How can I evaluate product quality before placing a large order?
Request samples or small trial packs when available, test products in real service conditions, and use staff feedback to identify top performers before committing to larger purchases.
Do suppliers support dropshipping or direct-to-consumer fulfillment?
Some suppliers provide dropshipping or direct fulfillment services. If you plan to sell online, ask about available fulfillment options, integration support, and how returns are handled.
What safety or regulatory information should I check?
Ask for ingredient lists, safety data sheets (SDS), and any applicable compliance documentation. Follow local regulations for salon hygiene and product claims, and train staff on safe handling.
