A direct answer for salon owners

What Is Salon Inventory Management Software?

Salon inventory management software tracks products from delivery through use or sale. Salon Manager connects retail and professional stock, suppliers, low-stock alerts and reporting. The result is a clearer stock position without depending on paper counts, memory or separate spreadsheets.

The product, provider and connected workflow

How Salon Manager Connects Stock to Sales and Purchasing

Salon Manager is the salon management platform supplied by Salon Software Solutions Limited. Its inventory tools connect the product catalogue, stock movement, suppliers and reporting. Retail sales can stay connected to salon POS and payments, while stock performance can support wider salon reporting and analytics.

What it connects

Products, Sales and Suppliers

Product details, stock movement, supplier information and retail performance remain part of one inventory workflow.

Who supplies it

Salon Software Solutions Limited

The company is active at Companies House under number 08930241. It was incorporated in 2014.

What it tracks

Retail and Professional Stock

Track products sold to clients and items used by the team, with movement recorded against the same catalogue.

How to judge it

Trace One Product End to End

Follow one product from delivery to use, sale, low-stock alert and the next purchasing decision.

A useful buying test: choose one high-value product and trace every handoff. The system should explain what arrived, what moved and who supplied it. It should also show why the next order is needed.

Everything behind better stock decisions

Keep Every Product Accountable From Delivery to Use or Sale

Keep product setup, stock movement, suppliers, reordering and reporting connected. Each stage should explain what changed, why it changed and what needs attention next.

See the true stock position

Keep Stock Levels Visible as Products Move

Track retail and professional products as they are received, used and sold. The team sees a more current position without rebuilding the figures in a spreadsheet.

Act before an essential item runs out

Act Before Low Stock Disrupts a Service or Sale

Use low-stock alerts to identify essential items that need attention. This gives the team more time to reorder before availability affects a treatment or retail sale.

One source of truth for every product

Keep Products, Prices and Suppliers Together

Manage product categories, pricing, supplier details and retail visibility from one connected catalogue.

Stop tying cash up in the wrong stock

See What Moves, What Sits and What Ties Up Cash

Review product usage and sales trends to see what moves and what remains on the shelf. Use that evidence to make the next order more precise.

Make reordering faster and more organised

Move From Low Stock to the Right Supplier Faster

Keep supplier details beside the products they provide. The team can move from an alert to the right ordering information with fewer manual lookups.

Turn stock data into stronger retail decisions

Give the Best Products More Space and Attention

Review sales, stock movement and retail performance. Identify strong sellers, slow movers and opportunities to buy with greater confidence.

One connected route from setup to sale

Follow One Product From Delivery to Use, Sale and Reorder

Connect product setup, stock movement, supplier information and performance reporting. Every stage should leave a clear record for the next decision.

Step 1

Create one reliable product catalogue

Add categories, pricing, supplier details and whether each item is intended for retail or professional use.

Step 2

See stock move as it is received, used and sold

Keep stock levels updated as products arrive, are used in services or are sold to clients.

Step 3

Reorder before the gap appears

Use alerts and connected supplier information to restock essential items with less delay and guesswork.

Step 4

Use performance to improve the next order

Identify best sellers, slow-moving stock and opportunities to buy more accurately next time.

Original buying guidance

The Five-Minute Salon Stock Control Test

Use one real product and a simple movement. Check whether delivery, use or sale, low stock, supplier information and the final count remain connected.

Step 1

Choose a Real Product

Use an item the business buys regularly. Confirm its category, price, supplier and whether it is retail or professional stock.

Step 2

Receive a Small Delivery

Add a realistic quantity and confirm the recorded stock level changes by the same amount.

Step 3

Use or Sell One Unit

Record one realistic movement. Check that the new stock position and related sale or usage remain easy to trace.

Step 4

Test the Low-Stock Route

Set a sensible threshold. Confirm the alert leads the team to the correct product and supplier information.

Step 5

Compare the Screen With the Shelf

Count the physical units. Confirm any difference can be investigated and recorded without losing the audit trail.

Protect Cash by Buying More Precisely

Independent context for stock records

Clear Stock Records Support Better Decisions and Better Accounts

Government guidance reinforces the value of accurate transaction and stock records. These sources provide wider business context. They do not mean software alone guarantees accounting, tax or legal compliance.

Accurate Business Transactions

GOV.UK says business records should be accurate and make individual transactions identifiable. It lists receipts for goods and stock among the evidence a business may keep.

Read the GOV.UK record guidance

Stocktaking Records for Companies

Companies House guidance says companies dealing in goods must keep year-end stock statements. They must also keep the stocktaking records used to prepare them.
