Gone are the days when people used their mobile phones to simply communicate with others. With advancements in telecommunications we can now check our stocks, listen to music, and read our emails all from our smart phone. So when will the day come when we can run our entire business from our cellular phone? For those of you in the salon industry that day is today.
Several applications are available in Apple’s iTunes store that makes it possible for salon professionals to manage their salon appointment software from their iPhone/iPad. Currently the honor of Apple’s most downloaded and highest rated beauty salon software application belongs to the Vagaro Pro, a product of Vagaro.com, which is an up and coming salon and spa software company based out of Pleasanton, California.
So, why would a hairstylist choose to abandon their paper scheduling books to keep all of their precious business information in their cell phone? Well, for starters their appointments and records are much safer when stored inside their mobile phone. Companies maintaining the salon and spa software backup all of their customer’s information in their servers, so if their phone is lost or stolen, the information is safe and can easily be accessed by the stylist. This is not the case for paper scheduling books, where in most cases if you lose your book, you’re out of luck.
The second advantage of running your salon appointment software from your smart phone is accessibility. Most people keep their cell phone with them at all times which is not always the case with salon stylist’s paper books. You never know when you will bump into a client, so it is always nice to have your beauty salon software handy, just in case.
These are just two of the numerous basic features that many of the beauty salon software companies offer their customers, but many of these companies offer other convenient options for their salons and spas as well. For example, the aforementioned Vagaro.com provides their customers with the ability to charge credit cards from their iPhone/iPad and they also give their salons a webpage where customers can book appointments online 24/7. Clients also receive confirmation emails and text messages to remind them of their appointments, a handy option that saves stylists time and energy. To find out more information on Vagaro.com you can visit their website at www.vagaro.com/iphone.
Reliable salon software that is always by your side is an offer that can’t be beat, right? So by now you must be asking, what’s the catch? Well, some companies may try to charge you an arm and a leg for something this great, but trust me it is possible to find salon and spa software that can fit your budget, you just need to look for it. Google searches for, “salon software iPhone” is a great place to start looking for your beauty salon software or the iTunes App Store is a guaranteed place to find an application that is dependable and affordable.
So, with all of the benefits to running your business from your mobile phone it appears that the salon industry is setting the trend for the next wave of the future. Only time will tell who will be the next to follow, but with certainty we can say there will be others.

Build
The iPad truly is a beautiful devious. On look at it and you will feel that we have jumped forward twenty years into the future. The iPad’s exteriors is a combination of aluminum and reinforced plastic. Like most Apple mobile devices, the iPad only has one button: the home bottom found on the bottom of the iPad when help in portrait. There is the usually audio jack for those who want to plug in headphones, and also a mic. The iPad speakers do their jobs, but they are not going to blow you away with their quality.
The iPad has the standard Apple external connector which is the only way you can hook up the iPad to other devious due to the lack of a flash drive. However, there are many devious that can connect to the iPad and more are being custom built for the iPad and should be coming out soon.
The iPad weighs 1.5 pounds. It is significantly lighter than a laptop, but much heavier than your average smart phone or mobile devious. You will begin to feel the exertion in your wrist after hold the iPad for about half an hour.
Display
The iPad display is truly something to see. It packs 1024×768 pixels in its screen which seems like a low number, but images are crisp nevertheless. The color and contrast on the iPad is really amazing. The iPad’s one Achilles’ heel is that in direct sunlight you will see a ton of reflection on the screen, and the screen which is back lit get hard to see. This is most notice able when videos with dark scenes.
Eye strain
The has been a lot of discussion about whether or not the iPad causes eye strain. Based on my own experience and the experiences of others who have tried the iPad, this is really a hit or miss thing. I do not get any eye strain from using the iPad even after spending an hour reading an eBook. However, if you plan on making the iPad your next eBook reader, I would advise you to go test out an iPad at the Apple store first.
Media Consumption
Media consumption was supposed to be the one thing that the iPad excelled at, and it does.
iBooks: iBooks is Apple’s eReader that can be downloaded free on the iPad. It comes with a free sample of Winnie the Pooh. iBooks gives the readers a lot of options such as changing the text size or the brightness of the screen. iBooks does not have a huge selections of books yet, but it offers books in full color and the touch screen ui makes it fun to read.
Kindle: Amazon has made a dedicated app on for the iPad which always Amazon customers to access their eBooks or buy more from the Amazon store. The Kindle has about 340,000 more eBooks than Apple’s own iBooks. You can now watch videos that are embedded in the eBooks.
Comics: I think that comics where made to be viewed on a tablet like device. The beautiful display of the iPad combined with the interactive touch screen makes reading a comic on the iPad almost more enjoyable than holding a physical copy in your hands. Marvel and DC Comics both have dedicated apps for the iPad where you can buy new releases. Japanese manga are slowly making their way to the iPad for those of you who are fans of manga.
Magazines: So far the magazines that have been released on the iPad have enjoyed huge success. Big names such as Time Magazine, GQ, and Wired have all made dictated apps for the iPad where you can download the latest edition. The magazine companies are really excited about the opportunities the iPad brings and are still experimenting with how they should deliver their content to their subscribers. The eMagazines still have a way to go with things such as ui and pricing, but you can expect them to get better with time.
Newspapers: The iPad is an ideal product for reading the latest news in the morning at the breakfast table or on a train on your way to work. USA Today, BBC, The Wall Street Journal, Bloomberg, and many more have already made their content assessable on the iPad.
Video
The iPad is an excellent device for looking at video’s. There are many options of where you can get videos from. Off course you have iTunes which has a huge selection of videos that you can buy and upload to your iPad. With a paid subscription you can also access Netflix on your iPad and stream movies and shows. For you quick videos you can always head over to YouTube and watch movie trails or a funny clip.
Music
The way you access the music is a little different from the iPhone, but it is still simple and easy. Apple has simple merged its iPod functions into iPad. One of the strong points of the iPad is that you can create your playlist directly on the iPad without having to use iTunes.
Keyboard
The iPad keyboard is much bigger than the iPhone or iPod Touch virtual keyboards, and the extra room makes it a breeze to type on. Don’t expect to be able to bang out a 10 page paper (although I’ve heard that it has been done) but for quick typing the iPad will get the job done.
Gaming
The gaming on the iPad is not for extreme gamers, but more so for the casual one. In fact, I’ve heard of dozens of people who haven’t played games in years finding a couple that they really enjoy on the iPad. The iPad offers all of the classic board games such as chess and scrabble and you can even play multiplayer. Then there are games that were designed specifically for the iPad. These games are clever, challenging, addictive, and loads of fun. And did I mention cheap? Most games are free and none get more expensive then about $5.00.
