For Adamson Jones in Llandudno, successful retail starts with understanding the client. By putting consultation, education and hair health first, the salon has built a loyal client base and found a natural way to recommend homecare.
Over the past 14 years, the salon has established a reputation for curly hair expertise, education and high-performing products that align with its values.
Choosing Products That Reflect Their Values
Owner Emma is clear about what matters when choosing brands: cruelty-free products, hair health and performance without compromising on ethics.
Daily Naturals was a natural fit, aligning with the salon’s philosophy while offering professional performance and considered ingredients. With support from Salon Business Solutions, the team found products they could confidently recommend to clients.
The Curl Cream has become a favourite for enhancing, moisturising and defining curls, while the shampoos and conditioners have also proved popular, with built-in UV protection offering an additional benefit.
At Adamson Jones, retail isn't about selling for the sake of it. It's about helping clients maintain their results at home.
Emma explains: “It’s never a hard sell. I’m never selling anything to a client. I’m just helping them achieve the same look and longevity at home.”
The team starts by asking clients about their hair concerns, current routines and desired results. By explaining which products they're using and why, recommendations become a natural extension of the salon service.
Clients can see and feel the difference in their hair, helping build confidence in the products and encouraging repeat purchases.
Education is central to the salon's approach, from developing the team's knowledge of curly hair, colour and hair health to delivering professional training through Adamson Jones The Academy. This expertise helps stylists better understand individual needs, recommend the right homecare and show clients how to recreate their salon results between appointments.
Adamson Jones continues to focus on curly hair expertise, scalp health, education and supporting the next generation of hair professionals.
The salon's success highlights an important lesson for other businesses: when consultation comes first, products align with salon values and recommendations are backed by expertise, retail becomes more than an additional revenue stream.
It becomes another way to help clients achieve great hair every day.
