How Hairdressing Salons Handle Their Laundry – and How Tumbly Can Help
Every day, hairdressers use towels and capes for each client. These textiles need to be washed regularly to maintain hygiene and a professional impression. But how much laundry does a salon actually generate – and what does it cost?
A hairdresser typically serves an average of 5 clients per day. Each client requires:
That's 190 grams per client, or 950 grams per day for one hairdresser.
Over a 5-day working week, that amounts to 4.75 kg of laundry per week – just for one hairdresser.
The laundry adds up quickly when more staff are involved:
| Number of hairdressers | Laundry per week | Standard (90 kr/kg) | Grand plan (67.5 kr/kg) |
|---|---|---|---|
| 1 hairdresser | 4.75 kg | 428 kr | 321 kr |
| 2 hairdressers | 9.5 kg | 855 kr | 641 kr |
| 3 hairdressers | 14.25 kg | 1 283 kr | 962 kr |
| 4 hairdressers | 19 kg | 1 710 kr | 1 283 kr |
