Based on the GDPR requirements laid out by the EU, it has been determined that the most viable, achievable solution to it is to go digital. But why? And how can one data regulation change the way you run your business in the foreseeable future? Because GDPR is such dense piece of legislation, we put together a more digestible piece of content (the original EU document is a brick high of paper). We invite you to take exactly 2 minutes and 34 seconds of your time to watch what we called “Salon GDPR Explained With Emojis”. From going digital with consultation forms to understanding what the legislation means for your salon, we aim to keep you informed and empowered. Feel free to pass the link around to your staff or any other fellow salon owner who could benefit from it!

Salon GDPR Explained With Emojis
Phorest Salon Software’s imminent release of the Digital Consultation Forms will take care of most of this. The client will fill out the form, and you will review their answers with them, after which the client will sign the form, and you will validate it in the system, with your staff pin.
