Esthetician student here that’s considering opening up a home salon when I’m certified! This might be a very simple question but I’m not that knowledgeable in retail just yet. How does selling retail work? Do you make your own products? Do you have to partner up with a company in order to sell products? Loved your video- very beautiful space! 💕
@GlamGirlGabi3 жыл бұрын
Hey Erin! Having a home business is awesome in our industry. I bet you will love it! As for retail, you can purchase products wholesale at your supplier and then double the cost and retail it. You can also contact companies (for example, I often order directly from KMS), make a wholesale order, double your cost and retail it that way.
@lf93412 жыл бұрын
You just double the price and add sales tax . When you have a business license you can buy products you will sell without tax. In the old days people may have tripled the price...now you cannot have clients pay more if something sells at sephora or amazon. For example, we sell olaplex. It costs me $14 for a shampoo, so I sell it for $28 plus tax ( since that is what it retails for)because I have to pay sales tax at the end of the month to the state. We also sell davines which I order and we pay for shipping.

I’m in Texas and want to open a hair salon in my home. Iv read the rules and regulations and it’s seems it’s not legal to do any kind of color services at home? It’s kind of hard to understand … do you know if this is true? How do I find out for sure? Call TDLR? I’m just confused 🤷🏼♀️

I've had my in home salon for 12 years and bored with organization around the station. I'd love to see how you organize towels, shears, capes, brushes and styling products near your workspace. Also when booking clients I normally do text 98% of the time. I no longer work on weekends just in-between carpool times Monday through Friday. Do you allow yourself an hour a day for booking or moving clients around in your work hours or outside that time frame? My kids get so tired of me on my phone all the time. I explain I'm not looking at shoes or Instagram hair, I'm booking appointments and normally have 80 at one time I'm trying to juggle. I'm no longer taking new clients and insisting on having prebooking clients only. I always give in because money is always to be made. Unfortunately my self care and my home isn't where I'd love it to be. Struggling a bit. I love learning from others. I'd love yours or others opinion. Thanks.

I would say no simply because the customer is always priority because they are paying for a service. It is best to either find someone that you car pools with ( you do morning and they do afternoon) they go to daycare for a little while or just not have the appointment at the times you're needed as a mother

I am sure she meant to say that she would schedule around picking her kids up, leaving time to allow for that before the next client will be getting there.
