Seven steps get you to yes!

  • Style Tips

This is the time to get positive by learning when saying no means saying yes to you. Often, it’s as simple as being aware and present. Here are seven steps to living and working toward happiness, fulfillment and success.

1. Say yes to delighting your clients and building your clientele by saying no to bad habits. Focus 100% of each appointment on your client. Don’t check your phone. Do a thorough consultation as if every guest is sitting in your chair for the first time. Then, get agreement on what your recommended services and products will cost up front.

2. Say yes to working on your business and creativity by saying no to packing every second of your day with clients. Start by booking out one 20-minute segment—not counting lunch—per day to work ON your business every day. Do not use that time to catch up client appointments. If that seems like too much, start with three 30-minute slots per week. During that time, you can update your social media, take classes from Cosmetologists Chicago to help you grow your business and meet with your DSC or store consultant to see what new programs and products your distributor offers that might save you money or help you work more efficiently. Network with someone who has already achieved something you would like to accomplish, watch a video with a new business practice or hair color technique and practice that technique on a mannequin.

3. Say yes to your future financial security by saying no to practices that can lead to living on tips. Are you charging what your services are worth? Are you recommending maintenance products? Do you suggest additional services and treatments? Is your salon operating legally in regard to licensing, labor laws and taxes? Those are all important questions to examine.

4. Say yes to education, so you can say no to self-doubt. Fuel your confidence with education and practice in both technical and business techniques. Try them on a model or mannequin, and once you’re happy with the result, post your work on social media to market your services.

5. Say yes to your comfort by saying no to standing all day without the proper support. A quality salon mat and comfortable shoes are two important keys to career longevity. You can’t offer your best creativity to your clients when your back and legs hurt all day.

6. Say yes to keeping a journal. List just three things that you want to say no to. Write down the benefits of stopping those three things. Then write down how you will feel when you accomplish your goals. Keep track for a month and see how you feel at the end of those 30 days. Adjust accordingly.

7. Say yes to attending America's Beauty Show in September in Rosemont, IL. Purchase all three days and receive tickets to the show in Spring 2022. Registration opens soon. Watch for details. 

America’s Beauty Show registration will be open soon! Please save the dates, September 11-13, 2021, when ABS moves back to Rosemont, IL and get ready for the beauty industry family reunion! For additional questions, email info@americasbeautyshow.com or call 800-648-2505.
