Another month nearly over, we are still waiting here in the UK for a date to reopen salons and while we wait keeping in touch with clients is something we can do to keep ourselves connected with our audience on social media. Here are the July awareness days coming up.

7th – Word Chocolate Day 

Yum! As if we need an excuse, although we prefer our chocolate chilled so melted and dipped in strawberries might work best at this time of year. Find out about your clients, what’s their favourite kind of chocolate? How do they eat it, engage with clients while you can’t see them at the moment. Post a quiz, if you have a search on google for ‘chocolate quiz’ there are some great ones where you need to guess the chocolate bar just by a picture of the inside. Great fun but just make sure you have the answers so you don’t have frustrated clients!!

10th – Pina Colada Day

Lots of us are missing out on our holidays this year but we can bring that holiday feeling with a Pina Colada. keep your eye on the SkinBase blog for our Pina Colada recipe to share with clients!

11th – National Mojito Day

Pina Colada day on the 10th and now Mojito day! We love a mojito and you can even make these alcohol free and they are just as delicious and you can make these non-alcoholic versions with the kids or why not serve them in the salon.

16th – Get to know your customers day

Great time to get to know your customers, use this for market research, what’s their favourite at-home beauty treat? Find out what special treats your clients love and you can make sure you are stocked up on these at key times of the year like Christmas and Valentine’s day.

17th  – World Emoji Day 

A great one to get some interaction with your social post. Get people to comment with the first 5 emojis on their phone so you can see what their current mood is. It’s usually quite funny to actually think about which emojis you use all the time.

30th – International Friendship Day

What gifts do you retail? Let clients know what you’ve got in stock so they can treat their friends on friendship day.

Rebecca Willshee Nail and Beauty Specialist

Testimonial: “JC was so low, suicidal at points. Sore, red, angry, his skin was awful, we had tried everything and doctors you name it. We reached out to Becky, who was wonderful. My son was quiet and withdrawn, lacked confidence and self esteem, and locked himself away from the world. Becky booked us in for a consultation to discuss different options of treatments and we decided the new hydro treatment would be the best option. We started the course and JC was nervous but Becky was great with him talking him through everything, step by step! As we went each time JC’s skin got better and better, but also the difference in him was huge, he was gaining confidence, shoulders back, head held high. We have watched his skin change from this red, aggressive, angry skin that was sore, acne was debilitating to him but now he is confident, holds his head up high and has even got his first job! We are so proud. When we met Becky I felt confident she would help us get his skin better and back on track but what has actually happened is skin looks amazing but to see our son gain confidence has been the biggest win! Teens often get pushed aside, put on string meds and told “it’s just your age” but this isn’t what they want to hear, but The SkinBase treatments Becky has done has changed his life! We cannot thank you enough Becky! JC is continuing with the treatments as it still gets the odd breakouts but the scarring is still improving week in week out. The hydro Facial is just amazing and we cannot recommend it enough and of course Becky and her passion for skin and helping people is wonderful!”
