Which salon page should I use for a before-and-after ad?

Use a public page where the starting hair and finished result appear together or in a clearly labelled sequence. A dedicated balayage, colour correction, extensions or restyle gallery is usually more useful than the salon homepage. Avoid pages where the images only appear after login or where unrelated transformations are mixed without service or stylist labels.

Can the ad focus on one stylist's portfolio?

Yes. Submit the stylist's public profile or portfolio page if it contains their cuts, colours or extension work. The first video uses what that page provides. For later videos, a prompt can request a tighter focus, such as short cuts by that stylist, provided the screenshots and page copy support that description.

What format will my salon TikTok video use?

The salon ad is rendered vertically at 1080x1920, at 30fps, and exported as H.264 video. That layout suits full-height before-and-after reveals and stacked stylist portfolio images. Audio is normalised to -14 LUFS, while a selected trending sound should be attached natively in TikTok using the supplied link.

How much does it cost to make salon video ads?

Two salon videos cost $19. The monthly option costs $39 for eight videos. Use the first cut to test how the website's before-and-after images, stylist work and booking details translate into a TikTok ad, then use prompts on later videos to focus on particular services or portfolio themes.

Turn salon results into vertical TikTok ads

Sizzledraft turns a hair salon website into a short 1080x1920 TikTok ad using real screenshots, before-and-after results and stylist portfolio work from the page. The first video is cut from the site alone, while later salon videos can follow a prompt for a service, stylist or transformation.

How do I turn my salon website into a TikTok ad?

Submit the public URL for the salon page that best shows the result you want to advertise. A balayage gallery, extension service page or individual stylist portfolio gives the browser more useful material than a general homepage. Sizzledraft drives a headless browser through the page, captures real screenshots and uses the salon's own colours, type and visual details to author the scene. It then renders the ad frame by frame in a 1080x1920 vertical layout at 30fps and exports H.264 video. The first salon video is cut from the website alone. For later videos, add a prompt such as “focus on copper transformations by Maya” or “lead with the extension before-and-after” to guide the edit.

What should a hair salon TikTok ad show first?

Open with the clearest change: the grown-out roots, uneven colour, short starting length or flat shape that makes the final salon result meaningful. Show the finished balayage, extensions or cut quickly, then support it with close-ups from the same transformation or related work by that stylist. A salon logo is useful, but it should not delay the hair reveal. Include the service name and stylist only when the website confirms them, and finish with the salon's real booking route or location. Before-and-after images work best when the angle, lighting and crop make the difference easy to judge. If the page only shows finished portfolio work, group examples by one service instead of implying unsupported transformations.

Can I use trending sounds with a salon TikTok ad?

Yes, but the trending sound is handed over as a link so the salon can attach it natively when posting to TikTok. The sound is not baked into the exported video because baked-in audio does not count as using that sound on the platform. The rendered salon ad can still include synthesised audio scored to the cuts, with audio normalised to -14 LUFS. Before posting, use the supplied link to find the sound in TikTok and attach it to the vertical video there. Check that reveal beats still align after choosing the sound, especially when a balayage result, extension length change or three-image stylist portfolio sequence depends on a precise cut. Keep service labels readable without relying on lyrics or spoken audio.

What the browser actually gets

The browser can capture visible salon logos, colours, service copy, booking details, stylist profiles and portfolio images from the supplied page. It may struggle with before-and-after galleries hidden behind sliders, login screens, cookie overlays or images loaded only after complex interactions, so a public page with clearly paired results works best.

The common mistake

A common salon ad mistake is opening with a long logo animation while the before-and-after result arrives too late. Show the starting hair or finished transformation immediately, then add the salon name, service and booking detail after viewers understand what changed.

Before-and-after photos sit in separate gallery tiles, making the transformation difficult to show as one clear TikTok story.
Stylist portfolio pages contain strong colour, cut and extension work, but turning those images into a paced vertical edit takes time.
Service names, salon branding and booking details must stay readable while portfolio photos fill a 1080x1920 frame.
