W E L C O M E , C L I E N T S !
On the outside, the hair industry is flashy, trendy, colorful, loud,
and fun. It's true that fashion shows, photo shoots, and drastic
makeovers are some of our favorite projects. But only some. We
are about so much more than just the latest trends and what gets
the most likes on social media. We care deeply about each and
every client—whether they're trying a new hairstyle, worried about
thinning hair, interested in a new technique, going through a fight
for their life, or anything in between. When our work touches a
client's heart, that is what our industry is really all about. While
you'll read about some of the latest hair trends in this issue, I
hope it is the pieces that show the real heart of our profession—
like how it is so difficult for us to raise prices and how a hair
appointment is about more than the hair—that really stand out.
