In this week's episode, I share a recent conversation I had with a Chicago-based stylist who is one of those rare people who is continually looking for those 1% improvements that separate good stylists from exceptional ones.I talk about why it's essential that salon owners invest in training their team beyond just technical skills.Despite all the time, energy, and financial commitment you make as the salon owner, the real success of your business comes together when the stylist is standing behind the chair. That's where the magic either happens or not…As a salon owner, stop leaving the success of that interaction between client and stylist to chance. Instead, either invest in or develop your own comprehensive training programs that cover communication skills, client service, and the mindset needed for sustained success.

She's been busy getting noted in publications and winning awards like BehindTheChair.com TheTease and ModernSalon.com and has some great stories to share about the beauty industry.

In this episode, I have the privilege of chatting with Vivienne Blake—a name maybe not familiar to you but someone who came to my attention as a member of our How To Cut It Platform Community. Vivienne has not only carved a unique path in our industry as the owner of her boutique salon and an independent educator, but also launched her innovative product—See Me Aprons—all while balancing these roles. Vivienne shares a journey that began with dreams of high-fashion work, but life had other plans. A chance opportunity led her to Vidal Sassoon salon, where she honed her skills and laid the groundwork for her future endeavours. Vivienne is a brilliant example of how a career in hairdressing can be both transformative and pivotal—something I'm always thrilled to champion. Her journey showcases the incredible flexibility this industry offers. From working with a global hair brand, she navigated the profound challenge of returning home to care for her father. This led her to ingeniously convert a bathroom into a makeshift salon. Following this, she established a charming boutique salon, shared her passion for haircutting as an independent educator, and then launching her own product line, See Me Aprons. Truly inspiring! Vivienne's story could help you take the next step in your own journey, whether that's launching a product line or creating a tool for the industry. But it isn't easy—and Vivienne will share some of her obstacles with us. But if you dig deep, it could pave the way for opportunities—something that Vivienne is now experiencing as her see Me Aprons are being sold in leading hairdressing wholesalers. This is precisely what I adore about our industry: with a spark of an idea, boundless energy, passion, and staying power, you can achieve anything. Who ever said hairdressing is a stagnant career? Absolutely not! I love bringing inspiring members of our Platform Community, like Vivienne, onto the podcast. Her entrepreneurial journey and her resilience and adaptability serve as a testament to what can be achieved while working behind the chair and running a salon. Be inspired and enjoy!
Whether it's on social media or podcasts or articles that I read, It seems to me that the goal of salon owners everywhere is to leave the floor.I don't think it's inevitable, but there seems to be a point in the lives of many salon owners where they say that they want to step away from being behind the chair. But there's a problem, and the problem is that often, the reason that they can't step away from behind the chair is because they're the salon's number one earner.So what's the solution?Let's begin by looking at how they ended up in this position in the first place. Tune in to learn how to redefine your role as a salon owner so that you set your business up for long-term success.

Whether teaching face-to-face in small hands-on classes, on main stage, or reaching his millions of social media followers via laptop or mobile device – the new classroom, Sam changes people. He is a true leader that brings out the best in others. As the 2017 NAHA Lifetime Achievement Award Winner he is known for doing things differently to challenge, inspire and motivate change. His encouragement to stylists is unrivaled, as he genuinely wants each one of them to reach deep to identify how they can make a change to promote their own growth. Sam's talents stretch far beyond his brilliant cutting and finishing skills; he has a plethora of business skills that enliven stylists to think about how they speak to their guests to add value behind the chair.“Sharing is the greatest gift we can give one another…to help each other grow and prosper, we all need to pay it forward,” says Sam. Consistent research, along with a respect for the fundamentals, Sam is always on the move for new and unconventional ways of cutting and finishing hair - like using a flat iron for versatility, texturizing iron to create hidden volume and using disconnection to create styles that look blended and can be worn in multiple ways. He is a true messenger sharing his knowledge with stylists in hopes that they too will share with others to enrich the industry…an act of giving for which he was named the 2020 International Hair Influencer of the Year at the International Hairdressing Awards.Sam is in his glory and most comfortable when teaching – a natural transition from his early coaching days in sports. Practice, practice, practice, until you master the craft and then share with others, so they too can become successful! Whether facilitating an in-salon class, on stage at a major show, or conducting a digital event, there is always something to be discovered and learned. “Stylists need a good understanding of the fundamentals of basic techniques. Once mastered, technique can then be manipulated to create modern silhouettes and textures,” explains Sam.“It's time to SHOUT IT OUT! The way for us to BE better is to COME TOGETHER as an industry, and the SHOUT begins here with Sam Villa and Redken!” adds Sam.Sam is co-founder of the Sam Villa® brand (Allvus, LLC) www.samvilla.com targeting stylists, as well as consumers. He shares hot tips and techniques live and virtually, and has a branded line of tools – brushes, combs, thermal tools and shears/razors – for both in-salon use and at home.

Today is the first in a series of three episodes over the coming weeks where I will be talking to hairstylists who make extraordinarily high revenue figures behind the chair about what it does take! My guest on today's podcast is Denise Deering from JUUT SalonSpa in Palo Alto. In her 28 years behind the chair, Denise has never needed to take a sick day, and she is still wholeheartedly passionate about what she does. In today's podcast, we will discuss: The key to making extraordinary figures working behind the chair How long it takes to build up a column Avoiding burnout Finding balance And lots more!

In today's episode, we're joined by Kara Fades, the talented hairdresser who's been making waves on TikTok. Kara charges a cool $125 for her haircuts and even treats her clients to a hand massage while they sit in her chair. But today's topic of discussion is whether Kara should charge even more for her top-notch services. Along with co-hosts Matt and Ari Gold, we dive into a variety of topics, ranging from business ideas to the appearance of Daddy Long Neck. We even brainstorm some possible names for a new business venture that offers haircuts and adult services in Nevada. But we don't stop there. We also talk about the ups and downs of being an influencer, the potential market for butthole shaves (yes, you read that right), and the merits of OnlyFans beyond adult content. Kara also opens up about nicking a client's genitals during a haircut and confesses to doing one happy ending. But don't worry, she assures us that it's not as sexual as people might think. Intrigued yet? I thought so. So go ahead and listen to this wild and hilarious episode now. Trust me, you won't regret it.
