🍂 Fall Social Media Content Ideas for Estheticians: Stay Booked During the Slow Season

As summer winds down, many estheticians notice a drop in waxing appointments. Clients are traveling less, covering up more, and sometimes pushing services like Brazilians to the side until the next vacation. But this doesn’t have to mean a slow business season. Fall is the perfect opportunity to strengthen your social media presence, stay visible to your current clients, and reach new ones who are starting to plan ahead for the holidays. 

Social media gives you the ability to educate, inspire, and connect with your audience. By showing your expertise and personality, you remind clients why professional waxing is important year-round. Posting consistently also helps position you as the go-to expert in your area, which means you’ll be top of mind when clients are ready to book. 

To make it easy, here’s a ready-to-use Fall Content Calendar designed specifically for licensed estheticians who specialize in waxing. With posts scheduled every other day, you’ll have a balance of content that speaks to both your clients and your peers in the industry.
