We asked our beauty pros, “What advice would you give to someone who is thinking about transitioning to a salon suite from a traditional salon?” and this is what they had to say:
“DO. IT. It is the most liberating feeling you will ever have in your career. If you’re nervous, you’re not alone. It’s a big decision, but it’s worth it all! Gather information from salon suites and people you may know who are in them. Break down the costs you know you’ll have, and save whatever you can for initial start up fees. Once you get going it is smooth sailing!”
“It’s hard work and it’s scary at first but change is scary. Change is also rewarding and exciting. This will be one of the most exciting and rewarding experiences you’ll have.”
“If you have an established client base owning your own suite is the way to go! Freedom and independence at your fingertips. Choosing your décor, design, products, services, and everything in between has been the best experience. I worked over 15 years in the beauty industry and transitioning to a business owner has been the best and happiest decision of my life! ”
“Don’t let the fear of not succeeding stop you from having the career you always dreamed of.”

“Do it! It’s the best decision you’ll ever make! Financially and mentally!”
“Be your own boss and know your worth. Success is never owned it’s rented and rent is do every week. Don’t limit yourself. many people limit themselves to what they think they can do as far as your mind will let you. What you believe remember, you can achieve.”

“The secret to getting ahead is getting started.”
