If you’ve ever wondered whether double booking is the secret to making more money or just a fast track to burnout, this episode is for you. I’m diving into the debate that’s dividing stylists right now...is single booking really “better,” or is there still a place for double booking in today’s industry? I’ll share my own journey from triple booking to single booking, what it cost me, what it gave me, and the truth I see now in my own salons.
