1. What is salon space & wellness design?

The salon environment directly influences client physiological state^[1]. Lighting above 100 lux at the styling station prevents eye strain; colour temperature of 4000-5000K aids accurate colour matching; ambient noise below 70 dB protects both stylist hearing and client relaxation. Evidence from environmental psychology shows that biophilic design elements (plants, natural materials, daylight) reduce cortisol and increase perceived service quality^[2].
