eg jewelry, precious stones, textiles, fashion and flowers, so looking at magazines, websites and reference books which deal with these subjects will give you words that might easily be transferred to the health and beauty fields -- pearl, topaz, sapphire, satin, lace, lotus and jessamine for instance. Just write down anything that catches your eye at this stage -- don't judge or edit. You may end up with a couple of hundred words, but if you have the time and inclination, look for more words from other fields eg mythology, spirituality, music, magic, wicca.

Now that you have a long list of words, go through the list eliminating anything unsuitable or any words that do not appeal. Try combining words, joining them with 'and' or finding words that begin with the same sound for a rhythmic name eg Pearl Pampering, Bliss Beauty, Beauty and Bliss, Sapphire Moon, Sparky Style.

Now you can ask for feedback from friends, family, colleagues, existing clients and, indeed, anyone else. Ask them what image the name conjures up? Would they expect it to be an expensive, or bargain-basement, salon? Does the name sound too old or too young? Can everyone pronounce your name?

Before going ahead with registering your name, check up on the practicalities: if you are planning to have a website, is the domain name available? Will the name fit on signs above your door or salon window? Can it be misread (eg seen from a distance FLICKs, when written in capital letters, can look like a rude word!)

Changing a business name a few months down the line is an expensive, time-consuming business. It makes sense to put in the effort now to choose a name that you will be happy with for the long term.

Beach Pebble Tile Products - Useful Tips!

Beach pebble tile products are interlocking panels created of flat pebbles which are commonly being manually arranged together and pasted onto a fixed size mesh backing in order to create a totally seamless natural rock panel effect. These natural tiles are available in many colors, sizes and shapes.

These tiles provide many options for countless internal as well as external finishing and other purposes including: bathroom walls and backsplashes, shower pans, kitchen walls, countertops, patios, flooring and wall coating. These easy do-it-yourself products are becoming more and more popular these days due to the fact that they open numerous designing ideas while no unique skills are needed in order to install them.

The installation process takes no more than few hours (pending the size of the surface you are about to cover), not including drying time.

Here is a quick overview on the installation process: Using these beach pebble tile products whether in the inside or the outside requires no unique skills or expensive tools / materials. All you basically need are the following materials and tools: scissors, grout, sponge, thinset mortar, trowel, grout float, sealer and paint brush.

First you need to take the sealer and brush it over the tiles before you begin with installation itself, in the second step you need to cover the surface with thinset by using the trowel and apply the rock panels aside to each other, in the last step you need to fill the space between the stones by using grout, after it dries use a wet sponge to clean the excess grout off the surface of the pebbles.

There are various benefits for using these tiles to redecorate your home or even in the office. Let's examine some of the major advantages: 1) Made of natural durable stone that holds for many years ahead. 2) Can be used on surfaces at home that have high traffic and that need a product that looks good and can stand up to a lot of action. 3) Can be easily adjusted to very small / narrow surfaces where other fixed size tiles such as conventional ceramic tiles can't.

If you plan on redecorating by using beach pebble tile products, here are some valuable tips that can help you:

1) Measure the designated area first, and then add 5%-7% more to your order just as a backup for future use and in case you may need to repair or cut small tile pieces in order to tile small /narrow spaces.

2) Order a small sample of the desired tiles prior to making a complete order - make sure it answers your expectations.

3) Epoxy based grouts are considered stronger that conventional grout, however take in mind that they are less forgiving to the ignorant installer.

Beach pebble tile products provide innumerable ideas for both the inside and external due to the fact that they come in various shades, colors and sizes; they are easy to be used and relatively inexpensive as compared with other alternatives.

Moroccan Rugs - Interpret your Moroccan Rug and What Magic it May Carry

Weaving is a long running tradition in Morocco. Since very early in its history, Morocco has been making beautiful woven materials. The country is most well-known for its hand-woven, intricately detailed rugs and carpets. Some Moroccans have these tapestries in their home simply for their beauty and function, while others purchase them for their magical powers and ability to ward off the evil eye.

Even the loom used for weaving is the ultimate symbol of magical protection. It is seen by the weaver as a living thing and treated as one. The loom is thought to possess baraka. This term refers to a sense of divine presence, charisma or wisdom that is transmitted from the loom to the weaver.

The others tools used by the weaver are also thought to have magical powers. Scissors, weaving combs and knives help to counter the effect of the evil eye. Often the tools have beautifully carved handles and designs to counter the different evils of the world.

Upon its completion, the textile is thought to have taken on all the powers of the tools used. The finished design is considered a woven "net" giving protection against evil forces.

To determine if your Moroccan rug posses any baraka, you need to look at the materials used and the designs woven into it. For example, wool is considered lucky, so if your rug is made of wool, or has wool in it, then it will bring good luck to your home.

The most frequently used motif is that of Fatima's hand, which is used to ward off the evil eye. This design can be woven in many stylized variations and can include crosses and other geometric shapes.

Crosses are often woven into design at right angles, diagonally or in a linear sequence. Triangle, lozenges, eyes or tattoos may be incorporated with the cross. The cross is believed to have the power first to draw in evil spirits and then disperse them into the six directions of the ancient Moroccan universe, north, south, east, west, above, and below.

Another dominant design used to avert evil from the home is the central red oculus, a type of tree found in the snow capes of the western High Atlas Berbers. Woven with the tree is a lizard, a symbol passed down from the ancient sun cults. Designs made around the lizard, both inside and out, are seen as eyes. The energy that flows from the eyes is represented with curved and wavy lines.

The lizard is also used in many other popular designs. If a woven design includes snakes, lizards, scorpions or turtles, it is believed to bring fertility and protect against adultery.

These are just a few examples of the many, many designs used in Moroccan textiles. When purchasing a Moroccan rug, keep in mind the powers it is believed to possess. Find out what your particular design means and the carpet will not only bring beauty to a room, but also a whole new personality.
