with your local government. Choose a catchy name and select your business’s legal structure. Register your business with your state or province, then apply for a federal tax identification number.  You could name your salon after yourself, reference your neighborhood in the name, or name it after things you like. For instance, if you love camellias, you could name your salon Camellia Beauty. Keep in mind there are limits on what you can choose for a business name. For instance, a name might not be available or your state might prohibit some words. Consult an attorney or accountant to choose the best legal structure. A limited liability company (LLC) is the best choice for many small business owners, as your assets are protected in the event that your business faces a lawsuit or bankruptcy. Your requirements depend on your location, so check your local government website for information about business licenses and insurance. Additionally, you might need a cosmetology license or licenses to perform other services, such as nails or hair removal.  It typically takes between 9 and 12 months to complete a cosmetology program. Specialist programs, such as nails, usually take 6 months.  Other requirements might include a business owner's insurance policy (which covers general liability and commercial property), general business license, home occupation permit, sign permit, and health and safety permits. Search online for “cosmetology board” and your state or province. Your local board’s website will provide information about how to legally operate a home salon. Depending on your home’s existing layout, you might need to make adjustments to meet local codes. Many jurisdictions require a permanent wall between the salon and the part of the house where you live. Additionally, the salon might need a separate entrance and public restroom.  You could apply for a business loan from your bank, open a line of credit, or find a silent partner to finance renovations and other opening expenses. If you don’t own your home, you’ll need to get permission to operate a business and make any necessary renovations from your landlord. A wet station is a large ceramic sink for shampooing and conditioning clients' hair. Some customers expect a wash to be included with a cut, and access to water is essential if you offer additional services, such as coloring. While an ordinary sink or tub might work, you’ll have a better shot at gaining customer loyalty if you have a professional salon sink. Your salon should reflect your tastes and create a soothing, comfortable atmosphere. Light, soft greens and blues are good wall color choices, and plants are great decorative features. Brainstorm potential looks by creating a mood board with colors, images, and design elements that inspire you. Additionally, large mirrors, comfortable chairs or a bench for reception, and shelving for equipment storage and retail display are all must-haves. A salon chair is a basic requirement, and you can find one online or at a beauty supply store for $100 to $300. Purchase scissors and razors, and stock up on shampoo, conditioner, toner, hair spray, hair gel, and hair mousse. Keep in mind you’ll need to replace your product inventory regularly.  Look for brand name hair products that your clients will be familiar with and trust. You can buy hair products at a beauty supply store or online. If you'll offer hair coloring and extensions, you'll need to stock up on products for these services as well. Your website should include images of your space, your address and contact information, and information about the services you offer. Instagram, Facebook, and other social media platforms allow you to promote your services with before and after pictures, hashtags, and unique or quirky statuses that reflect your personality.  Update your social media profiles daily to engage your customers. When you're just starting out, ask your friends, family, and other members of your social network to like your page. With your clients’ consent, post before and after pictures on Facebook and Instagram. Encourage them to mention you on social media and to use your business’s hashtags.

Article: To use your Beauty Blender to apply foundation, concealer, blush, highlighter, setting powder, or any face makeup, press the damp sponge into the makeup. Don't dab it too hard, though, or you may wind up picking up too much product.  For makeup products such as foundation, tinted moisturizer, BB cream, or concealer, it helps to put some on the back of your hand and dab the sponge into it there. For the best results, don't apply the makeup directly to the Beauty Blender. For makeup products that are in a compact, such as cream blush or highlighter, you can dab the sponge directly into the pan. For loose powder products, such as setting powder, shake some into the lid and dab the sponge into it there. For makeup items that you'll be applying to large areas of the face, such as a foundation or cream blush, dab the rounded bottom of the sponge into the makeup. For makeup that you're concentrating in small areas, such as concealer under the eyes or highlighter along the cheekbones, dab the pointed end of the sponge into the makeup. When you've dabbed some of the makeup onto the sponge, tap the round bottom against your skin to apply the makeup. Don't wipe the sponge across your face, but bounce it to gently stipple or press the makeup into the skin for a flawless finish.  Stipple the sponge over your skin until all of the makeup is evenly blended. It may take a couple of bounces in the same area to fully blend the makeup. You don't have to press the sponge very hard against your skin to blend the makeup. Bounce it gently, and the sponge will do the rest of the work. To apply concealer or foundation under the eyes, around the nose, along the lips, or in another small areas, press the pointed edge of the Beauty Blender against the skin. You'll want to press a little harder than you would with the rounded edge to ensure that the makeup is completely blended into the skin. Because the Beauty Blender sponge is so absorbent, it can easily grow bacteria. You want it to be clean the next time you use it, so try to get in the habit of washing it after each use to ensure that it's always ready when you need it.  Beauty Blender makes a liquid and a solid sponge designed specifically for washing your sponge. If you're on a budget, you can also wash your sponge with an antibacterial, fragrance-free dishwashing soap. A bar of antibacterial soap also works well for cleaning a Beauty Blender. To wash it, moisten the sponge with warm water and work some of the soap or cleanser into it. Create a lather, and keep washing until the water from the sponge runs clear. If there's a stain on your sponge that doesn't come clean from washing, soak it in a mixture of liquid soap and warm water overnight. If the makeup still doesn't come out of the sponge, try treating it with a thin oil, such as baby oil, before washing it. The oil can help break down the makeup that's trapped inside. Let your Beauty Blender sit out to air dry after you wash it.
