Thriving Stylist Podcast

The beauty industry has changed dramatically in the last 10 years. The days of hoping your good reputation and referrals was enough to grow or maintain your clientele died out and successful stylists today need a real marketing strategy. It's actually never been easier to grow a clientele as a hair stylist or a business as a salon owner, yet stylists are giving up or struggling more often than they are thriving in this incredible industry. When I was first building my clientele, I realized immediately that nobody was teaching true business skills and long term strategies to stylists or salon owners. What good is a license and an entrepreneurial passion without the skills and knowledge to actually make big things happen? The Thriving Stylist podcast is a collection of interviews from super successful but not yet famous stylists, one-on-one coaching opportunities and actionable, strategic marketing techniques that you can use in your business today to see real results. I'm Britt Seva, Social Media & Marketing Strategist for Hair Stylists and I look forward to helping you to create a wealthy life as a stylist.

    Is "shrinkflation" a good fit for your business as a stylist?

    “Shrinkflation” isn’t a new phenomenon, and you’re most likely experiencing it right now in your day-to-day experiences as a consumer. We are in a tight economic spot at the moment and service-based industries have had many challenges in the economic downturn, so I believe this is a relevant conversation to be having right now for stylists.  In this episode, I reveal the good, the bad and the ugly when it comes to shrinkflation and how it all applies to our industry, and I share what will help you determine if a similar strategy is a good fit for your business!  Do you have a question for me that you’d like answered in a future episode like this one?

    Is the extensions bubble about to burst?

    The hair extension industry has seen a meteoric rise in popularity, driven by social media and influencer culture. While early adopters reaped the rewards of high demand and low competition, the market has since become saturated with stylists. This has led to concerns about quality and customer satisfaction. So, is the extensions bubble about to burst or not?  If you currently offer hair extensions in your salon, or you’re thinking of adding the service, you may be asking yourself this very question. In this episode, I break it all down and share the data and insights to help you determine if the market for extensions is oversaturated, or if there is a golden opportunity for you to succeed in it!   Do you have a question for me that you’d like answered in a future episode like this one?

    Quick question mashup: You ask, I answer

    I absolutely love reading the ratings and reviews we get on Apple Podcasts, and I read them every single week. In fact, a lot of the questions that get asked there I use for my podcast episode ideas, but I can't always get to all of them or some I can't make an entire podcast episode on. In today’s episode, I thought it would be fun to try something different and turn some of those questions into a quick question mashup to get some of these questions answered for you. So, if you like this style and format for the podcast, make sure to let me know so I can bring you more of this type of content!  Do you have a question for me that you’d like answered in a future episode like this one?

    Social media marketing, business growth, economics and consumer behavior are things that I am deeply interested in and obsess over, and this episode touches on all these topics as I talk about building a thriving social media presence.

    TikTok study:A client’s take on prices, search and services...

    Recently, there’s been a surge in viral TikTok videos and Instagram Reels where clients are speaking out against the beauty industry, particularly targeting hair stylists. In this episode, I take a closer look at one TikTok user’s perspective and how (and why) her content is resonating with both clients and stylists alike. Instead of getting defensive, it’s crucial to understand that these opinions reflect the mindset of a significant portion of today’s consumers. By embracing this alternative viewpoint, we can uncover valuable insights that will help us improve how we serve our clients and grow our businesses. As an industry, I feel that we need to get back to the art of customer service. As you know, it’s a fast-changing landscape, which is why I want to continue discussing the key shifts we’ll need to make in order to stay ahead, thrive, and meet the evolving expectations of our clients!  Do you have a question for me that you’d like answered in a future episode?
