Red Instagram Marketing

Red is warm and depicts strong emotions. Using red in your Instagram Marketing imagery may indicate promotions, sales and speed. If you are marketing relaxing beauty treatments and a tranquil environment, then it is best to move away from red unless absolutely necessary.

Blue

Blue is known to trigger feelings of trust, professionalism, and reliability in clients. If these elements are the key things you are trying to communicate then blue imagery across your Instagram is the best way to do it. Unlike red, blue is ideal for tranquil branding. An overload of blue may evoke clinical and cold feelings however, so don’t overdo it. Aim for a healthy balance.

Yellow Instagram Marketing

Yellow will bring joyful, happy and positive vibes to your Instagram feed. According to Harvard Business Review research yellow posts are also most likely to go viral because of the emotions that are evoked. Think about summer and sunshine. Your clients will feel hopeful and optimistic.

Green

Green is the best colour when your brand is organic, vegan, and good for the planet. It signifies balance, peace, growth and renewal. It tends to blend in so if you want to stand out, don’t use too much. Weigh up the pros and cons of using green to promote your treatments before splashing your Instagram with too much of it.

Pink Instagram Marketing

Pink is one of the most popular colours for salon Instagram posts. It promotes love, nurturing, gentleness and femininity – perfect for beauty treatments. When offering treatments that are relevant for everyone you may want to step away from a pink overload.

Black

Associated with luxury, power and glamour, black is the go-to colour for sophistication. If you are promoting luxury facials and high quality treatments, try black to make a bold statement. Black and white pictures can stand out on Instagram as long as you include splashes of colour.

Client Testimonial: “Jodie is extremely professional and knowledgeable throughout the IPL treatment sessions. She explains the process and what to expect so that you are put at ease from the first consultation. During my IPL sessions, Jodie marked up the areas and avoided any moles or damaged skin, then preps using the cooler handle before a light shot. The light shot itself really doesn’t hurt, it’s done in seconds. The fact the skin is cooled first makes this an easy process to tolerate. I genuinely didn’t feel in pain at all and Jodie applied a lovely aloe balm to soothe the skin straight away. If anything I felt my appointments were more of a therapy as I knew I would be hair free come my holiday. After each session I came away feeling the progress getting better and better and by week 5 there was hardly any hair growth. I didn’t feel the need to shave anymore. I felt more confident and there is much less maintenance at home now which means I have more time for other things. I would highly recommend IPL hair removal by SkinBase and with Jodie as she made me feel at ease from the moment I asked about it and the difference it makes is life changing for someone who wasn’t so confident in her skin. I can’t wait for Summer and my holiday. Thanks Jodie & SkinBase.”
