Less searching for the shade you need.

The colour shade you need is missing from its shelf. Has it moved to a trolley, or is there a spare in the back room? Asking colleagues can interrupt preparations for the next appointment. Recording colour products and haircare supplies with their quantities and storage places in Tana gives everyone a shared starting point for finding what they need.

Name colour products by maker, range, and shade code, and shampoos or treatments by type and size. Register variations separately when they need their own counts, and add photos to distinguish similar packaging. Set up storages for the colour cupboard, trolleys, back room, and retail shelf to see each product’s total and its quantity in each place. Staff can check where supplies for appointments and products for retail are kept.

Agree on counting units, such as individual unopened tubes or refill bags. If you count unopened stock, reduce the quantity by one when a tube is opened, and update records when deliveries arrive, retail products sell, or stock moves between storages. Set low-stock thresholds to help avoid running out of regular products. These use the total across all storages, so check individual storage quantities when deciding whether a trolley needs refilling. QR labels open shelf records directly, and CSV exports help with stocktakes.

Tana’s AI inventory management is a great fit for hair salons

Use Tana’s AI inventory management to ask about recorded stock: “How many tubes of range A, shade 8N do we have, and where are they?” or “Which shampoos are running low?” You can also request a quantity update, such as “Add the six tubes of range A, shade 8N that arrived today to the colour cupboard.”
