--- title: New Stylist Announcement Email Templates for Salons (Copy and Paste) description: 'New stylist announcement email templates for salons: a warm intro, specialty versions, an openings-this-week note, and a reminder to fill a new chair.' canonical: https://letsrezzy.com/guides/new-stylist-announcement-email-template last-updated: 2026-11-09 --- # New Stylist Announcement Email Templates for Salons (Copy and Paste) A good new stylist announcement email for a salon goes to your existing clients right after the new person's hours and services are live online. It names them, says what they're great at, says when their book opens, and ends with one booking link. Add them to your team first, then email the clients who agreed to marketing email. Below: a warm intro, versions for a barber, nail tech, lash artist and massage therapist, a specialty spotlight, and an openings-this-week reminder. Writing to someone before their own first visit? That's a [new client welcome email](/guides/new-client-welcome-email-template) instead. ## When should you send a new stylist announcement email? **Send it once clients can actually book the new person online.** 1. **Before you send:** they've accepted the invite, and their hours and services show on your booking page. See [add team members](/guides/add-team-members). 2. **A few days before their first open slots:** early enough that regulars can grab them, late enough that nobody forgets. 3. **One reminder, only if needed:** about a week later, if their book still has gaps. 4. **Then stop.** No weekly "still new here" notes. Never announce someone clients can't find on your booking page. ## What should a new stylist announcement email say? 1. **The client's first name.** 2. **The new person's first name and role.** "Maya, our new colorist" beats "a new team member." 3. **What they do best.** One line: balayage, skin fades, gel extensions, volume lashes, deep tissue. 4. **When their book opens.** A real date, or "this week." 5. **One booking link.** Here's [where else your booking link belongs](/blog/put-your-booking-link-everywhere). Leave out the long bio, the hiring language and the discount. A short, warm intro does the work. ## What are good new stylist announcement email templates? Swap the brackets. Cut any line that doesn't apply. ### Warm intro > **Subject options:** Meet our new stylist, [New name] / [New name] just joined [Studio] / New on the team: [New name] > > Hi [Name], > > Some good news: [New name] has joined us at [Studio].

A welcome email greets a new client. A hiring post looks for applicants.** | | New stylist announcement | New client welcome | Hiring post | |---|---|---|---| | Who reads it | Existing clients | One first-time client | People looking for work | | Goal | Book the new person | Show up prepared | Apply for the job | | Lead with | Their name and specialty | Time, place, what to bring | The role and pay | ## What are the do's and don'ts of new stylist announcement emails? | Do | Don't | |---|---| | Name the person and their specialty | Say "a new team member" and stop | | Send after they're bookable online | Announce someone clients can't book yet | | Use one booking link | Add three ways to book | | Send only to clients who agreed to marketing email | Email your whole contact list | | Space it from your other marketing | Stack it on a campaign the same week | **Their name, what they do best, and one link.** That's the whole job. More templates: a [price increase email](/guides/price-increase-email-template) if a new hire comes with new prices, and a [holiday hours email](/guides/holiday-hours-email-template) if you're adding hours for the season. ## How do you send a new stylist announcement in Rezzy? **Campaigns, autopilot and saved templates are on the Unlimited plan.** On Studio, you email one client at a time. Adding a team member needs Studio (up to five people, you included) or Unlimited (no cap). Solo is for one person. - **Add them first.** Go to **Settings**, then **Team**, enter their name and email, and choose **Send invite**. Set their hours and services so they show on your booking page. See [add team members](/guides/add-team-members). - **One client at a time, on any plan.** Open the client, choose **Actions**, then **Send email**, and paste a template. One-to-one emails send exactly what you type, so fill in every bracket yourself. See [email a client](/guides/email-a-client). - **On Unlimited, send a campaign.** Go to **Marketing**, then **Emails**, then **Campaigns**. Swap [Name] for `{{first_name}}` and the booking link for `{{booking_link}}`, type the new person's name and specialty by hand, pick **Everyone with marketing consent** or **Tagged clients**, and choose **Send a test to myself** first. See [send a campaign](/guides/send-a-campaign). - **Keep the wording.** On a sent campaign's page, choose **Save as template**, so your next hire's announcement starts pre-written. See [save and reuse email templates](/guides/save-and-reuse-email-templates). - **Who it reaches.** Only clients who agreed to marketing email. See [how marketing consent works](/guides/how-marketing-consent-works). Compare plans on [the homepage](/#pricing).
