Logo design for a Beauty Salon
Bamboo Studios is a hair, nail and skin care salon based in Nottingham, UK. They hired us to be the logo designer for their new shop opening back in 2004.

To keep in line with the oriental theme of the salon we used an oriental character and font set and used an electric pink for a more feminine theme.

Love this one, what does the mark mean? Bamboo perchance?

Beauty I believe, at least I hope so as they picked it

The font has an ‘oriental’ feel that complements the kanji superbly

nice and clean. Reminds me of the Japanese Shinto Gates with red character.

The Chinese character means ‘Beautiful’

I love the logo. I don’t know Chinese but that Chinese letter looks cool. Colors are bold. I love the way it catches my eye. Keep up the good work.

Hey I like it how much do you guys charge to design a similar logo? A clean design for a hairdressing site like ours
June 6th, 2009 at 8:00 am
Yes, I would also like to know. How much does it cost to make one. I’d like to make one for my e-commerce site. I love your logos. They are awesome. Keep it up.

Nice design. I love the purple/pink color on black. It just catches your eye. Awesome. Keep up the good work. All the best.

Lovely logo. Is there a meaning to that Chinese letter? Because I’ve seen some tattoos with similar letters and they say each letter has a meaning to it. Colors are amazing. I love it.

Very very nice. I wish I could make logos like that. Those are amazing. All the best mate. Wish you luck on your upcoming projects. Cheers !

I only just recognized this logo now! Because my wife’s been going to Bamboo every other week for the past four (4) years so I guess she’s donated a lot of nails and cuticles to this place!.

I am in the process of opening up my own salon. After reading your article, I’m very excited.
I would like to talk a little bit more about getting started, and financing.

I have not been to this place yet, but I have heard that the service is really good. The logo on the other hand looks fantastic! and the name is so out of the ordinary, I think its rather unique!
August 4th, 2009 at 8:12 pm
This is definitely a nice a salon, the employees there are awfully friendly!
The design seems nice though I don’t recall seeing it at the time. Maybe I was too excited at the time to notice!

I was just looking at the work you have done (top right hand corner of this page, slideshow) I’m very interested in your designs. They really really good. I like the way you design them. Every logo is unique. All the best for your future work.

I like the simplicity of the logo, the magenta helps to make the logo look contemporary rather than traditional.
Just thought, they could use our appointment diaries for booking in their customers.

Very nice, I like the simplicity of it, and it stays in theme. I am left wondering what the symbols mean at first glance though.

I did some logo design for a hair studio and i wanted to see what else is out there and this one was one of the best i found. Really nice colors and typo selection.
