Richard John Hair and Beauty Provide Excellent Online Store

The Worthing based Richard John Hair and Beauty salon has recently launched their brand new online store selling a catalogue of top brand hair care and beauty products. And what a store. This has to be one of the most user-friendly and attractive online stores available.

They have chosen to stick to a familiar online shop layout with minimal clutter and unwanted Google adsense advertisements. Navigation is divided between a horizontal menu bar, giving access to information about the business and contact details etc., along with a vertical menu in the left hand pane used to navigate through the enormous range of hair care and beauty products.

The site styling is fantastic. The colour pallet chosen presents a sophisticated, top class salon feel which is varied throughout. Subtle graphical elements have been tastefully utilised to give each of the product categories a slightly different look and feel without being too intrusive or disrupting the site usability. The quality of the images used throughout is extremely high complementing the top-quality site design.

The user interface is simple and intuitive. The main categories menu is clear and easy to follow and this is effectively augmented by a well placed ‘best sellers’ selection and a ‘brands’ menu that will help those shoppers who like to use a particular brand of hair care or beauty product.

Shopping at the Richard John online shop is totally secure and the checkout process is smooth and painless. Unfortunately the site doesn’t make it clear that their checkout facility is one of the most secure available using the Secpay payment gateway.

Any online store that has a high number of products in their catalogue must somehow present these products in a way that enables site visitors to quickly find what they are looking for without having to wade through various levels of sub-categories or pick through numerous options. Richard John has managed to expertly present an extensive range of hair care and beauty products in a way that is both easy and pleasant to use. They are the only online stockist of Decleor and Guinot beauty products and some of their most popular products are from Redken, Aveda and L’Oreal.

In summary, Richard John presents one of the best online hair care and beauty products stores in the U.K. if not the world. Whilst I can’t really comment on how they compare on price I can report that the site is expertly designed, highly secure and easy to use. If you are shopping for hair care or beauty products this Christmas I would recommend that you take a look at www.richardjohn.co.uk.
