Multi-Link QR Codes for Beauty Salons
QR codes for hair and beauty salons enable companies to share social media accounts, stylist contact information, and image galleries to showcase their work.
Benefits of Multi-Link QR Codes for Salons
The benefits of using QR codes for hair stylists, beauty salons, nail technicians, makeup artists, masseuses, etc., vary from one profession and use case to another. We’ll show you some ways they help everyone, especially your current and prospective clients.
vCard QR Codes are another multi-link option
vCard QR Codes download contact information directly into the person’s contact fields in their smartphone, eliminating typos and adding your social media handles right into their contacts section, so they can follow if they want to, without scrolling through hundreds of similar names or competitors.
QR codes mitigate phone calls if you add online booking calendars
If you choose to add an online booking calendar with a disclaimer about changes and cancellations, you can add your Calendly or whatever link to your QR code for multiple links. Every stylist has their preference on how to manage their time, so if adding a calendar doesn’t work for you, that’s okay too.
Track QR codes with multiple links
You can track clicks per link in a Multi-Link QR Code. In addition to tracking the number of scans, location, and time, you can track how many clicks you’re getting per link to see what generates the most interest. This allows you to modify campaigns based on consumer behavior. It also raises a red flag if people are not following your content after they click on the link. Those analytics, however, would have to be done from your external sites.
Dynamic QR codes are editable without reprints
Dynamic QR codes are editable, so when you want to add or change links or contact information, you can edit it on the backend in your account dashboard without reprinting the code. People who scanned in the past won’t receive new information. Only people who scan again or after the edits.
Multi-Link QR Codes give clients the option to choose
If clients follow Instagram but not TikTok, etc., having a Multi-Link QR Code allows them to follow what they are interested in without having to search for you online or guess which platforms you use. This enables you to foster brand exposure.
How to Create QR Codes for Beauty Salons
Now, we’ll tell you how to generate a Multi-Link QR Code for salons that maximizes attention and boosts your revenue:
Go to Trueqrcode QR code generator and choose the Multi-Link QR Code option.
Add the QR code landing page header, description, and main image
Add multiple URLs with interesting titles, such as “Book your next appointment”
Add an image of something relevant to each one, like a new nail style or the latest hair trend
Add social network links next to their corresponding logos already provided in the platform
Click the design tab, and add branded colors to the QR code landing page
The tools are easy to play with and fun to use. You can even take the HEX code (i.e.: #D1D5DB) from your salon’s website and add it to your landing page, or to your QR code.
Click the next button and now customize the QR code with branded, contrasted (so it scans), or holiday colors
You can create shapes and frames that are appealing to the eye and that maintain consistency across your marketing channels and materials. Keep in mind what it will be printed on so that it matches well.
Download the QR code and do a test scan
This is not optional. Test every link to make sure they are accurate. Then test them on one printed material before making multiple prints.

Tips for Making QR Codes for Beauty Salons
Here are some effective tips that empower you to get the most out of using QR codes for all types of salons.
Customize QR code designs with your logo
QR codes with logos are proven to perform better based on analytics. They spark interest, brand awareness, and recognition. They also boost consumer trust compared to unbranded, black and white mystery codes. Your QR code design should reflect your branding, creative personal style, and match well with other materials for brand consistency.
Check your QR code analytics
Successful QR code marketing campaigns need to be modified based on consumer behavior, or you’re not maximizing the use and power of your QR code. You have to check the analytics to be sure that everything is working properly and that people are responding. You couldn’t do this with traditional paper marketing.
Do a test scan and click on links before launching
Never launch a code you didn’t test once before printing, and once after. Colors need to be contrasted in order to scan and make sure that the size is appropriate for the area it’s printed on, and there’s some space around the code. Don’t print 1000 business cards and then realize the code doesn’t scan. Print one test first.
Secondly, make sure all your links are right. Just because you can edit errors later doesn’t mean you should launch codes with wrong URLs. Customers lose attention easily and won’t try hard to find you later on.
Provide a clear call to action
Inspire people to scan. Add a clear call to action like, “Scan to follow us on social media, see our price list, and access our booking calendar.”
Print in a convenient location
QR code printing is just as important for your campaigns as making the QR code. It has to be seen, be eye-catching, and printed in areas that get a lot of foot traffic. You can print QR codes in public places, you can make a business card QR code, place them on displays in your salon, etc. Make sure the distance and placement are easy to get to for scanning.

Contact supportHow can you use QR codes for hair and beauty salons?
You can use them for salon and artist contact information, social media accounts, portfolios, price lists, seasonal promotions, review pages, and more.
Are QR codes free to create?
We don’t recommend free QR code generators because of scan limits, unsightly ads, codes expiring, and other things they don’t tell you about when you sign up. Someone might take over the QR code, add a new URL later, and ruin your reputation.
Can QR codes help increase bookings?
It’s more likely when people see samples of your work on platforms like Instagram, and have calendar booking page access for clients, that people will want to work with you.
Where should I print QR codes in my salon?
Salons should print QR codes on table tents on the front desk, on artists’ business cards, and on posters at community events.
Can I track my salon’s QR codes?
Yes, dynamic QR codes offer trackability. The number of scans, location, and time are all available in your Trueqrcode dashboard in real time.
