In any time, women go out either for work, for shopping, for party or for just hang out with friends, it takes a huge time for them get ready by doing make up, hair styling, and using perfume. These things help her a nice look and soothe others eyes.
At social level, physical beauty is an advantage as being beautiful gives a person much more confidence. Even it has been demonstrated by Young (2011) that being attractive can give a person up to 10 folds increases in getting marry. According to Gilmore, Beehr & Love (1986) Physically attractive job candidates whose qualifications are similar to those of less attractive candidates are more likely to be hired highly for the same job. Moreover, the beautiful are more likely to get promoted to higher positions and to be paid more (Young 2011).
it can be surely big advantage if you have a Physically attractive beauty and Everything will become easy to you. Women have been aware of their external appearance since ages themselves. One can change her face and her figure in various numbers of ways now days. In the old days, Woman used herbal treatment to beautify themselves to maintain longly their beauty.
Nowaday, a beauty salon is to take care of women‟s beauty. One provides various kind of beauty service such as skin-facial, bleach, pedicure, manicure, body massage, spa, make up; hair-hair cut, oil massage, ozone treatment, spa, color; piercing, plucking, henna, waxing and different type of therapy. Many firms identified the needs of women in beauty and established salon to meet them. In line with the propositions put forward by Schwer & Daneshvary 1 (LUAN.hanoi TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.hanoi (2000) and Joy, Sherry, Troilo & Deschenes (2010), Now women tend to spend more time, energy and money on beautification by visiting beauty salons In recent years, the beauty care service industry has flourished in Vietnam.
The growing population of beauty-conscious women and their demand for variety of service is crucial to the growth of the industry. To enter well in highly potential market of beauty, there is a need for beauty salon to change to meet more and more customer. Therefore, maintaining high levels of service quality and developing new methods for improving service quality in the beauty care industry are noteworthy topics for discussion, so the author would like to select the content of “Service quality and customer satisfaction of beauty service at the beauty salon in the city Ha Noi”. With research content as above, the author poses research questions for this topic as follows: - What are the factors influencing customer satisfaction and service quality of beauty salons.
- What is the current status of customer satisfaction and service quality of beauty salons. - What is the evaluation of business owner about customer satisfaction and service quality of their beauty salons? - What is the difference between two sides in customer satisfaction and service quality of beauty salons? - What are the suitable solutions to improve customer satisfaction on beauty service of beauty salon? 2. Literature review Chin-Hui Yanga,, Yu-Cheng Leeb (2016) conducted a research which focuses on the influence of high-quality items on customer satisfaction and evaluation. Though 5 basic conponents of SERVQUAL and SERVPERF models, they are completed questionaires from 257 customers of beauty beauty salon s located in six munipalities in Taiwain.
To emphasize the importance of these differences, the authors applied the classification results to the refined Kano‟s 2 (LUAN.hanoi TIEU LUAN MOI download : skknchat@gmail.hanoi model (RKM), and adopted various weighted scores to represent the importance of customer satisfaction. The importance–performance analysis (IPA ) method and impact range performance analysis (IRPA) method were employed to determine the priority of service quality improvements.This study provides a very interesting figure that the customers placed the most importance on “cordial service,” The second most important aspect was “beauty care material” followed by “equipment maintenance”, “service provider knowledge” and “advanced beauty care equipment”. One of the implications of this study is that higher levels of satisfaction could be enabled among customers through service improvements. On the whole, beauty care centers or salons should emphasize improving service quality based on the criteria that were identified as less satisfactory according to the customers.
The author also made a recommendation for beauty care centers or salons to apply the principles of considering the most importance on “cordial service,” “beauty care materials,” “equipment maintenance,” “service provider knowledge,” and “advanced beauty care equipment.” Spyridoula Vryoni, Panteleimon Bakirtzoglou and Panagiotis Ioannou (2017) designed a research to investigate the impact of service quality on customers' satisfaction in SPA centers in Greece. By an empirical study of 207 customers of 10 Spa centers. Measurements included the use of the SERVQUAL instrument (Parasuraman, Zeithaml, & Berry, 1988) to measure perceptions of service quality. Factor Analysis was used to identify the predictive variables of customers‟ satisfaction.
