- The key is to focus on teaching and empowering clients to recreate their hairstyle at home using the same products.
- It is important to explain to clients the products being used and why they are chosen specifically for them.
- Offering a styling lesson at the end of each service can create a captive audience for product recommendations.
- During the styling lesson, stylists should demonstrate how much product to use, why a specific product is recommended, and how to apply it.
- By providing clients with the knowledge and power to recreate their hairstyle, they are more likely to purchase the recommended products.
- Retail sales in the salon suite can generate significant revenue and profit.
- Good retail performance can be measured by the number of units sold per guest.

- By investing the retail profit in a retirement account, stylists can accumulate significant savings over time.
- A simple IRA can potentially grow to almost a quarter of a million dollars after 20 years.
