The new partnership allows Rosy Salon Software salons to eliminate waste, save money, and provide consistent color formulation.

Rosy Salon Software recently announced its partnership Vish--one of the salon industry's top color management systems.
Designed to streamline a salon’s operations, Rosy Salon Software includes features to manage client data, schedule appointments, and send automated confirmations and reminders. The cloud-based software also helps salon professionals process payments, run reports, and manage inventory through a robust point of sale system. And, with text and email marketing features, salons can keep their clients informed and engaged. Now, with the integration of Vish, Rosy users can better track their color usage and eliminate waste.
Suitable for salons of all sizes, Vish connects an intelligent Bluetooth scale from the salon’s color room to the front desk, capturing all services and product charges. Information is communicated to both the Vish Front Desk app for a smooth and seamless checkout and the Vish Dashboard for analysis. Vish also provides in-depth analytics on employee performance, color service profitability, and real-time inventory reporting. The system was designed to measure color accurately and uses data and analytics to set exact prices, decrease inventory purchases by 25-40%, and eliminate waste.
“We’re excited to launch and feature Vish integration with Rosy. This partnership will help Rosy salons eliminate waste, save money, and provide consistent color formulation,” said Rosy Salon Software President Jason Foodman. “It’s powerful technology designed to support the industry, give colorists an edge, and increase profits for salon owners.”
The Vish partnership with Rosy officially launched March 24, 2021, and is a valuable feature for those who wish to subscribe to the service.
