Booth Rent
Pro's- Make your own schedule, work with other independents, typically you get to pick out your own products, write off expenses.
Con's- no control of culture, design, and cleanliness of others, not legal in all states. You only get one chair. No double booking, a mish-mash of quality of work and ambiance since everyone is doing their own thing. May have only certain hours available, may have to find own education.
Suite
Pro's- Make your own schedule, design your own space, pick out your own products, create your own culture, brand, and guest experience, write off expenses.
Con's- You are the bottleneck. You will cap out how much you can physically do alone. You will wear all the hats (paying bills, making decisions, cleaning, laundry handling upset clients). If one chair is difficult to double book. Isolating and lonely when you enjoy the camaraderie of a team, challenging to get the education
Employee/commission
Pro's- no responsibility of bills, taxes, team atmosphere, possible benefits, support of leader and education
Con's- Someone else may be dictating your schedule, No control of the leadership, culture, products to use, or who is on your team.
Freelancer
Pro'- pick and choose your jobs, write off equipment.
Con's- Constant effort to network and find work. Inconsistent income. It's all about who you know.
Salon Owner
Pro's- opportunity to make a living showing others how to build a business behind the chair if a hairstylist wants to shift into a new career path within the industry but no longer physically doing hair. Opportunity to get into real estate. Option to booth rent and solely be a landlord or commission and choose a culture and brand you believe it.
Con's- costly start-up, challenging to find the team and keep them engaged, expensive operations, continual effort to create lead generation
Which is the right path for you? The one that you decide to go all in and stay focused on your strengths, dreams, and goals
Do your homework: Research what other salons are offering in your area and research how many booths rent and suite rental look like. Make time to think if changing your environment brings you more happiness or more problems/struggles.
The path you choose to be a success boils down to your-
Beliefs, attitude, behavior, and action
Whatever you do, give it your best, be in a state of gratitude and abundance.
Here is an activity to help you make a decision-
Reflect on 2021 and list out all the positive and negative aspects of your career, where you are, and your personal life. Next, I want you to cross it off anything on your list that you cannot change. What you will have left is areas where you can make changes in your life and career, and the areas that are crossed out is where you need to change your attitude
