I was privileged enough to have lunch with a brilliant friend of mine. He told me that Stylist don’t like to sell products because they feel like it cheapens their art and their client’s experience.
Well that sucks for me, seeing as I sell Salon Professional Products.
We started discussing the Stylist ramifications of not selling high quality products. We likened it to creating a painting and not putting UV glass over the painting when framed, or allowing your favorite color t-shirt be washed with regular or generic detergent.
When a great cut is not styled properly or color is not cared for… not only does the client look bad but the stylist looks bad as well.
The absolute best marketing is a referral. I refer business to Bentley Salon (a Screen Salon) that I go to in all the time in Tampa. From their services and the “extension of their service” to the use of Screen, the highest quality products, the salon make my hair beautiful and healthy.
Not selling a product that will make your styles more marketable to others is just bad business, and more importantly disrespecting your art.
