you a real one
You know I work in a salon where there is NONE of that what so ever. I started working there at 50% commission with 0 clients. My boss has had her salon 17 yrs. I've been there 4yrs now and seen her clientele reduce and reduce. While mine has grown in the past 2 yrs where I get booked 3 to 6 weeks in advance. My clients always text me just to say can't wait for my appointment. I religiously follow this because he is right!!! 100% it has worked for me. Clients pay attention to the way you carry yourself, the way you interact with them, the way you make them feel. Where I am in the moment it's not the best place because my boss is always bringing negative energy into the salon and tension is high. So, I hope soon I can open a salon and keep having that SPARK everyone is looking for! Thank you your words are refreshing let's me not forget on why I decided to be a cosmetologist.
Amen and thank you soooooo much
Lucia Romero I relate 100%.
TheSalonGuy I've opened my beauty salon!! almost 2yrs in business!!!!
Lucia Romero this is great
Thank you for your input girl, IV had my salon for 9 years and it's steady, nothing has changed much and it gets me down I'm looking at how to change things and see what I'm doing wrong, if I can't then I will have to sell 😔, feel like a failure.
There's always something wrong or untrustworthy when a guy spends half the speech telling you what he's about to tell you.
I stopped watching this video after three minutes and 15 seconds because he never got to the point. He talked about his suit etc, but not what this video is about.

A very helpful video and well presented
You absolutely 💯 % right!!!
Thank you, inspired me so much. best wishes
Awesome gorgeous
Inspirational and spot on!!!! Thank you! 👍👍👍✂✂✂
The presentation and video was awesome. You are right about stylists and owners having the right culture together: many hair stylist are rude, not professional, and some don't even style hair correctly.!I have not had my hair done professionally in about five years, because too many stylists don't have the passion to make people like me want to come back. They lack customer service and many just don't care, so I just didn't care to go back to get my hair done by none caring supposed to be hair stylists. They forget that it is a business and they must make a great impression. Great video!👍💯💞💞
Thank you sooooo much
Good information thx 😊
thanks bro top tips.
Great video,will be opening salon soon and I think you are right when you said that your personality is your brand and will atract the same kind of customers. I belive that in a workplace there should be a possitive energy and team work so everyone including clients enjoy the time spend.
Viksi thanks! Let me know if you want a great Salon software and 25% off monthly!
Honesty..thank you.. I needed this. Hello from Trinidad and Tobago
Thank You!
Thanks so much for this helps a lot:)

Wow Stephen , I just watched this video and I must tell you that I am in a salon where none of the things you said are happening. In fact we are losing customers and several of the hairstylist are preparing to leave . I am trying to hold on and not become discouraged , but finding a salon that offers all the things you just said has become harder and harder to find ! But , I am continuing to search till I find the right one . Thanks so much for sharing this profound information . I wish more salon owners had your expertise and vision . God's blessing on you for continued success
God Bless and keep on the right path!
Great stuff! I’m a Realtor but it I can also apply this to my business it’s the same. You need the personality and motivation to work with customers. (If you want them to come back ; )
Yes. We will be happy
Thanks for the tips. Nicely said. i truly believe in great customer service. I intend to adopt some of your models now that i intend to set up a functional salon... nice job
+Ugo Nzewunwa thx so much
awesome-thnx
Can I Triple tap this video?! I just left a salon for these reasons. Such a mistep on both of our parts. He was a sole owner/stylist and I went on as his assistant.. with decades of experience in what I do (newly licensed). He was a hot mess in the last two weeks so I resigned. I will be taking your tips to heart and working on a 5 year plan.
+Lavida Barkley so glad to hear
Greetings form Madagascar, thank you so mush for your tips. Thanks for sharing it to us and I really need that.
+Miharisoa Ramamonjy hi there! Thanks!!!
This was awesome!
Thxxxxxxx
Thanks so much....
Amazing he knows so much with only 20 days experience.
Thank you 😌
. I feel this is an excellent presentation. I truly learnt a lot. I have been in the hair care industry for over 20 years, and I am still learning. The information he shared is very important. Thanks for the information
Thanks James!!!
TheSalonGuy hi salon guy. Im looking to start getting a salon soon as well but im not looking to do anything big what u just spoke about does that still apply?
TheSalonGuy what about a barbershop franchise
Hey bro, I'm about to open a saloon and it's a big ups that I watched this video first, I'm really inspired..... Thanks bro
Did hoy open?
I started working in a salon again after having been off for a couple years due to a move and then being a caregiver to my husband. At the interview, I got the impression that I was walking in to a well established salon. In reality, it's a mess. recently one girl got fired and I have been scheduled to pick up the slack. The salon was supposed to hire someone after me so with me and before this lady got fired we were already working a person short and the manager doesn't seem to be actively looking for someone and she recently got in trouble with the law herself. I'm physically and mentally tired from working back to back. If you have and advice for me, please share. Also, you should know that I am a dedicated and loyal person in and out of work. Thank you.
Starting my own beauty salon has always been my dream but I am terrified! I don't come from much but I believe my passion can get me through it! I have all the qualifications to practice the procedures but I'm now thinking maybe I should take a business/accounts course.... Should I take out a loan to make it the best I can? I don't want to fail. I see it too much these days. Urghhhh
I am in your exact situation. I want to be a cosmetologist and open my own salon too. Mainly because most salons don't offer everything I'd like to offer. I want to offer hair, nails, makeup, facials, eyelash extensions, eyebrow tinting and eyebrow waxing services. I want to make it my style and be my own boss. Also you'll make more money owning your own salon so that's another reason why i want to. I'm just scared of failing. I was thinking of maybe co-owing a salon too but I don't know.
Let's partner up and make it happen! seriously.
Hi, Cara:- You don't have to take out a loan to take an accounts course. Just align yourself with a bookkeeper who can come to your booth, salon or home once per month to review your business operating expenses and give you feedback about how to manage your expenses and how you should plan to expand/grow your business. Good Luck. www.ConsultantBarry.com

sherkita Gibson I finish my course in several months and will be doing a second one after, but keep your options open a salon may not be you best option when you graduate, you should spend more time improving after graduation ;) after years of saving, planning, and experience then open one
should i rent or buy my own building when i first start?
great video!
Hi salon guy am gonna open a salon in Ghana west Africa next year in which I will come up with a cosmetic line. I would like to havr the same name on everything. What is your idea on names. And by the way I loved your video.
Great video. Do you think you can still open a salon with out a clientele? I plan on moving out of state to open a salon and I will obviously lose all my clients. What are your thoughts?
You can but you have to be different than the rest. You need clients to keep the income flowing when starting.
Thanks bro
Good one. God bless
You too

i want know what is difference between lounge salon, studio salon, and a salon
Hi, I agree with your advice tips. The key essential tips you described should be applied to any professional business industry. Whether a brick and mortar or mobile business, professionalism, culture - core values, beliefs, service, financial responsibility, and kind personality are some of the things that will be instrumental for your business to succeed. And, yes, it is very important to do reseasrch ahead of time. Be passionate about what you want to do and implement new concepts and ideas as you cater to your clients. Provide them with fun, exciting, and memorable experiences - as opposed to a mundane, sit and wait experience! Because at the end of the day, you want repeat business and/or referrals, don't you?
Great Video
Greetings! And thank you Stephen for the information.
I have a few questions.
What are some examples of setting up your salon's structure? Are there any retail models, commission scales, what are there? I am attempting to pay my employees but I do not know how. I would like to have my paying structured like they do at Hair Cuttery and all those other chain salons. Can someone help me?
How did it go? I'm planning on opening mine this year any advice?
Great video
As a 20 year old guy in his first year in business at a two year college who wants to open a salon, i ask you upload more videos like this
Sure thing man! I have loads of other business videos on my channel but thanks of relating me know you like this stuff man!
TheSalonGuy Do you think you could get around to doing a Niall Horan hairstyle video? both up and down hairstyles. That would also be great. Keep up the great work, man!

Hi, I know this is an old video, but I have a question. Do you need a cosmetology license to open a salon and just run the operations not provide any of the services (and then obviously require all employees providing cosmetology services have one)? Does this apply in every state?
Just a shop license
