What EliteTeQ gives back to your hair salon
Every part of EliteTeQ, described by what it does for a hair salon.
Pay only for the tubes that arrived
Supplier deliveries are recorded as they arrive, and a wrong shade or damaged box goes back off the supplier’s bill.
Reordering without overstocking →One bill for the colour and the shampoo
Service, retail products and tip go on one bill, and a returned product goes straight back into stock.
The sales reports worth running →Spilt or out-of-date colour on record
A dropped bottle or a tube past its date is written off with a reason, so stock and colour costs stay true.
Selling by expiry (FEFO) →The shade where it is booked
Move a shade or a developer from a quiet branch to the one with the colour booking, with both counts right.
Running several branches and stores →Stylists colour, you see the costs
Reception books and bills, stylists see their own clients, and only you change prices, approve voids and see every branch.
Fair rules that stop till fraud →Every service has a name and a time
Each stylist has a login, so every bill, discount and void is tied to a person and a time.
Catching shrinkage early →Roots due, client reminded
Send colour clients a WhatsApp reminder when they are due, and confirm supplier orders on the same app.
Know where every tube went
Received, used on a service, sold, transferred or written off: the full history of every shade.
Reading stock turnover →Colour costs in the books
Takings, colour purchases and expenses post to your accounts as they happen, branch by branch.
Accounting and ERP in one system →Commission without the argument
Each stylist’s details, commission and tips sit next to the services they did, for any period.
Staff, payroll and branches →Your business in your pocket, online or off
Check every branch from your phone, and keep billing when the network drops. Everything syncs when it returns.
Cloud vs traditional POS →Still running your hair salon on a diary and a colour book?

Hair salon POS software in Hong Kong
Built for Hong Kong businesses with Dollar (HK$) pricing, Octopus, FPS and wallet payments recorded against each sale, and fast checkout for dense, high-footfall streets and malls.
There is no VAT or sales tax to charge at the till, so the work is speed and accuracy: Octopus taps, FPS transfers and wallet payments all have to reconcile with stock. Rents are high and shops are small, which puts a premium on tight stock control.
A day in a hair salon on EliteTeQ
An illustrative day, not a customer story.
Before opening, you see whose roots are due this week and send a few WhatsApp reminders.
Grace applies a root colour. While it develops, a cut and blow-dry is booked into the gap in her diary.
The colour service is billed. The tube of 7.3 and the developer come off stock, and its product cost is on record.
Branch 2 has a colour booked in a shade it is out of. A transfer is sent from the main salon and confirmed on arrival.
7.3 Golden Blonde hits its low-stock level. You confirm the supplier order on WhatsApp.
Closing. Takings balance by cash, Octopus and card, with each stylist’s services and tips on record.
At home, you see what each colour service cost and earned, and which stylists brought clients back.
