Human Trafficking Awareness for Salon Professionals

August 6, 2019 By Ivy Hultquist Leave a Comment


I was washing my hands at the gas station and looked up at the corner of the mirror. A sticker with “Text BeFree” caught my eye. Chances are, you have seen it too. You might wonder why this is important to you as a cosmetologist, esthetician, or nail tech.

BeFree is a human trafficking hotline that can save lives. In California, a 14-year-old girl was able to save herself and two others by texting a crisis hotline and giving out her location. This led to the arrest of three traffickers in a sex trafficking ring.

In June, Florida took one big step this summer to help trafficking victims in a number of other ways. Governor DeSantis signed House Bill 851 to combat human trafficking. Currently, Florida ranks as the third-highest human trafficking destination in the country. This includes both labor and sex trafficking. The effective date of this Law was 7/1/2019.

Tips for Dealing With “No-Shows” in Your Salon

July 1, 2019 By Ivy Hultquist Leave a Comment

You glance at the clock. The client’s appointment was supposed to begin ten minutes ago. Are they coming? Should you call or text them just to see if they will be late (and throw off the rest of your day)? What about the missed income if they do not show?

Twenty minutes go by and nothing.

You take a deep breath and mark them down as a no-show.

Whether you are an independent booth renter or a salon owner, it can be so frustrating, disruptive, and sometimes infuriating when a client doesn’t show up.

Believe it or not, clients are not trying to ruin your day, business, or life by missing their appointment (even though it feels like it sometimes). Today, everyone (including your clients), live extremely busy and hectic lives. When too many tabs are open, things are bound to be missed and forgotten. This no-show issue is not a problem totally out of your control.

Thankfully, there are things you can do to help minimize the inconvenience and negative business impact a no-show creates.
