Reel and video ideas for hair salons

Clients ask about colour, upkeep and booking. Answer one question per video.

Each one works as a 30-second or one-minute video for Instagram, TikTok, Facebook or YouTube Shorts. Pick one, then make it in our builder: your first video is free.

  1. How often to book a cut

    How hair grows out of shape, and why a regular slot keeps it looking right.

    Open with: “How often should you really book a cut?”

Turning an idea into a video

  • One question, one answer. A video that tries to cover everything ends up saying nothing clearly.
  • Open with the question your customers would ask, in their words.
  • Keep each line to one idea, and say it out loud to check it sounds natural.
  • End with one next step: book, order, call or visit.
