In the hair and beauty industry social media is becoming a great tool for sharing with friends good salons to visit and new treatments to try. Some salons are offering that customers can be entered into a prize draw if the put up a picture of themselves in the salon having a treatment and share it on their own social media page. This is a great way to advertise as the customer has a prize incentive and in sharing their photo with their friends it will encourage future business for the salon.
