The inside scoop of the future of the beauty industry and how to be at the top of your game in 2024 moving forward.```````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````````Co-founder and Chief Creative Officer of Sam Villa andGlobal Artistic Ambassador for RedkenSam Villa is changing the industry, one hairdresser at a time. 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. All Sam Villa tools are designed with ergonomic benefits to eliminate common hairdresser complaints and ensure ease of performance. Education is the path to success.

What is enough? this question stopped me in my IG scroll and made me think about what Enough means to me and when I know I feel like I have "enough." Andrew and I share our thoughts on this topic as well as some other mindset tools we use that make us feel more enoughness. Andrew: I've been in the industry since 1998 and have played just about every role including hairdresser, owner, photographer, educator/facilitator, and coach. Education and coaching have always been a natural fit for me and that quickly became my focus working for Tigi, Paul Mitchell Advanced Education, Lunatic Fringe Salons, and most recently as Education Director of Sam Villa. In 2021 I took the leap to switch all of my focus to my coaching, mentoring, and facilitation company called The Journeyist. Weather it's one-to-one, facilitating groups, or keynote presentations… my coaching is all about combining modern science-based discovery with esoteric wisdom traditions. Naturally my work has evolved to supporting heart-based leaders, facilitators, and coaches on their own journey.

 Have you ever found yourself struggling with determining what the latest trends in hair are, how to discuss them with your guests, and how to execute them? Have you written off trends as something you don't want to “follow” because it's hard to keep up with the ever-evolving hair world? We get it. The idea behind trends can feel broad and hard to tack down, and it's easy to get lost in all of the ideas. We knew we needed an expert on trend forecasting to join us in this topic, and who better than Sam Villa himself?! We have a discussion with Sam around all of those challenges, get ideas on how to stay ahead of our guests when introducing something new, and get inspiration surrounding the industry's education platforms.

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.

On today’s episode of the Grow My Salon Business podcast, Antony speaks with Sam Villa. Sam is known in the industry for his passion, authenticity, humility, and for being a great educator because teaching is his passion.  Listen in as we discuss: The changes that are happening in education. The role of social media in continuing education. The personal skills of success. Sam talks about his background, why he never wanted to be a barber, and why he chose to be a stylist. He speaks about being in his dad’s barbershop shining shoes for customers when he was a young boy. His father took him to a hair show in 1976 put on by Vidal Sassoon, and that was the catalyst that made him decide to be a hairdresser. He worked at a salon for three years after beauty school and then opened his own salon.  After owning the salon for 20 years, he was offered a great opportunity with Redkin to be an educator. He closed his salon to pursue this new direction. He felt that in the salon, he could only help a handful of people, but being an educator at live shows, he could reach thousands of people.  Listen in as Sam speaks about what customers want, that price is what they pay, and value is what they get. He believes that we all need to be teachers behind the chair and be able to create an experience. Sam talks about continuing education on the internet versus face to face and why he thinks that online is a convenience, but a live event is an experience. Sam shares his knowledge and insight into the industry and what he sees happening in 2020. He talks about the ergonomic tool’s company he launched, his advice for hairdressers, and salon professionals that are thinking about opening a salon. This is one of those conversations you don’t want to miss, so sit back, relax, and plugin. In This Episode: [01:18] Welcome to the show, Sam! [02:12] Sam gives us a backstory on who he is and what he has accomplished in his 43 years in this industry. [03:05] Did you start as a barber? [03:52] He chats about shining shoes at his dad’s barbershop. [04:29] Sam talks about going to a hair show in 1976 that Vidal Sassoon was putting on. [06:34] After beauty school, he went to work at a salon for about three years before opening his own salon in California. [07:45] He got a great opportunity with Redkin and decided to close one chapter and open another. [10:52] Do you think you need to close the salon side to be a runway artist? [13:01] Do you ever miss owning the salon? [14:06] They talk about the changes happening in the industry with education and the need to be at live events. [16:12] Sam tells us why his ego doesn’t get in the way of being humble. [19:55] He discusses why ongoing education is so crucial for all hairstylists. [24:58] What do you think about the two different systems of learning between beauty school and apprenticeships? [28:24] Sam believes that learning from social media is fine as long as you marry it with face to face education. [31:10] What is the difference between the social media channels you use? [33:30] Sam gives us his thoughts on the changes in the industry with technology and advertising. [37:37] He speaks about what he sees globally in salons, the retail model, and the changes to come. [42:11] What still drives you? What keeps you going after all these years? [44:46] Sam talks about how he reinvents himself and how he keeps himself relevant. [46:47] He tells us that when diversity hits, as long as he can pick himself back up and learn from it it’s not a mistake. [48:19] What’s the biggest lesson that you have learned in life in general? [49:41] Sam gives us his advice for someone going through each stage of their career as a hairdresser. [53:15] What information would you give someone thinking of opening a salon? [55:47] They talk about when it’s the right time to close a salon for whatever reason and have an exit plan. [57:53] Sam speaks about what he thinks 2020 holds for the industry and his goal for the year. [59:31] They discuss what has been televised about the risk with permanent hair color. [1:02:30] Sam speaks about the ergonomic tool company that he says is his exit plan. [1:05:27] Sam gives us his final words.
