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
