I run a hair salon. Here are recent looks: [describe]. Write 5 Instagram captions in a warm, fun voice, each with a call to book and a few relevant hashtags.
The payoff: A week of posts drafted — so your feed stops going quiet.

Common questions

I can describe the look in words, but the AI can't see the photo — will the captions still work?

Yes. You describe what's in the shot — the cut, colour, texture, any styling details — and the AI writes from that. A short description ('lived-in balayage on mid-length hair, warm honey tones') gives it enough to produce something specific and on-brand.

Will all five captions sound the same?

Not if you ask it to vary the angle — one caption about the colour, one about the vibe, one with a behind-the-scenes feel, one with a booking call-to-action. The lesson shows how to brief that variation upfront so the week of posts actually looks like a real feed.

Can it write hashtags that are actually relevant to my salon's location and style?

Yes — tell it your suburb, your niche (balayage specialist, curly hair, bridal), and it will suggest hashtags that fit. You review and cut any that don't feel right.

Do I need a paid AI plan to do this?

No. The free tiers of ChatGPT, Claude and Gemini all handle this kind of caption-writing comfortably. The lesson uses whichever you already have open.

What if I only have one photo this week, not a handful?

One good look is enough. Describe it from a few different angles — the before/after story, the technique, the client's reaction — and you can still get three or four distinct captions from a single shot.
