Thriving Stylist Podcast

Why do some salon policies feel more like business destroyers than solutions? Today, I'm diving deep into this topic that is causing a major divide in our industry. Is your business model built on long-term solutions for short-term problems? We'll explore how the post-COVID boom led many of us to create strict, complicated policies that are now pushing clients away. You'll hear real-life stories, like a viral client post about feeling like she had to "audition" for a haircut, a stylist's message to me about why his demand is suddenly waning, plus a whole lot more.  If you're wondering what's next for the industry, then this is the episode you've been waiting for! It's an opportunity to take a fresh look at your business and discover why a softening of policies might just be the most profitable trend of 2026. The beauty industry is changing faster than ever. What worked in 2022 or even 2024 won't cut it in 2026, so are you ready?

The Inside Stylists Podcast: Episode 166  8 Mistakes New Stylists Make That Cost Them Clients Show notes for today's episode are here In this episode, I'm sharing the most common mistakes I see interior stylists make and how to avoid them. With over 20 years of experience in the industry, I know how easily things can go wrong on a shoot, especially when you're not fully prepared or clear on the client's brief. I talk about everything from overstyling and ignoring feedback to building strong industry relationships. I also share some personal stories (including one involving salt beef sandwiches!) to show how these play out in real life. Whether you're just starting out or looking to level up, this episode is full of practical tips to help you improve your styling career and keep clients coming back for more.   enjoy! Freestyling Friday with Emma Morton-Turner A few things we covered in this episode : Preparation is crucial; it accounts for 80% of the work. Feedback must be taken constructively, not personally. Asking questions is essential for clarity in briefs. The physical demands of styling are often underestimated. Building relationships in the industry is key to success. Mistakes are part of the learning process in styling. Maintaining professionalism can lead to rebooking. Networking can open doors to new opportunities.

Brittany Hampton is a seasoned athlete stylist whose client roster includes some of the buzziest women in basketball: Paige Bueckers, Sabrina Ionescu, Cameron Brink, Evan Mobley, and Nika Mühl. She's also the Golden State Valkyries' fashion strategist.

Let's talk about silence — not as weakness, but as power.In today's episode, I'm pulling back the curtain on a tough chapter in my leadership journey. Earlier this year, I released a podcast episode that stirred up some real emotions — especially with a few former team members. I almost didn't post it. I questioned everything, even texting Mel asking, “Should we really release this?” But I knew in my gut that I needed to share my truth.What happened next?I got pages of feedback from past employees — some hadn't worked with me for over six months. I asked for honesty, and they gave it to me. Some of it was helpful. Some of it hurt. A lot.And to top it off… it all unfolded in the middle of our big Assistant University launch.People were texting me, “Did you see what so-and-so said?” Screenshots were flying. Stories were being posted. The pressure to respond? Massive.But I didn't.Instead, I chose silence.I chose leadership over drama.I chose peace over pettiness.This episode is about what that season taught me — about boundaries, maturity, and trusting yourself even when it feels like the world is watching.Because not everything deserves your energy.And sometimes, the most powerful move you can make is saying nothing at all.Inside this episode, you'll hear:Why getting the “last word” doesn't always serve youWhat happened behind the scenes after a vulnerable episode went liveThe emotional rollercoaster of receiving unfiltered feedbackHow I handled public criticism during one of the biggest launches of my businessWhy silence can be the strongest response as a leaderIf you're navigating leadership, boundaries, or backlash right now… this one's for you.

As an educator or leader, the person who is helping you is the most important person while under your care. 3. If someone challenges you when learning, let them. For every stylist that challenges you, there are 2-3 that won't.  4. How someone approaches learning is often how they'll approach their career.  5. If you want to grow in this career, all it requires is discipline. 6. You don't have to be a salon owner to be the final boss. You have to have the passion to feed your fellow community. 7. If you are giving 30% of your time to something, how can you expect 100% return? 8. The biggest thing that can kill your career is boredom. 9. Instead of hating on someone, collaborate with them.

As we all know, the economy is a little bit shaky right now, and desperate times call for desperate measures. Sometimes this leads to good people doing things they wouldn't normally do, and today we are talking about credit card charge-backs. In this episode, I share how these charge-backs work, the way that they are processed, and how to protect yourself if you find yourself in this situation.  As we wade through these uncertain times, it's not about making things more difficult for the client, but it's about preparing yourself for success. I think that this conversation we're having today is a step in that direction, and I hope this helps you become aware of what you can do in these situations should they happen to you.  Do you have a question for me that you'd like answered in a future episode like this one?
