What Might The Future Hold For YOU?
Dear friends and colleagues, I want to address this open letter to all hair & beauty salon owners, self employed astrologers, psychics, tarot readers & metaphysical festival organisers.
Town centres across the UK are changing, and not for the better. Once-busy high streets are becoming ghost towns. Independent shops are closing their doors, commercial units sit empty, and boarded-up windows invite vandalism and loitering. The decline is visible, and it is accelerating. If small business owners are going to survive, they must think differently. They must innovate. They must find new ways to attract customers and generate income. And I believe the answer may come from an unexpected direction.
Sixty years ago, during the Swinging Sixties, sunbeds were almost unheard of in Ladies Hair & Beauty Salons. Yet within a few decades they became standard fixtures. Why? Because clever salon owners recognised a rising trend and seized the opportunity. They transformed unused corners of their salons into profitable tanning spaces and created a new revenue stream simply by listening to what their clients wanted. Market-led innovation works.
Today, in the Twenty-Twenties, the cycle is turning again. Sunbeds and nail bars are no longer exciting; they’re commonplace, predictable, and in some cases declining. Customers are seeking experiences, not just services. They want something personal, meaningful, and emotionally engaging.
This is where the next wave of forward-thinking salon owners will shine.
I predict a growing trend: salon owners will remove outdated sunbeds and repurpose that space into small, discreet consulting rooms. These rooms will be rented to an exclusive rota of professional Tarot Readers, Astrologers, Psychics, and Spiritual Mediums all vetted and organised by reputable festival coordinators. The arrangement is simple, elegant, and mutually beneficial.
Salon owners gain:
A new income stream from renting the consulting room
Free word-of-mouth publicity as clients share their positive experiences
Increased footfall from people visiting the readers
A fresh, modern point of difference from competing salons
Professional metaphysical readers gain:
A safe, secure, reputable venue to meet clients
Access to salon footfall and new potential customers
Affordable consulting space without long-term leases
Festival organisers gain:
A wider network of venues
More visibility for their practitioners
Minimal overheads while expanding their brand
Everyone wins.
The salon becomes a hub of beauty, wellbeing, and spiritual insight: a modern hybrid space that reflects the evolving interests of today’s clients. The times are changing again. And the salons that adapt first will be the ones that thrive.
Well what do you think? The planets point to radical changes and new starts. Please consider my prediction. It could be just what your business needs to thrive and prosper long term.
Yours sincerely,
Guy Doleman: Astrologer
