you wanna know why I fuck with this new friend of mine so much? She called my on my shit when she first met me and didn't realize it (LOL).When I met Robyn, we were both in New York for New York fashion week. we were just having causal conversation, talking about social media and just our journey with it. we of course stumbled on the topic of dealing with imposter syndrome. I start telling her how I deal with ADHD and tremendous imposter syndrome and she replies with "really? I would have had no idea!"and thats where it all changed for me. she was right - I preach about being who you want to be and how important it is, and upon looking at my social media, I felt that I didn't share enough about myself.. I swore I wouldn't die as a hair dresser. I didn't want my social media to be all hair dresser bullshit, and turns out it was more then I thought.that comment made me shift and I truly am forever grateful for it. I value Robyn for her honesty, and her efforts to being the truest version of herself. she opens up about how she made it in this career field, how it's affected her, and what she also deals with mentally.she also talks about being a non-toxic, plastic free stylist and what that looks like for her! I found this so amazing because I totally know the struggle to do that, and her conscious efforts do not go unnoticed.Robyn is definitely the needle in the haystack, the diamond in the rough. there needs to be more Robyns.Here is more about Robyn“I'm a self employed, plant based color specialist. My salon, Honey Comb Studio, is powered exclusively by plastic free, non toxic, vegan products from Indie companies. With 14 years experience, I've taken classes from Jayne Matthews, Nick Arrojo and Michael O' Rourke. It's my intention to help revolutionize this industry to be more inclusive and sustainable. I believe we have to get uncomfortable to make room for growth and opportunity. Building true community means getting vulnerable - and I think that's a superpower we can all use if we choose to.”Follow her on IG! @robyntheriveter

You may not realise it, but I always record this introduction after I have recorded the interview and then edit them together.    I have just finished today's interview with an old friend and NYC salon and school owner Nick Arrojo, and I don’t mind saying it’s had a profound impact on me.    I’ve known Nick since the early 80s when we both worked at Sassoon in the UK and since then he has been one of those success stories building an incredible business in New York, one of the toughest cities in the world. I love success stories and at times like these; I think we need them more than ever.    But, successful people are not successful because they don’t have challenges to overcome, they are successful because they have challenges but they overcome them.    Nick is a salon owner like most of the audience listening to this and like everyone he is also having challenges due to the impact of COVID and the honesty and humility of this interview rams home more than ever what this is really doing to two people's livelihoods and the future of this industry.    In today’s podcast we will discuss: The impact COVID is having on his business Changing business models and the future of hairdressing What leadership, courage and optimism looks like And lots more!   In This Episode: [02:12] Welcome to the show, Nick!

[14:11] Nick shares the perfect storm that hit his salons in 2020. [17:11] He speaks about opening one of his salons during reopening, fully booked with clients, and no staff because they all left. [20:01] Nick discusses his other salons and school and the challenges of making them work for the social distance world. [23:02] Every day that his salons are open, he is losing money even today. [26:06] When your employees left, was it because they wanted to go independent or because the government was paying them more to stay home? [30:25] Nick shares the risks he is facing when he closes one of his salons. [33:00] He discusses negotiating with his landlords. [35:32] Nick walked away from his Tribeca location and shared how much he has to pay the landlord. [38:14] You go from victim to survivor daily, and he has decided to be a survivor. [40:51] 50% of his clients have moved out of the area. [44:05] Nick talks about the percentage of salons being independent businesses of one. [46:14] What do you believe is the new business model for salons as we advance? [48:32] Nick shares the membership model idea that he believes will be the hair industry's future. [51:13] Nick describes all the tools you will get once you are part of his membership model. [54:52] When you become an owner, people think you are stealing their money. [56:24] Antony speaks about his idea of a cooperative business model. [59:20] Nick believes that today the asset is the brand, not the brick and mortar. [1:03:38] Nick shares a story from his past, explaining his very optimistic attitude, even though his businesses are falling apart because of the pandemic.
