If you want a better life for yourself and your family, you must develop the self discipline and desire to unleash the power within in order to make your goals and dreams a reality.
I am often asked is a career in the beauty industry a great profession to enter ?
My answer is a resounding yes, if you have and know what it takes to stand above the crowd. This is one of the few professions you can get all the overtime you want provided you’re willing to work hard.
Your biggest obstacle will probably be yourself. You control your destiny.
Nobody can stop you from learning and seeking ongoing education and self improvement.
In my opinion a career in the beauty profession is a short cut to achieving financial success.
Unlike going to college where it can cost upwards of $200,000 and up to five years of study with no guarantee of a job when you graduate, even worse most are in debt to pay back their student loans before they get their first job.
A career in the beauty profession offers many opportunities, a great stylist, manager, salon owner, blogger, entrepreneur, image consultant, author, educator, travel, business consultant, mentor, coach, and more.
Most are able to work close to home.

Sadly, far too many hairdressers struggle to make a good living never reaching their full learning and earning potential because it requires hard work, new thinking, continuing education, extra effort, finding quality mentors, sacrifices, and a lot of perseverance.
What you didn’t learn in beauty school could be sabotaging your growth and development.
Today’s hairdresser will need a lot more than just developing their artistic skills to succeed.
My educational programs will also benefit nail techs, skin care, barbers, in fact all facets in the beauty industry.
Yes, building a successful hairdressing career offers many opportunities, but is a journey not a sprint.
In my opinion a career in the beauty profession offers many opportunities to succeed. It worked for me, I know it will work for you.
Let me share my 43 years of experiences as your mentor.
Good is not enough anymore in today’s competitive and changing economy; especially if you want to stand above the crowd, be a motivated entrepreneur, and develop your full potential.
You and you alone hold the keys to your own success or failure.
Are you willing to take full responsibility for your own success or failure or will you join the crowd of people who are always looking for excuses to fail.
My personal Development Book A Hairdresser’s Guide to Success and my audio CD – A Hairdresser’s Journey to Excellence will serve as your road map in helping you make your goals and dreams a reality. Check it out!
If I receive enough responses I will schedule my one day Personal Development Seminar in Las Vegas.
Here is a sample of the benefits and topics of my seminar. Click here.
I’ll leave you with this quote,” Most people accept mediocrity, and do what they are required to do, but successful people do a lot more.”
I do hope you join me in Las Vegas for a day of knowledge that will change your life.
Hi,
I agree with just about everything you have to say here, it’s super positive, empowering and inspiring. I like to think that I have been mindful of cultivating my skills as a hairstylist/artist/motivator and have honed and put into practice many of the things you have talked about. I do have a concern, though, and that is, I feel that salon owners have a tendency to hold their employees back sometimes even encouraging , I work in NY and the problem I find with this industry
Hi,
I agree with just about everything you have to say here, it’s super positive, empowering and inspiring. I like to think that I have been mindful of cultivating my skills as a hairstylist/artist/motivator and have honed and put into practice many of the things you have talked about. I do have a concern, though, and that is, I feel that salon owners have a tendency to hold their employees back sometimes even encouraging gossip and pettiness among employees. What can an employee do about a bad boss? It’s easy to say, you should look for another job, but no one wants to jump around, jobs aren’t easy to find in this economy and there just seems to be this sort of oppressive owner mentality. I feel I’m working harder than I have to and even though I’ve raised my prices, I’m making less?? Do you have any advice (short of opening your own salon) on how to keep your sanity, succeed and perhaps even thrive in a non supportive environment? I love my clientele but I’m really thinking twice about staying in this industry. Thanks for letting me vent. Any feedback would be greatly appreciated.
