Fall Inspired Salon Suite Decor for Salon Suite Professionals

5 Lovely Fall-Inspired Salon Suite Decor Ideas

Happy fall, y’all - at least that’s what everyone’s front yard lawn signs are telling us! Needless to say, most people have “fallen” in love with fall, and they’ll undoubtedly appreciate your salon suite embracing the season. Here are five great ways to do it:

1. Adopt a Fall Color Palette

While summer may be all about bright and perky, fall takes on a richer and warmer approach. You’ll want to replace your spunky shades with a fall color palette, including burnt orange, rustic red, earth brown, and mustard yellow. You can add this detailing however you please, from decor items to furniture, painted walls, and accessories.

Tip: You’ll want to extend the fall color palette and theme to your social media, too. This will be far more enticing to clients and ensure you’re on brand in all areas.

2. Add Fall Decor Everywhere

Nothing will bring your fall-themed salon suite together quite like the right decor. There are plenty of options out there, but here are some of the crowd favorites you won’t want to skip out on:

• Pumpkins: Nothing says “fall” quite like pumpkins. After all, fall is the ultimate season for pumpkin patches, pumpkin-spiced treats, and pumpkin carving - to name a few. That said, you can’t go wrong with adding adorable pumpkins to your salon suite. Place them on shelves, counters, and anywhere else you can think of. Want to take it to the next level? Consider painting your pumpkins to add a personal touch that’s unique to your suite.
• Seasonal florals: We can certainly say that summer has some gorgeous florals, but they have nothin’ on the beauty of fall foliage! Add some seasonal florals to your salon. Think sunflowers, mums, or any other favorite flowers depicting classic fall hues. 
• Plaid pieces: Another must for fall? Plaid, of course. But plaid doesn’t have to be restricted to your flannels. It can also be incorporated into your salon suite. Opt for decorations with a plaid texture, like pillow covers or table runners. 
• Chalkboard signs: There is something oh-so-fall about a cute chalkboard sign, which you can use to your advantage. Consider writing a quintessential fall message that resonates with clients, such as “Fall in love with your new look today.” 

3. Make it Smell Like Fall

It’s really not enough to look like fall. You need to truly embrace the season by ensuring your salon suite smells like it, too. That said, head on over to your favorite candle shop and opt for one of these flavors:

• Pumpkin Spice: This is the obvious pick for fall and will always be a crowd favorite. That said, if you want to keep things simple yet spectacular, reach for the pumpkin-scented candle.
• Clove: Clove is an excellent option if you want a bit more depth, plus a pop of spice in your candle scent.
• Apple Cinnamon: If you’re more “team apple” than “team pumpkin” when it comes to fall flavors, don’t hesitate to grab an apple cinnamon candle and add it to your salon suite.
• Maple Leaves: Maple leaves are the ideal choice for those who love a deliciously sweet candle burning in their vicinity. It’s still on theme for fall, yet it has a very sweet scent you’ll appreciate. 

4. Don’t Forget the Fall Playlist

So far, we’ve covered two main senses: see and smell. But what about hearing? To tie your fall theme together, you’ll want to switch up your playlist for a fall-friendly one. 

If you’re not entirely sure how to do this, don’t panic. Plenty of streaming software, like Pandora and Spotify, have “fall playlists” you can utilize in your salon. This takes the guesswork out of the situation and will ensure a steady stream of fall-inspired tunes for your guests to enjoy.

You can also put together your own playlist, although that can be more challenging. Everyone has a different depiction of what “good music” is. However, most individuals have ranked a few bands as “iconic fall artists,” including Mumford and Sons, The Lumineers, Fleetwood Mac, and Bon Iver.

5. Beyond Aesthetics: Food and Drink

Okay, so you’re really trying to bring the fall theme to life inside your salon—that’s great! We have the perfect idea to help you go above and beyond: fall-inspired food and drink. Bring festive flavors to your salon and serve them to your guests. 

Some ideas include:

• Pumpkin spice lattes
• Apple cider
• Chai lattes
• Pumpkin muffins
• Caramel apples
• Spiced nuts

Whatever you decide to add to your fall-themed food and snack list, it's vital to offer the treats in fall-inspired bowls and mugs. You can find charming options at plenty of stores in person and online, including Amazon, TJ Maxx, and Target.

Fall-Friendly Treatments and Services to Consider

Deep Conditioning Treatments

Although winter is the most prominent time for dried-out tresses, fall is the beginning of the “dry” end. This year, help your customers fight back against dryness by offering deep conditioning treatments. Try and find products that have a lovely fall scent while still being able to get the job done.

Fall-Inspired Facials

For the pumpkin-obsessed clients (and there’s a good chance there’s plenty of them!), it’s time to bust out the iconic “pumpkin facial.” Aside from being one of the most delicious-smelling facials you’ll ever perform, pumpkin facials are also highly beneficial for the skin. It offers the following:

• Exfoliation: Pumpkin is known as a natural exfoliant thanks to its inclusion of enzymes and alpha hydroxy acids. Exfoliating removes dead skin cells and produces a glowing complexion, perfect for fall pictures at the pumpkin patch.
• Antioxidants: Want to fight off the signs of aging? Antioxidants to the rescue - and pumpkin has plenty of them awaiting your customers!
• Hydration: Fall can make the hair feel dried out and extend to the skin, too. Ensure your clients have moisturized skin with a pumpkin facial. The high water content and vitamins will keep their faces nourished. 

Themed Nail Designs

What goes great with your favorite fall attire? Fall nails, of course! It’s the perfect addition to any style, completing your look and making you look like a fall supermodel. It’s no wonder why it’s bound to be a big hit in your salon suite!

If you consider yourself someone truly sensational at nail art, now’s the time to add all the fall-themed designs to your clients. Pumpkins, fall leaves, apples - they name it, you design it.

For those who stick to gorgeous manicures instead of intricate nail designs, you’ll want to introduce top shades to your customers. Deep plum, coffee, and gold are a few of the top choices for fall 2024.

Create Fall Packages to Entice Clients

Our final piece of advice to rock the fall season is to introduce fall packages to entice current and future clientele. For example, if your main focus is hair, you could introduce a “fall refresher” package with a deep hydration treatment followed by a color touch-up and trim for a discounted price.
