Are you secretly giving yourself a pay cut? This week, I’m calling out one of the salon industry’s worst habits — working for free. Your costs have gone up, your rent’s gone up, your products have gone up… and if your prices haven’t, you’re quietly earning less for the same hours. It’s time to fix that.

In this episode, I’m walking you through when and how to raise your salon prices without losing clients or feeling guilty. We’ll cover what to say, how to handle pushback, and how to make sure your new prices reflect the quality you deliver every day. No drama, no apologies — just smart business and confident communication.

If you’ve been avoiding your price review, consider this your nudge to take action. You deserve to be paid properly for your time, skill, and service. Let’s make sure your next pay rise comes from you, not your clients’ good will.
