Single black thread, 8,870 stitches at the 4-inch size. Its built around the classic salon-sign look -- combs, scissors, a spray bottle, round brush, tail comb, and a blow dryer all fanned outward from the center like a bouquet, with a delicate floral wreath and two clean ruled lines underneath where a shop name would normally go. Theres no color stops, it stitches out as one uninterrupted run. Ive had people order this specifically because they didnt want to commission something fully custom but still wanted that nameplate-style layout.
Digitised in Wilcom EmbroideryStudio, so the satin lines stay tight and the density doesnt drop off across all 5 sizes -- from just under 4 inches up to 7.5 inches wide. Use a cutaway stabiliser underneath on aprons and heavy canvas duck fabric, or a tearaway if youre hooping something lighter like a linen towel. Pop it on a dark navy or black apron and the black thread reads clearly against the weave texture. Works on white or cream fabric too -- either way its a clean graphic stamp that doesnt need any color changes to look finished.
The ruled lines are genuinely useful for personalisation. Stitch the design as-is, then run a second hoop with a name or business title in whatever font suits the salon -- it lines up naturally with the ruled section and both passes look like theyve been planned together. Last summer a couple of salon owners used it for their rebrand and Im still getting good feedback about how it came out. Works perfectly on its own too, no name required, just as a beauty industry motif on a tote or apron pocket.

About the artist
Reyazul Masud Riham, hand-drawing every design on this site
Every design on Re Embroidery is hand-digitized by one person. Each file gets sketched, color-matched, and stitch-tested on real fabric before it earns a place in the shop. No team. No auto-conversion from images. Just slow, deliberate work, sometimes three or four days per design.
That's the joy I work for.
The hard part is finding my designs re-uploaded and resold elsewhere. So when you buy from Re Embroidery, you're paying one real person for the file you're about to download. That matters.
