I get asked a lot if the Salon is worth building, hopefully this post will help you make that decision!
You can find the Salon near the park on the row of shops that includes the Pet Store and Promotions R Us:
The Salon is not needed to complete any quest so there is no rush to build it but once built you will unlock new hairstyles, accessories, eye colours, tattoos and other customisations for your sims:
Once built a pop up will appear with all the new items you have unlocked, in this post I will separate them into age groups and where you can find them in the store
Toddlers
Tattoos & Makeup: Facepaints
Preteens
Eyes
Hair
Tattoos & Makeup: Facial Customisations (e.g freckles and spots)
Accessories: Eyewear and Earrings
Teens
Eyes
Tattoos & Makeup: Makeup
Hair
Adults
Eyes
Hair
Headwear: Hats
Tattoos & Makeup
Accessories: Eyewear and Earrings
Facial Hair (masculine)
Seniors

Eyes
Tattoos & Makeup: Tattoos
Accessories: Eyewear
Facial Hair (masculine)
I can’t find the new items, where are they?
You will find them in the store tab either in create a sim or the wardrobe, you will need to purchase each item you unlock in the Salon for each age group and body type and then you will find that item in your wardrobe or create a sim
If you buy some makeup for a feminine adult sim you would need to purchase it again if you wanted to use it on your masculine adult sims or teenage sims but once purchased for your feminine adult sim you will be able to use it on any of your feminine adult sims
Once the quest is over you can still earn maternity tokens to buy all the items from the maternity store by completing another pregnancy event!
If you buy all the items in the row you will unlock the prize shown at the end, for example buying all of set 1 nautical furniture unlocks the set 1 prize pack which contains more furniture items:

This has been a much requested post, it has just taken me a while to get all the information collected for it! This post shows how much it costs to build each business and the time it takes as these factors increase each time you build a business.
NOTE: the amount of sims needed has been removed as you no longer need to have a certain amount of sims to build a business

If they add anymore businesses I assume they will be the same requirements as they are for 25
However some businesses that you have to build during a quest or to begin a quest do not follow this pattern, some may be completely different while others such as the Community Center take a certain amount of time to build and this doesn’t change but the cost still increases each time you build a business.
NOTE: the arcade, beach, pet park and carnival cost orbs to build not simoleons
Does building a business increase the price and time for workplaces or houses? No, building a business only increases the requirements for building another business, it will not affect a workplace or house. If you build a workplace then the requirements will increase for the next workplace only and if you built a house only the time and cost for building a new house will increase.

This is going to be a very quick post as there isn’t much to say about the pet salon but I have been asked about it.
If you don’t know where to find it it is near the competition center (the location can be found on my town map post)
What can you find in the pet salon?
If you complete the A Puppy Odyssey quest in the time limit you unlock outfits for your kittens and puppies that can be brought from the pet salon
The main reason for it though is to buy collars for your adult cats and dogs so they can go to the Pet Park (which can be built once you complete the life dreams and legacies quest) to complete the Cat Show, Dog Agility and Dog Obedience hobbies!
You can also buy Christmas antlers and hats for your adult cats and dogs!
How do you buy items?
The pet salon works the same way as the sims salon, you select the pet you want then you can choose the collar, hat, headwear or outfit for them to wear and click the green tick in the corner to buy
Dog– collars, hats and headwear
Cat– collars, hats and headwear
Puppy– outfits (if you complete the A Puppy Odyssey quest in the time limit)
Kitten– outfits (if you complete the A Puppy Odyssey quest in the time limit)
How do I remove an item? Click the back arrow which is the first box on the options
If I replace an item with another one, would the first be stored? No, you would have to buy it again
How do I send a pet to the pet park once they are wearing a collar? Click on the pet and select, send to pet park
