Hello everyone I am pretty new to salon geek so do excuse me if this post appears in a strange place however....
This is my story and slight issue.....
I am 19 and have worked in a salon for four years, at first it was part time evening and Saturday girl whilst I did my schooling and then I recently completed my hairdressing apprenticeship, next week I am starting self employed renting a chair at the salon, I have had days where I have felt really confident an others where I feel so so nervous about not having that set wage every week! I have bought all my stock etc and I have a client base of around 20-30 which I know isn't a lot but I keep telling myself if I don't start now I never will and that you have to take a risk if you ever want to get anywhere, I lost my dad earlier this year and I know he will be so proud of me, I'm just struggling to keep telling myself its all going to be fine when everyone else at the salon keeps putting a downer on it, I've put a few business plans in place and I've started a pamper package which I have a booking for etc, I'm willing to put the work in.. I just wondered if anyone had some words of advice from their experience as to how starting up alone went for them thanks on advance xx
