States that Top the Spend on Staycation Beauty Treatments

It’s clear from a glance at your Instagram feed that staycations are well underway across the United States, and though we may not be holidaying abroad this year, salons around the country can expect the same level of preparation going into a dip in a country lake as they would a pool in Cancun, according to data from Phorest Salon Software.

Phorest--one of the most innovative software systems used by U.S. salons to manage their businesses--looked into the summer-prep behavior of salon-goers across the U.S. They found that people from Connecticut spend the most prepping for their holidays, spending an average of $166 at their hair or beauty salons in the summer months, which is 78% above the national average of $93.

New York followed behind, spending $147 (59% above the national average); followed closely by Alaska, spending $143.21. Below is the breakdown of the 20 states spending above the national average on holiday prep.

Ronan Perceval, CEO, Phorest Salon Software, commented: “Despite the fact we can’t jet away this year, it’s fantastic to see us making the most of the beautiful holiday destinations across the US, and of course turning to our local salons to look our best for the Insta snaps.”
