In this episode, Nina dives deeper into a recent Reel they shared on the connection between your salon brand, your salon experiences, and your salon prices.

When your salon prices are out of alignment with the experience you deliver, that’s where you may struggle. We also talk about the importance of context when absorbing content on the socials about your salon pricing. The Reel mentioned in this episode can be found here.

In this episode, Nina revisits a conversation around our collective loss of perspective as an industry thanks to the algorithms on social media feeding into our fears and insecurities by amplifying the most enraging pieces of content. Remember, your content is your marketing, and what you choose to engage with online has a direct impact on your salon business and brand. And when you choose to engage, you are feeding these ridiculous narratives about our industry and causing harm to your nervous system, mental wellness, and salon business. Nina also shares a few tools to help you stay focused on what matters, and less on what doesn’t. You can find us on the web here, and on the socials here and here.
