Can the video use before-and-after photos from my salon website?

Yes. If both images are visible and accessible on the page, the browser can capture them and place them into a transformation sequence. Clearly labelled pairs work best. A slider, embedded social gallery or image revealed only after several interactions may prevent one side of the comparison from being captured.

Can I make a video for one stylist’s portfolio?

Yes. A stylist profile page can supply real screenshots of that stylist’s cuts, colour work, blow-dries or texture specialisms. The first video follows what the site provides. For later videos, a prompt can ask the edit to focus on one stylist, service or type of finished result.

Will the video match my salon’s branding?

Sizzledraft authors the scene from brand tokens found on the salon website, including its colours and type styles, then renders the video frame by frame. The result also uses real page captures, so portfolio images, service wording and booking details come from the source rather than a generic salon template.

Can I use a trending sound with the salon ad?

Yes, but the sound is provided as a link to attach natively when you publish the video. It is not baked into the file because that would not count as using the trending sound on the posting platform. The exported video’s own audio is normalised to -14 LUFS.

How do I turn my hair salon website into a video ad?

Enter the salon URL and Sizzledraft drives a browser through the page, captures real screenshots and builds scenes from the site’s colours, type and imagery. For a salon, that can mean opening with a finished balayage, moving through the matching before photo, naming the service and ending on the booking action shown on the site. Stylist profile pages can become portfolio-led ads that group cuts, colour work or textured-hair results around one clear appointment type. The first video is cut from the website alone, so the source page should contain the work you want featured. Later videos accept a prompt, which can direct attention to a specific stylist, treatment, hair texture or seasonal service without replacing the salon’s real portfolio.

What should a hair salon video ad show first?

Show the strongest finished result or the clearest before-and-after contrast in the first three seconds. A client deciding on highlights, a fringe or a major restyle wants to judge the outcome before reading about the process. Use one transformation at a time, identify the relevant service in plain language and keep the stylist’s work large enough to inspect. If the salon serves several needs, make separate videos for blonding, vivid colour, curls, extensions or short cuts instead of squeezing every service into one edit. End with the booking route already present on the website, such as an online booking button or consultation page. This keeps the ad focused on a real result and a relevant next step.

Which video format works for a salon portfolio ad?

Use vertical 1080x1920 for placements where clients browse on a phone, especially when a portrait before-and-after can fill the frame. Use horizontal 1920x1080 when the salon needs a wider website, display or presentation format. Videos render at 30fps in H.264, and audio is normalised to -14 LUFS. If a trending sound matters to the placement, it is handed over as a link so the salon can attach it natively when posting. It is not baked into the exported file because baked-in audio does not count as using that sound on the platform. Choose images with consistent angles and lighting where possible, since clients need to compare the starting hair, shape, colour and finished styling without guessing what changed.

What the browser actually gets

The browser can capture visible before-and-after galleries, stylist profile pages, service descriptions, booking buttons, logos, colours and type styles from a salon website. It may struggle with galleries that load only after repeated interaction, images hidden behind sign-in screens, embedded social feeds or before-and-after sliders whose second image never appears without dragging.

The common mistake

A common mistake is packing unrelated blonding, barbering, bridal and extension work into one salon ad. Fix it by choosing one appointment type, leading with its strongest finished result and using only portfolio images that support that booking decision.

Before-and-after photos often sit in separate gallery pages, making it hard to shape them into one clear transformation story.
Stylist portfolios cover different cuts, colours and textures, so choosing work that attracts the right appointment takes time.
Service names, booking details and finished looks must fit into a short ad without making the video feel like a price list.
