hair stylist / Frisör
Hello, I would like to share my experience with the recent update of the hairdresser. It's still not balanced. With a customer capacity of 30, I need 18 hairdressers on a shift from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m. And there's no profit.
In addition, my interior design is at 0% rating. Why? I have 100% wallpaper and flooring. Always almost the most expensive. All necessary chairs ect. Plus trash cans, decorations, etc.
What's even more annoying is that customers don't use the waiting areas, but instead stand right next to the hairdresser's chair.
When I stand at the checkout myself, I would like to be able to zoom in so that I can see the entire store or be able to move around the room with the mouse button pressed without immediately agreeing on my work.

Still, keep it up, I'm really enjoying it!
PS Disco I will also try out later. Or can someone tell me whether the economics are there?

Hallo, ich möchte meine Erfahrung zum neuerlichen Update des Frisörs mitteilen. Es ist immer noch nicht ausbalanciert. Bei einer Kundenpapazität von 30 benötige ich 18 Frisöre bei einer Schicht von 8.00 Uhr bis 22.00 Uhr. Und komme auf keinen Gewinn dabei.
Dazu kommt, meine Inneneinrichtung ist bei 0% Bewertung. Warum? Ich habe 100% Tapeten und Fußböden. Immer das fast teuerste. Alle notwendigen Stühle ect. Dazu Mülleimer, Dekoration usw.
Was noch Störend ist, die Kunden nutzen nicht die Wartebereiche, sondern stellen sich direkt neben den Frisörstuhl.
Wenn ich mich selber an die Kasse stelle, möchte ich gerne so Zoomen können um den ganzen Laden einsehen zu können oder mit Maustaste gedrückt durch den Raum schieben zu können, ohne gleich meine Arbeit abzusprechen.

Dennoch weiter so, es macht mir total Spaß!
PS Disco werde ich später auch antesten. Oder kann mir jemand sagen ob die wirtschaftlichkeit da gegeben ist?

What build are you playing? For a 30 cap, you only need 9 hair stylists

For an 8 hour shift, but I'm open Monday to Saturday from 8 a.m. to 10 p.m., 2 shifts of 7 hours each, so 2x 9 employees /// Or are you only allowed to open for 8 hours?

Oh when you said 18 on a shift, I misunderstood. I see now.

You can be open whenever you like, although certain hours are more profitable than others depending on the business.

For the waiting room...more AI behaviors will be added over time! :)

But the interior score seems odd. If you hit f2 and submit the bug report, I can take a look. Just be sure to mention this thread, so I know it's yours!

With the interior score, have you waited a few days to have it updated? When I just add flooring and wallpapers etc, it does not immediately effect the interior score. It seems I have to wait for the next day to have it updated. Also it seems the next day I sometimes get a score of 86% (as if it seems to count how much hours the floors and wallpapers had been available the previous day and makes an average of that). With then on the 3rd day hitting 100%... Unless off course I forgot to tell my employees to wear the proper clothing for my shop :).

Correct - that score is your customer's opinion of the store. The instant you change it, you haven't gotten any customer feedback.

Ich hab jetzt ein kleineren Laden mit 15 Kundenkapazität genommen. Ich schreibe weiterhin nur Minus. Ich habe 4 Frisöre, 1 Reinigungskraft und 1 Kassierer. Nur eine Schicht von 12 Uhr - 20 Uhr. Ich habe einen Screen gemacht. https://ibb.co/pPcDxJg

I have now taken a smaller shop with a capacity of 15 customers. I continue to only write minuses. I have 4 hairdressers, 1 cleaner and 1 cashier. Only one shift from 12pm - 8pm. I took a screen. https://ibb.co/pPcDxJg

Marketing is 500€ or $

You limit your shop to 10 customers per hour, you need another hair shampoo station. For the rest I'll need some more information. traffic index, promotion and overall satisfaction looks fine from that screenshot.

Not even 10 customers came, there were a maximum of 5 customers there. If I add a hair shampoo now, I'll make another 200 more per day minus the salary. It's just not profitable to open a hairdresser. Best regards

I made improvements. Still only 5-7 customers an hour. I mess up almost every day. I have no loans to run. I only have to buy salaries and hair care products. You can't get into the game like that with a hairdresser. Gifts and flowers are much, much better.

You'll also want to make sure your employees are trained up. Low-skill employees can drive some customers away, but also keep in mind that 10 is your maximum right now - other factors could be reducing that number a bit.

My employees are all 90% or higher, except the cleaning staff. I corrected what I meant by that, which was that I now have 2 hair shampoo chairs and 3 hairdressing chairs. And yet, I'm just messing around.
Appollus Sep 9, 2023 @ 4:42pm 
Hair chemicals/color fee 60% demand
Hair styling 74% demand
Shampoo and blow dry 79% demand
Hair cutting 80% demand
Care product 86% demand

The hairdresser is in Midtown. Price satisfaction 100%.
I increased all prices by $20.
