In this episode of The Modern Hairstylist Podcast, Hunter Donia and Jodie Brown talk through a deep dive into the real way hairstylists should be using AI in their business and what to avoid if you want your content to still sound like you.

After airing out their AI frustrations in a recent episode, "Why ChatGPT is Trash," Hunter and Jodie are back with a more strategic conversation about how tools like ChatGPT can actually save you time and make your marketing easier—without compromising your brand voice or client connection.

From better prompts to the exact model Hunter uses daily, this episode will help you cut through the cringe, stop getting robotic results, and finally start using AI in a way that feels good and works.

Key Takeaways:

• Free vs Paid ChatGPT: Why the version you use matters way more than you think, and how to get better results instantly.
• Stop Sounding Like a Bot: Hunter’s simple shift to make AI write like you, not every other stylist on Instagram.
• Better Prompts = Better Content: The 3 prompt tweaks that instantly improve your captions, emails, and more.
• Think Like a Strategist: Why AI shouldn’t replace your brain but can help you organize, polish, and execute faster.
• Personal Use Bonus: How Hunter uses ChatGPT to plan meals, prep grocery lists, and reduce overwhelm in everyday life.

Why You Should Listen:

If you’re an independent stylist who's feeling burnt out by content creation—or if you’ve tried ChatGPT and hated the results—this episode will show you how to use AI intentionally and strategically to get your time (and voice) back. It’s not about cutting corners. It’s about cutting the fluff and building a smarter, more streamlined business behind the scenes.
