Hairdressers 2025: the Respect that Makes the Sector Grow
Editorial by Max Randi – Director of Il Magazine del Parrucchiere
2025 is a year of important transformations for the hair & beauty world. Salons are becoming increasingly digital, customers are demanding personalized services and companies are running after innovation.
Within all this, one word seems the most neglected and instead it is the most necessary: respect.
📌 Respect for professionals
Those who work every day in the salon know it: the profession of hairdresser is not just about cutting and coloring. It is management, training, sacrifice, customer relations and continuous updating.
Yet this commitment is not always recognized. Too often the hairdresser is seen as a “service provider” and not as a true beauty entrepreneur.
📌 Respect between companies and salons
Respect must apply in both directions:
- Companies need to stop looking at salons only as revenue numbers.
- Salons must learn to value themselves more, to treat as equals, to demand fairer conditions.
Only in this way does the sector grow in a healthy way, because the relationship becomes collaboration and not exploitation.
📌 Respect in communication
It also applies to the media and to those who report on the sector: respect is needed in tone, timing and in recognizing serious projects.
Quality information helps hairdressers and companies to grow together, to make themselves better understood by the end customer and to build a more solid image.
📌 Conclusion
Respect is not a detail: it is the basis on which to build the future of the hair & beauty industry.
A sector that, if it recognizes the value of those who really work in the field, can grow much more.
And now the question is simple: do you, in your salon or in your company, feel respected enough?
Tell me in the comments: your experience is the key to making everyone understand how the industry needs to change.
