Holiday Cheer: Festive Salon Message Templates for Clients

The winter holidays are just around the corner, which means that it’s time to start planning your communication with clients. And yes, it is most definitely something you want to think about in advance! Once the holiday rush starts for good, you won’t have time to come up with SMS marketing strategies or to write enchanting, holiday-themed content. Let’s be real – winter holidays at hair and beauty salons, at least behind the scenes, are more like a war than a quiet afternoon at Santa’s house. And what does the highest-ranking general do in the heat of battle – they lead the campaign or take a break to smith weapons? Your tools need to be ready before the first fire. Now that your imagination is giving you some weird visions of Santa in camo, let’s get to the point and determine what message templates will come in handy during the winter holiday season in your beauty business.

How to make the most out of these templates?

A short reminder before we get down to business – launching your holiday SMS marketing campaigns (or any text message campaigns whatsoever!) will be much easier if you start using a digital system that does the hard work for you.

List Your Business

Informing about free slots – message templates 

December is the busiest month for hair and beauty salons – most probably your appointment book is simply teeming with planned visits, and booking requests keep coming your way. If some of the planned appointments get canceled, it’s best to let your regulars know – some lucky soul will be more than happy to take the slot! These message templates will also be useful if you weren’t able to fill your appointment book just yet and want to create a sense of urgency that will push your customers to make the decision. 

• Our elves helpers just let us know that we still have a few free slots available – if you want to get a little glow-up for the holidays, give us a call or book your appointment at [LINK]!

Holiday wishes to clients – message templates

Finally – you most probably want to send your clients holiday greetings and thank them for yet another year of supporting your business (even though some of them may not always be on the “nice” list!). Depending on your business style, you may go for holiday wishes that are more official, heartwarming, or funny.

• Dear [CLIENT’S NAME]. [BUSINESS NAME] wants to wish you beautiful, peaceful holidays and a New Year full of wonders. Thank you for your loyalty and support throughout the year! Best regards, the [BUSINESS NAME] team.  
• Dear [CLIENT’S NAME]! May the magic of the holidays fill your heart with hope, joy, and peace. We are so happy to have you as a client! We send you the warmest greetings and can’t wait to see you again in the new year. XOXO, the [BUSINESS NAME] team
• Oh, deer – the holiday season is here! There’s no snow-body like you; therefore, we want to wish you the happiest, most joyful holidays and an amazing new year. Thank you for yet another year, the [BUSINESS NAME] team.
