What is worth knowing here

Disposables and hygiene are the least glamorous line in a salon and the one an inspector asks about first. They are also the clearest case for buying from whoever has them cheapest this month: a box of nitrile gloves is a commodity, the brand matters far less than the size and the thickness, and the difference between suppliers over a year of boxes is real money.

The pages cover gloves, wipes and cotton pads, couch roll and bed covers, spatulas and applicators, towels, disinfectants and protective masks. Two of them are not commodities. Disinfectants are regulated: a surface or instrument disinfectant used in a salon has to be approved for that use in your country, and the standards it is tested against, together with the contact time, are what decide whether it does the job. A product sold as a cleaner is not a disinfectant, and the supplier's own page is where the approvals and the dilution are stated.

Gloves are the other one worth a thought. Nitrile has replaced latex in most professional settings because of client allergy rather than cost, and powdered gloves are out of use in several markets for the same reason. Size matters more than it sounds: a glove that is slightly too large is the commonest reason a technician takes it off for fine work. Pack sizes, prices and delivery thresholds are the supplier's to state.

Questions we are asked

Does a disinfectant listed here meet the rules in my country?
That is stated by the supplier, who sells it into your market. We list what they stock; the approvals, the standards and the contact times are on their page.
Can I set up a repeat order?
In the supplier's own shop, if they offer one. Slotora does not place orders, so it cannot schedule them either.
Why is the pack size sometimes missing?
Because the supplier's feed did not state it. We do not calculate one, because a pack size we worked out is the sort of number that gets trusted and is wrong.

May we measure which pages actually help? “Accept all” also lets us measure our own adverts.

What exactly does this mean?

We'd like to use Google Analytics to see which pages help and which don't, and to remember which poster, flyer or message of ours — or which salon's recommendation — brought you here. Accept all also allows a Meta advertising pixel, so we can tell which of our own adverts brought a salon that signed up — and if you create an account, our server sends Meta your email address scrambled (hashed), never as readable text, with your IP address, your browser's details and Meta's own cookie ids — never your name — purely so it can recognise that the sign-up came from an advert. None of this runs on a salon's own booking page. Everything the service itself needs works either way. Cookie Policy
