Naturals Salons, one of India’s leading salon chains with over 740 outlets, and SkinQ, a renowned dermatologist-formulated skincare and haircare brand, have come together with a groundbreaking partnership to redefine beauty services across India with Beauty 2.0.
The collaboration between Naturals Salons and SkinQ is a significant step in beauty and skincare. The partnership aims to take beauty services one notch higher from cosmetic treatments to the field of medical beauty. Under this partnership, SkinQ’s dermatologist-formulated products for skin and hair treatments will be integrated into Naturals Salons.
This innovative move includes the upskilling of Naturals’ personnel, thereby transforming beauty stylists into aestheticians. This will be carefully done through the highest level of training and skilling.
SkinQ is led by celebrity dermatologist Dr. Chytra Anand. It is India’s first Made Safe Certified skincare brand. On the other hand, Naturals Salon introduced the concept of the professional salon category more than 23 years ago.
The Collaboration between Naturals Salons and SkinQ
A key facet of this collaboration involves SkinQ providing extensive training to Naturals Salons’ aestheticians. This training program focuses on enhancing aestheticians’ knowledge. It shall cover various Indian skin types, common concerns, and methods for the identification of skin conditions. The training also includes hands-on practical sessions and in-depth knowledge about products. The ethos will ensure delivery of the quality service to every customer.
Beyond being a business partnership, this collaboration is also an effort to transform the beauty sector in India. By combining the clinically proven products from SkinQ with the expertise of Naturals Salons’ aestheticians, the partnership aims to offer advanced skincare solutions. The introduction of specialised Medi-facial treatments, pioneered by SkinQ, highlights the commitment to raising the standards of beauty services in India. It further puts emphasis on bringing the concept of Medical Beauty to the fore.
