Business economics for stylists suggest that your business income remain in a 60/40 ratio. 60% profit, 40% business expense. If your billing equals $50 and hour, if you are managing your expenses, your profit will be $30 (40% of $50 is $30) an hour. It’s important to take that into consideration. Keep your receipts and at the end if the month, tally up your income vs your business costs (supplies, salon rent, phone, cc processing fees, refreshments) and see what your profit/cost is. Are you keeping within the 60-40 profit/cost ratio. Divide that by how many hours you worked to determine how much you actually made per hour.
Thanks for sharing!
Great information. Thanks again Jamie. I love the "hourly" rate idea, and the "range" idea. I have found myself in the past quoting someone an exact price, only to kick myself in the butt later when I realize it took me an hour longer then I had guessed.

Yes you should it was so very helpful
I’d love to see a video about how expenses play in to this, how much your actual take home is even when you’re charging this much but having to pay for all of your products etc. Also curious how this works for commission stylists because even if I am technically charging the right amount I’m only getting a percentage of that
I'll keep that in mind for a future video! Thanks for watching.
Thank you so much for all of your videos♥️you don’t understand how much you help the new generation

I love this! Such a great way to break down the pricing!
I'm so glad you loved this. Thanks for sharing!
Wonderful information, thank you! I would love to see a video in the future on selling products or service upgrades to clients. What is your advice? I really struggle with this in school. Sometimes I feel awkward talking about products. It feels like I'm forcing products on them in some way. I live in a college town and get a lot of students and people on a budget, so this plays into that. Thanks so much. ❤
Thanks so much for your suggestion! I'll definitely keep that in mind for a video!
Thank you so much for sharing your wealth of knowledge with us! You’re amazing! Love your work! Appreciate all you do for our hair community!

Hey Kristyn Alexander I'm so happy to hear you've learned so much from my videos! Thank you so much for watching.
How do we do taxes as stylists??
I'll keep that in mind for a future video! Thanks for watching!
Jamie Dana please do Jamie!😊
🙏🏾
I really recommend hiring an accountant who specializes in small business, self employment, or just has experience with hairstylists in general. I used to so my own taxes and didn’t even realize the mistakes I was making! It’s so worth the money to have a professional who really knows what they’re doing and will keep you out of trouble!
If you’re talking booth rent where you handle all of your own cash I was always told to save about 25% of everything i make towards taxes. Many times I don’t actually owe that much after write offs and what not but its always been a good estimate for me and I’ve been self employed for about 8 years now.
Thank you Jamie for posting this! 💜
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
thank you for this video!! very informative
Thank you so much! I'm thrilled to hear you loved it.
Amazing!! Thank you so much for sharing !!
You're so welcome. Thanks for watching!
So simple and helpful! Thank you ☺️
What’s the formula for that pink you have in your hair ? It’s so beautiful 😊
Thanks, it was very precised and helpful.
Thank you so much again
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
Extremely helpful. Thank You!!!
Omg thank you! 🙌 I needed this!
I'm so glad you loved it. Thanks for watching!
This makes commission seem like my goals will never be possible unless I switch to booth rent
I would be very curios to know your take on double booking. I recently stopped this practice but feel my prices should increase to reflect the fact that the person in my chair is receiving all my attention and I rarely if ever run behind now. Any thoughts would be appreciated.
Hillery Parker I’ve actually been contemplating this as well. Good question.
I'll keep this topic in mind for a future video!
I think you could double book but try hiring an assistant, this has been a game changer for myself 😊
Kate Wilkinson yes that would be ideal but I #1 don’t have the clientele and #2 don’t want to double book again, I have clients who didn’t understand it and didn’t like it and also I was prone to running behind especially if someone was late it would snowball into my whole day.
Hillery Parker I totally get that less stress is worth not doubling. You should definitely raise your prices 😊
This is great!!! You and I are so similar!!!
Love it! Thanks for watching!
i love all your videos thank you so much for sharing them
Jamie-what do you recommend for tipping? I always tip my stylist 20% and most people think I am crazy because I spend about $120 every 6 weeks for my service....
Judy Besse I’m curious what you think about tipping too!!
As a stylist, for me it helps tremendously when a client spoils me. Your stylist is lucky.
@@CosmoQueen91 I think they should be tipped 20% ...
20% and if 20% is more than 30$ maybe 30 dollars flat
Judy Besse I tip 20% on my services, hair/sugaring/massage. For myself, I’m not expecting a tip and when they do it’s a nice bonus.
Thank you soo much! I needed this 💕
Awesome video I’m so grateful for al I’ve learned from you!! LOVE IT! 🙏🏽🙌🏽💇🏽♀️
I'm so happy to hear you learned so much from this video. Thanks for watching!
Jamie Dana I’ve been watching for a few months now. They are wonderful!
Could you do a video on how to take pictures? Camera vs iPhone how to find the best picture spot. Etc
I'll definitely keep that in mind for a future video! Thanks so much for watching!
money money money.......yes!
Thanks for watching!
Great info!
I'm thrilled to hear you loved it. Thanks for watching!
Don't forget the time you will be taking off during the year as well. You can then subtract the number of weeks off from 52!
Good point!
Thank you so much! I've been out of the business for many years raising my family. My youngest just started college and now I'm recreating myself. I would like to reenter my beauty career, and I'm researching ways to do so. I maintained my license and over the years took care of my family's hair care needs. Do you have any insight that you could share with me that would get me started in the right direction? Thank you for all your videos, they are all really awesome!!!
I'll keep this in mind for a future video! Thanks for watching.
Carolyn, I'm in the same boat! It's so different now than it was before I had my kids...
Thank you so much. You have been helping as a stylist to feel confident more nowadays with my skills.
Hey Cam Nguyen I'm so happy to hear you've learned so much from my videos! Thank you so much for watching.
Yes more videos very helpful
I'm so happy to hear that! Thanks for watching!
THANK YOU!
You're welcome! Thanks for watching!
Nicely done Jamie :)
Omg yes more more videos like this, thank you 😊✨
I'll keep that in mind for future videos! Thanks for watching!
what about cost of product? extra training or certifications required to do that service? certainly you should be charging for this on top of this rate... on the flip side , what about worth? i think its great that hairdressers empower each other to "charge their worth" and all that....but so often i see this from stylists who don't care to spend the time or the money to become this "worth" ... just a thought.
You’re an angel
Thank you so much Jordan!
Very good I like it 👍
I'm thrilled to hear you loved this! Thanks for watching!
amazing video!
Thanks for watching!
Thanks so much this was really helpful! I’m struggling figuring this out though. I just picked what I’d like to make per year, which is more than I’m making now, and after following the steps I would have to charge less than what I charge now. So with the higher prices that I’m charging now, I am making like 20,000/year less than the goal I picked. How does that work? I may have to message u🤦🏻♀️
Sounds like some math got mixed up! I would recommend trying it again and seeing what you come up with!
Girl... I love you!
Thank you so much!
Jamie Dana I just started to booth rent right after school and your channel has been a life savor
Excellent advice :-)
Glad you thought so! Thanks for watching!
Really liked your video
What about when you are first starting out... this is my issue I finish school in a week and I don’t know what to charge for anything lol I’m also certified in lashes and would love for this to be my main source of income. But I also love hair as well. I get so many different answers were I. The beginning charge your worth your experience to no charge what everyone else is charging for that service cas it’s hard to bump prices vs lowering them
I love this question! I'll keep this in mind for a future video. Thanks for watching!
I really struggle with this. I feel guilty for charging anyone for any type of service. Stupid but its true. Im Puerto Rican and ppl expect me to charge at PR prices living in ATL..I travel an hour or more when I go to my clients and charge only $25 a cut and they complain! Sucks makes me feel deflated honestly NOBODY RESPECTS THIS INDUSTRY
good idea !!!
How do you handle booking a new client whose hair you have never seen and trying to figure out how much time to dedicate? Just because it generally takes you X hours to complete doesn't mean that you won't end up with a client who has more hair and it takes you longer.
The more color you do the more that you start understanding your timing. If you're worried, book extra time! Thanks for watching!
Omg imagine if you did videos in pasties!!! ❤️❤️ that would be so trendy!
Bravo!! Thnk u Thank u
Thank you!
Great video! -N. Providence
You're amazing
Thank you so much!
How do you know what to charge to cover the cost for color. Is there a formula for color charges?
how would this apply to today's prices(with inflation). Should i also wait until I've built my books for pricing this way?
What are the many cashless options that stylist can accept payments from their customers? Thanks
Question what if you move slow in foiling and how do you know how much to charge vs normally how people could do it in half the time but your into the details so how to charge ?
Best video
Thank you so much! That makes me so happy to hear!
Is processing time part of the hourly rates?
Yes it is!
Hi. The letter is no longer available????😭😭😭😭🤔
Hello. My hair stylist is thinking about increasing her hourly price from $75 per hour to $80 per hour. I’m just wondering if you think that is too much? I can no longer afford to see her.
love the info in your videos but I wish you would get to the point faster and include less fluff and repetition.
You're welcome to fast forward 😉
Como puede traducir al español?
Do you have a tooth diamond
How come no one is answering how many stylists to hire?
👍🏼✌🏼💪🏼
If you have the money ,no problem if you all of you that can't afford this educate yourself go to Sally hair beauty supply's stores, they will help you and do it yourself, also watch videos on line better products . If you do not have that much money to spend on hair you can still look great do it yourself practice make perfect. God bless you all take care
100,000 a year- your not a doctor?
Prices getting so high that I can no longer afford my hairdresser. Pricing so high lost a customer.
So if it takes 5 hrs to do a client's hair to highlight you expect 750 ? No wonder why people try and do their own hair.
You can't charge an extra 40 euro an hr to your clients just because you don't want to work full time. Industry doesn't work like that. Also its dishonest to the client. If you want to make highlights the same as bayalage ..then do it.
