Dialogue

🦉 & 🐥 & 🐮 — Salon operator dialogue

🐥
Piyo: Poppo, does salon lighting really affect client wellbeing?
🦉
Poppo: Research in environmental psychology shows that lighting colour temperature and intensity directly affect cortisol and serotonin levels. 500+ lux at the station for colour accuracy, 2,700K warm tone in the waiting area for relaxation. Most salons over-light the waiting area and under-light the station — exactly backwards.
🐥
Piyo: What about noise?
🦉
Poppo: Sustained exposure above 70dB damages hearing over time — and a busy salon with hairdryers, music, and conversation easily exceeds that. Sound-absorbing panels, dryer noise ratings, and background music volume control are occupational health measures disguised as design choices.
🐮
Mou: Strong, kind, beautiful — a wellness-designed salon is one where both client and stylist leave feeling better.
