Big mistakes come with huge learning lessons.

In 2020, I made a mistake that cost me over $50,000. And the mistake I made is still available to small business owners.

The moral of the story? Hire a professional to read the fine print. It's worth every penny!

"Be your own boss!" "Create your own business where you'll set the rules!" "Be in control of your space, income and more!"

These are all the things that we hear when people talk about opening up their own business, but I'm here to address something important: salon ownership isn't meant for everyone.

It's a thankless job that requires a lot of dedication, effort and funds. While I love being a salon owner, I'm sharing the realities behind the screen so anyone who's interested can make an informed decision.

A lot of stylists think the answer to more money and freedom is to switch to rental.

Being your own boss can sound glamorous, but there's a lot of hard work that goes on every day behind the scenes. This week I share the real side of rental and what top things to truly consider before you make the switch.
