Video ads for salons, spas, barbers and nail and lash studios

The problem with salon marketing on a full schedule

Your best marketing is your work, but filming and editing it between clients rarely happens. Stories disappear in a day, the slow weeks sneak up on you, and new services launch with a single photo.

A salon video ad gives you something better to post: a finished vertical video with a hook, captions, music and a clear way to book. Run it as an ad, pin it to your profile or send it to your client list.

We make salon video ads for every kind of chair and table:

• Hair salons and colorists showing cuts, color and styling.
• Barbershops promoting fades, beard trims and walk-in hours.
• Day spas and massage studios selling gift cards and packages.
• Nail and lash studios launching new sets, seasonal designs and fills.

Every video comes in vertical 9:16 for Reels, Stories and TikTok, with captions for people watching on mute.

Keep beauty ad claims honest

Show your real work, and keep the words about the service, the experience and the booking. Avoid promising results like "erases wrinkles" or "regrows hair", and don't present a presenter as a real client. Videos with realistic people are labeled as dramatizations.

Ad claims must be truthful and backed up. The FTC's advertising guidance is the place to check, and our guide to beauty ad claims rules explains it in plain language. If you also sell retail products, beauty product video ideas has more.

DIY salon video ads vs a flat price

Doing it yourself usually means a video generator app, a voice app, an editing app, a stock music library and a caption app. Published plans for each kind of tool commonly run from about $6 to $40 a month. One example stack of five monthly plans we priced in October 2026 came to about $116 a month, or about $1,392 a year, before extra credits. That's before the hours after your last client spent learning the apps. See why video app subscriptions add up for the full picture.

A flat price is easier to plan around: $99 for a Text ad, $299 for a Product showcase video of your work, music, captions and one revision included. See all of it on the video ad pricing page.
