Hi everyone! my name is Nikki and im a stylist at A-List salon off University Ave. I've been doing hair for over 15 yrs now. I'm always accepting new clients!

The salon is a very welcoming, warm, friendly environment where you can relax knowing you are always in good hands. The beauty industry is a bit of an obsession of mine and i'd love to welcome you to sit down and enjoy yourself in my chair. I specialize in blonding and extensions! Whatever your needs may be, i promise you the best service, and the most enjoyable experience! call and book your next appointment now!!

This took way too long to make.

It’s always in the details.

The way the stylist shows up.
The way the hair is finished.
The way the space feels.

You can always tell the difference.

You want the tea? 🫖☕️
It’s not even Tuesday but you bet I’ll be talking about this more in the future.

Real growth comes from:
•Leadership
•education
•accountability
•environment

The best stylists are chasing independence.

They’re choosing salons that make them better.

That’s the real level up. 🔥

No one talks about this part:

→ no mentorship
→ no structure
→ no guidance
→ no one pushing you when you plateau
→ no one to share expenses with

You’re expected to suddenly become:
a marketer, a leader, a financial planner, a receptionist, AND still slay all the hair.

And if you’re not ready?

You don’t grow…
you stay stuck.
You go broke.
You burn out.

The industry lied.

Booth rental was sold as the end goal—
freedom, more money, “being your own boss.”

But no one talks about what comes with it:
→ no mentorship
→ no structure
→ no real growth plan
→ no one pushing you when you plateau

And now?

Stylists are quietly coming back to commission salons.

I said the best salon owners are stylists…
but being good at hair doesn’t make you a great leader.

If you’re successfully running the show then you know what I mean.

If you’re not- then it’s time to find out.

Of course I’m happier. I upgraded my circle.

The real question you should be asking ?
- are you just filling chairs? Or building a team?

RIP to my 30’s. The real fun starts now. 🖤
