💬 This isn’t just another podcast…we’re releasing our 3/12 Community Conversation from Instagram Live with Ashleigh Taylor of Taylor and York Salon in Washington, DC.

The DMV is changing fast—layoffs, inflation, and uncertainty are on everyone’s mind, including our clients. As hairstylists, we’re not just service providers; we’re trusted confidants, problem solvers, and business owners navigating these challenges alongside our customers.

  • So how do we keep them coming back when they’re cutting back❓
  • Should we raise prices or cut expenses❓
  • And how do we protect our energy while supporting others❓

💡We’re sharing real talk, smart strategies, and actionable steps to protect your business, your well-being, and your future—without burnout.
