SalonScales training mode feature is a perfect way to learn your way around the SalonScale app without worrying about changing your client's sessions, and formulas or affecting your salon's inventory counts and reports. We suggest using water or weights in place of color for training purposes while you’re getting familiar with the app.
Starting a training session
To begin, start a session in your app by selecting the "+" button found in the bottom right-hand corner of your home screen.
A screen will appear asking what type of session you’d like to start, select Training Session.
3. Select your stylist.
4. Select a client.
5. To mix Color, select "add bowl"
6. Choose your bowl type (ex. Toner.)
7. Select which products you will be mixing by either:
using the search bar found at the top of the screen to search through your products or scroll down to find what you’re looking for.
8. As mentioned earlier we recommend using water to measure when using training mode. Once you have your products selected you can either begin weighing with the scale or manually with the keyboard function on the app.
9. Once your bowl is weighed you can select complete session where you will be taken to this screen indicating that your training session is finished.
Note: Any formulas you create in training mode will not be under your client's history for reuse.
Once you feel comfortable using SalonScale on a client with real hair color, you can tap Regular session and mix your color as you normally would but using SalonScale to track your formula.
If you no longer want the option for Training sessions. Tap Account in the bottom right corner, General Settings, and then flip the Training Sessions switch off.
