For salons
Never keep a client waiting.
Keep the products you love ready for every appointment.
- See colour and supplies by shelf.
- Update stock as you use it.
- Notice low stock in time.
Keep your attention on the person in the chair.
The next appointment is almost here, and the colour you need is somewhere between the treatment trolley and the back room. Someone remembers opening another tube, but nobody is quite sure what remains. In a small salon, these questions compete with the work clients actually come for. Tana helps you give colour products, gels, shampoos, and everyday supplies a clear home in your inventory, so preparing for an appointment begins with a shared record instead of another conversation across the room.
Organize stock around the way your salon works. Keep a separate storage for the colour cupboard, the nail station, and the retail shelf, and use product names that include the shade or size your team recognizes. Photos can help distinguish similar packaging when someone is checking a record. If you have more than one salon, locations can group each site’s storages. That gives the team a way to look at the overall quantity while still checking where the products are physically kept.
When a delivery arrives or a product is used, update the relevant quantity. Decide together whether an item represents a sealed tube, a bottle, or another consistent counting unit; the usefulness of the record depends on everyone following the same convention. Low-stock thresholds can highlight items whose recorded total is running down. Before the next supplier order, check those items and compare them with your actual shelves, your appointment plans, and the products you expect to use most often during the coming week.
You do not need to catalogue the entire salon in one afternoon. Start with the colour range or consumables that most often cause a last-minute search. Print QR labels for the storage area, use search to find a familiar product, and keep quantity updates part of opening or closing routines. A filtered CSV can give you a list for a stock check. Tana brings that modest daily discipline into one shared view, leaving more room for consultations, careful treatment, and the welcoming details that make the salon yours.
