For hair salons, barbers and beauty studios
Salon video ads that fill Tuesday too
adkix turns your hair or beauty salon's website or Instagram account into a vertical video ad that tells a story: script, voice-over, music, captions and shots generated in your colours, with no avatar and no shoot, in about 20 minutes. Use it to announce a free slot, a treatment or a weekday offer. The haircuts on screen are generated, not your work.
Saturday is full, Tuesday is empty
In many salons the diary has the same shape: Saturday fills itself, the end of the week too, and Tuesday morning leaves chairs empty. Those are paid hours, and nobody books them because nobody knows they're there.
Instagram should help with that. But between two clients you don't have time to film, edit and write a caption that makes people book. The account shows lovely colour photos, and nothing that says 'still room on Wednesday'.
Your clients live a few streets away. A video about a real moment in their week, the lunch break, the school run, the evening after work, has a better chance of getting a booking than one more photo.
How adkix makes your salon's video from your website or Instagram
Give your website or handle
adkix reads your services, your atmosphere, your colours and your logo. If all you have is a booking-site profile, a one-line idea will do.
Pick the angle
The AI suggests a few stories: a lunch break at your salon, a treatment to give as a gift, the new balayage. Keep the one that answers the gap in your diary.
Approve the style and the script
Nothing is produced until you've read the script and chosen the art direction. A treatment name, an opening day: fix it first.

About 20 minutes later you get a 9:16 video of 15 s, 30 s or 1 min, with voice-over, music and word-by-word titles. One scene is off? Redo just that one.
Five video ad ideas for a hair or beauty salon
| Angle | Length | Platform |
|---|---|---|
| Tuesday lunch break: a cut or a treatment in an hour, two streets from the office | 15 to 30 s | Instagram Reels, Stories |
| The treatment or gift card to give before a holiday | 30 s | Instagram, Facebook |
| A new service, such as colour, beard or facial, and what it changes for the client | 30 s | Instagram Reels, TikTok |
| Your salon's story: why you opened here | 1 min | Instagram, TikTok |
| The evening or early Saturday slot for people who work | 15 s | Instagram Stories, YouTube Shorts |
One idea per video, with the day or the slot written on screen.
What works on Instagram and TikTok for a salon
People pick a salon close to home. Talk about the neighbourhood, the street, the hour that suits them: a video that sounds local stands apart from big chains and beauty influencer accounts.
Be straight with your clients. adkix generates the shots for your brand: the cut or colour on screen wasn't done by you. Don't present it as your work. Your portfolio, your real before/afters, clients who agree to be filmed: your phone shows those.
The two fit well together. The adkix video carries the week's message, the slot, the offer, the story. Your photos show your skill. Together they give a reason to book and proof that you can deliver.
Example: a salon that wants to fill Tuesday mornings
Made-up example to illustrate, not a client. A two-chair hair salon on a high street has a full Saturday and an empty Tuesday morning. The owner pastes her Instagram handle, picks the angle 'Tuesday, just for you' and a soft style in the colours of her shop front.
The 15-second video goes out as a Story and a Reel on Monday evening. The script, in three lines:
- Sophie takes one morning off a month.
- No queue, no noise, a coffee and an hour to herself.
- On Tuesday mornings the salon is quiet. Book yours.

Frequently asked questions
Does the video show my actual haircuts?
No. Shots are generated in your colours; they are not your work. To show what you do, keep your own photos and videos taken at the salon.
I only have an Instagram account. Does it work?
Yes. Give your handle instead of a website address, and adkix reads your services and your visual style from it.
Can I make a video for a barber shop or a beauty studio?
Yes. adkix reads what you offer and adapts the angles: beards, nails, facials, waxing. The style matches your atmosphere.
Can the video show my quiet day?
Yes. You approve the script and titles before production. Write the day and the time slot; that's what gets bookings.
Will it fill my diary?
Nobody can promise that. The video helps you say clearly, every week, where there's still room; your welcome and your work bring people back.
