Founder and CEO of Salon Scale, Alicia Soulier is back today to share all the different ways we can make our businesses profitable, attract investors and become venture-backed.

Hi friend!

In this episode we hear from Brandon Hutchins, the President Of Professional Brands at Beauty Industry Group (BIG)... which is the parent company to a LOT of popular extensions brands you are probably familiar with. Brands like:

babe_hair beauty_worksonline bellamihair donnabellahair flauntpro glamseamless hairtalkusa halocoutureextensions hiddencrownhair hotheadshairextensions luxyhair twistedfringehair zala_hair_extensions

Brandon shares with us the importance of sustainable and ethically sourced hair for hair extensions (and also what the heck that means), and why BIG cares about it so much.

He then shares what it takes to create a brand of hair extensions and have it backed by a large company like BIG to help you skyrocket your success🚀

Extensions are only getting more popular, and the sooner you know these things, the more relevant you will stay in the industry.
