Salons go through many towels. You need to change up towels between client appointments, and one client may go through more towels than another. Even if an appointment is for haircutting, you may use one or two towels to dry the hair, another towel to brush off stray clippings and yet more towels to clean up spills or protect the client’s skin and clothes. Buying in bulk ensures you have enough on hand at all times.
