Commission Salons, Commission Salon Owners, and Commission Employees get a bad rep. As a Commission Salon Owner, I’m a little offended by that so let's chat about how Salon Owners are evolving and moving away from the sleazy ways of the past. When you pull the curtain back on Commission Salon Ownership, there is A LOT that gets exposed. This episode is for anyone in the industry to relate with, gain a little insight from, and to hopefully have a great dialogue around.
