Vish’s Color Bar App is stylist focused, making color mixing easier than ever
Efficiency is the key to making the most out of every day. The Vish Color Bar App, one part of Vish’s three-part ecosystem, was designed with stylists in mind and helps streamline daily tasks. It offers many features that will make your mixing experience easier, more intuitive, and improve the customer experience. The Color Bar App gives you the chance to focus on your creativity by automatically recording customer’s formulas, as well as giving you the tools to easily mix more color, access your customer’s color history, and mix the perfect developer, all while cutting back on color waste.
What Stylists Love About Vish
1. Mixing From History
Vish tracks every customer’s color history, recording the exact formulas measured out during each service. All formulas can be easily recalled through the Mix From History feature on the customer’s profile and replicated when they revisit the salon. Did you mix the perfect formula and want it to stand out for next time? You can ‘favorite’ a formula to save it under your customer’s Favorite Formula tab for easy access. Saving previously perfected formulas leads to consistent results, increased customer satisfaction, and greater rates of customer loyalty.
2. Developer Ratio Feature
The Developer Ratio feature makes the day-to-day for stylists much easier. Gone are the days of worrying about math and developer calculations. Vish will calculate the exact developer amounts you need based on the ratio you select while mixing, eliminating any errors. You can ensure a predictable hair color experience for your customer and a streamlined color bar experience for you.
3. Mix More Feature
Replicating a formula mid-appointment can be a challenge. You’re busy, you have a customer in the chair, and now you have to mix more color. Knowing the exact ingredients and amounts needed to complete your appointment can go a long way. Vish’s Mix More feature allows you to select how much more color you need, by weight or percentage, then calculates exact measurements based on your original formula. If you’re working with an assistant, they can also access this formulation, giving you confidence in the color they produce for you. This makes your application consistent, resulting in a more unified result and a happier customer.
4. Reweigh Feature
Salon sustainability and waste management are vital in the salon industry. You can do your part for the environment by cutting back on the amount of waste produced at the color bar. On average, 25-40% of hair color is wasted due to overmixing. Reweighing is a key part of how Vish reduces color waste. Salon owners and stylists alike realize the importance of reweighing color almost immediately.
“We create a culture of accountability, coaching, and emphasizing reweigh percentage. If stylists continue to reweigh, their lives become much easier.”—Nicholas DiGenova, owner and stylist, Craft + Theory
Salons have cut their waste by up to 80% by using the Reweigh feature. By reweighing any excess color (or lack thereof) Vish will know exactly how much to suggest during your customer’s next appointment. The new, refined formula is stored automatically in the app for future use, effectively eliminating future waste. You can look forward to more accurate formulas as you do your part in helping the environment.
5. Vish Front Desk
Vish communicates automatically to your salon’s front desk, capturing any service add-ons or changes, and all product used. By automatically updating the front desk, salons and stylists can capture 15% more revenue, so you can rest assured that all of your formulas mixed and services delivered are being charged for correctly and no service revenue is ever walking out the door.
