Because of that we need to make sure it looks elegant and modern. But it also should have enough space for all the things needed by receptionist, like computer, appointment cards, pens or notebooks.

The seating is another element that you should carefully think about. Hair salon furniture of that kind are for example benches, couches, single chairs and stools. Whatever will be your choice, they need to be really comfy, but also good-looking. You should also find a matching table to keep magazines on it.
