In this episode, I reveal the good, the bad and the ugly when it comes to shrinkflation and how it all applies to our industry, and I share what will help you determine if a similar strategy is a good fit for your business!

The hair extension industry has seen a meteoric rise in popularity, driven by social media and influencer culture. While early adopters reaped the rewards of high demand and low competition, the market has since become saturated with stylists. This has led to concerns about quality and customer satisfaction. So, is the extensions bubble about to burst or not?
If you currently offer hair extensions in your salon, or you’re thinking of adding the service, you may be asking yourself this very question. In this episode, I break it all down and share the data and insights to help you determine if the market for extensions is oversaturated, or if there is a golden opportunity for you to succeed in it!

Recently, there’s been a surge in viral TikTok videos and Instagram Reels where clients are speaking out against the beauty industry, particularly targeting hair stylists. In this episode, I take a closer look at one TikTok user’s perspective and how (and why) her content is resonating with both clients and stylists alike.
Instead of getting defensive, it’s crucial to understand that these opinions reflect the mindset of a significant portion of today’s consumers. By embracing this alternative viewpoint, we can uncover valuable insights that will help us improve how we serve our clients and grow our businesses.
As an industry, I feel that we need to get back to the art of customer service. As you know, it’s a fast-changing landscape, which is why I want to continue discussing the key shifts we’ll need to make in order to stay ahead, thrive, and meet the evolving expectations of our clients!

In a time where the cost of living is steadily increasing, salon owners face the challenging decision of whether to absorb rising expenses or pass them on to their booth renters. In this episode, we take a deep dive into a DM I received from a booth renter salon owner, as I break down her current pricing model and analyze whether raising the rent is the right move or if it’s time to consider a new salon strategy all together.
I can tell you that money alone won’t solve this challenge, but marketing and really looking at what it’s going to take to create a highly desirable space that people want to work in is going to be the solution here!
