I mostly do facials and brought on sugaring for sensitive skin. I’ve been thinking about switching from sugaring to hard wax because it’s killing my hands 💔 and it takes forever!
Any hard wax suggestions? I recently discovered fruit and chocolate wax, so any feedback from those is highly appreciated!
I have a multi-function steamer that has a variety of rotary brushes, and I'm wondering if anyone uses this in place of microdermabrasion for exfoliation. Or is it just an outdated hand piece? TIA.
I’m a dual therapist currently renting a room inside of a salon. I need to move out because it’s too loud and it affects my services. I found a new independent studio and I will have room for one more therapist.
I am looking to hire a team long-term, so I’m not planning to rent the room to someone. I know that I’ll be responsible for marketing, taxes, supplies, etc. I’m also not fully booked myself, but the new location is a store front and has a lot of foot traffic.
I’m not hiring a receptionist, so the therapist will be responsible for checking in/out the client and retail sales (if applicable). The turnover time is 30 minutes.
What kind of pay structure would entice you to work in a place like this? Or should I hold off on hiring someone and rent the room until I’m more established? Any feedback is appreciated. TIA.
Im looking to move out of a sola salon and into a store front office suite. I’m still growing my clientele, but my current suite is loud and overcrowded for facials. Moving out allows me to extend my business hours, and I can afford the additional costs that come with a store front.
I don’t have a realtor, but I’m touring a place where I directly contacted the landlord. It has high foot traffic and a close community. The zoning allows my business to be there and I’ve also looked into establishment license requirements.
What should I except to present to the landlord? Tax documents? Down payments? Tenant improvement allowance? Should I negotiate for anything specific? Red flags?
Any advice or personal experiences are helpful!
