Lighting for Hairdressing Salon


Lighting and lighting are important to consider in all different environments, and in a hairdressing salon, the lighting is extremely important for getting satisfied customers and staff! Much daylight combined with light from good LED lights is recommended in a hairdressing salon. If you have limited admission of daylight, the lighting is there even more important for both work results and saloon staff's health.

Which lighting is right for hairdressers?

The working environment in a hairdressing salon should provide good general lighting in combination with a good work light to give as good color and cutting results as possible.

The optimum hairdressing lighting is an even light, this to avoid any shadows and the risk of reflex glare. The lighting should also have a neutral colored light in order not to affect how hair dyes are experienced, we recommend a slightly whiter light of 4000K for best results. The reason we do not exceed 4000K in color temperature is to avoid the blue that can occur in colder light colors. There will be no pleasant atmosphere inside the salon for neither staff nor customers.

High color rendering is crucial

However, as well as the color temperature influencing, it is also important to have a luminaire with a high RA value, ie high color rendering, in order to best see the results of hair dyes and the like. In a salon, we recommend RA80.

Lighting for salon & studio

Do you have a salon or studio that is not just a hairdressing salon? About the same recommendations apply to beauty salon, nail salon, and massage salon, tattoo studio, make-up studio and so on. That is, even light with high color rendering. This is to ensure quality for both workers and customers.

Recommended LED lights for hairdressing lighting

As lighting in a hairdressing salon, we recommend our LED flat premium 4000K with RA90. This luminaire achieves all the qualities you are looking for in hairdressing lighting, an even light with 4000K in color temperature and an RA value of 90. The LED plate is also dimmable depending on which drive unit is connected, which allows you to adjust the amount of light at different times. One can advantageously combine the panel lighting with LED spotlight on the rail to be able to direct light into the room, against products or at cutting stations.
