Winters in the Midwest are rough even without extra snowfall and subzero temperatures. But this winter, I’m sure we can all agree, has been more brutal than usual. As Snowpocalypse 2014 rolled in even before January, and negative temps and bitter cold wind chills soon followed, most of us were ready for warmer weather weeks […]

One of the unique things about One Salon is the schedule flexibility we provide our designers. Most salons are very rigid. Designers have to work a certain schedule, on certain days, with no exception. And, for the most part, salons frown on part-time designers and rarely hire them.

My philosophy as a marketing honcho has always been…’It doesn’t matter what kind of business you’re in, I can market it.

Over the past 3 years, as general manager of One Salon, I’ve learned a ton about the beauty industry. ‘Roots’ are now referred to as ‘new growth”.
