Hey friend!
Welcome to Cosmetology Grad School!
This blog is a safe place where Cosmetologists can find resources, guides, and advice on how to grow their beauty business and confidence behind the chair.
I help hairstylists determine which salon is right for them and teach them how to define their target market clients and how to attract them to their chairs.
I help hairstylists grow their local awareness by implementing excellent marketing and local networking strategies.
I show hairstylists how to set up all of their social media platforms so that those dream clients discover them and make the decision to book an appointment.
I also teach hairstylists how to build the back end of a successful beauty business.
Here at Cosmetology Grad School, you will find educational blog posts on the following topics:
-
growing your confidence in business
-
how to gain more of the right type of client
-
beauty business education
-
how to set personal and professional boundaries
-
motivation and inspiration
-
how to implement changes in your business
You will also find detailed visuals and guides so that you have a clear picture of what is being taught.
Sometimes, you will find a blog post on a hair product or a tool review for the simple fact that I love all things beauty and hair, and I have to let the world know my thoughts!
We discuss how to deal with the feelings of inadequacy,
discouragement, overwhelm, and boundaries.
If you have ever felt like that, I was once in your shoes.
We are all a work in progress.
Let me show you how to build and retain a clientele, establish essential business and marketing skills, and gain confidence, all while loving what you do.
You can grab my FREE Guide on gaining new clients here!
My Background in Cosmetology
I attended Denham Springs Beauty College, and I have nearly 20 years of experience in the beauty industry.
I made a few mistakes, and that is why I am here: to help others avoid making the same mistakes.
I used to borrow money to pay my booth rent and put my color order on credit because I wasn't making any profit. My business was just about drowning!
After some coaching, I turned my business from barely surviving to thriving! I nearly doubled my income in 3 years, even during a global pandemic.
I no longer allowed clients to walk all over me. I learned how to market myself and confidently raised my prices every year!
A Few Fun Things About Me...
I'm a Cosmetologist living in Louisiana.
My husband and I have two children and two dogs.
As a family, we like to go camping, ride our off-road vehicles, and take the occasional kayak trip.
I am obsessed with coffee and true crime, and I am a Netflix documentary fanatic.
I love to visit breweries in different cities, and I have a thing for abandoned places.
I live by the motto: Community over competition.
I'd love to connect with you and support you.
