Baroque: a style that’s all the rage

The Baroque style (derived from ‘barroco’, a term referring to an irregularly shaped stone) is not limited to the Italian artistic movement of the 16th and 17th centuries; it is, in fact, a style that extends to all areas, including interior design.

And for just over a decade now, this style has been making its way into our homes, as well as into hairdressing salons.

But what exactly does it involve? A blend of classical elegance and extravagance, the Baroque style plays on contrasts in shapes, materials and colours, and has a penchant for details and decorative objects, even if this sometimes means going a bit over the top.

The Baroque style might, for example, feature a burgundy velvet tufted sofa and classic black faux-leather armchairs in a room dominated by a large chandelier with tassels and a grand gilded mirror.

The Baroque style is becoming increasingly popular in hairdressing salons, evident in both the décor and the choice of hairdressing furniture.

How to successfully design your Baroque-style hairdressing salon

Resolutely chic and on-trend, the Baroque style nevertheless requires a certain degree of restraint to maintain balance and refinement.

This is all the more true for a hairdressing salon, where the setting must remain fairly uncluttered to inspire relaxation and a sense of well-being.

Our first piece of advice is therefore this: avoid at all costs cluttering the space with too many decorative items, as this risks creating a cramped impression that could work against you.

Instead, stick to a few carefully chosen items, which you should position in such a way as to really show them off to their best advantage.

But first and foremost, let’s start with the layout!

A baroque-style hairdressing salon allows for a few eccentric touches: a warm, deep colour on the walls in the form of elegant wallpaper, for example, or a mix of materials. Don’t hesitate to combine wood, metal and plastic – the result will be all the more elegant for it.

Do, however, try to stick to a limited number of colours (three, for example) for the décor and furnishings, so that the overall look remains cohesive, with a clear guiding theme. For example, you could choose a bright or deep colour (burgundy, mauve, purple, blue, yellow…), which you can pair with black and white for a look that’s both refined and warm.

Choosing the furniture: an important step

Let’s now move on to choosing your baroque-style hairdressing furniture! This is crucial, as it will give your salon its unique character. Mysalondecoiffure offers a range of baroque-style items in its online shop, which you can combine with one another, or mix with a few more understated and classic pieces.

For example, for the reception area, you could opt for a padded waiting bench (available in 18 colours) – the SOFT 2S or SOFT 3S – with or without a SOFT 1S footstool.

The centrepiece of your hair salon, the BAROCCO hairdressing chair boasts a refined, classic style with black faux leather upholstery, a padded backrest and seat, and metal armrests. A distinctive Baroque blend that will add a touch of glamour to your premises!

Finally, for the shampoo basin, you could opt for an elegant, modern model such as the DELTA 2-seater, or choose the SMILE or ATLANTIC + DECO for a reception desk with just the right amount of Baroque flair to avoid going over the top.

We’ll finish with some finishing touches: large gilded mirrors to make the space feel bigger, a beaded chandelier to add the perfect touch of glamour, a black plastic vase on a white shelf – or vice versa… Let your imagination run wild and choose objects or light fittings with real character.

In any case, you can count on Mysalondecoiffure to offer you high-end furniture made in Italy at competitive prices. Don’t hesitate any longer! All our products come with a 3-year guarantee and are delivered free of charge with no minimum purchase required.
