I’m a cosmetologist & have been behind the chair for 16 yrs. I adore my job and love all things hair. I absolutely adore my job and love doing all things hair.

I’m a licensed cosmetologist and have been behind the chair for 14 years. I am married with 2 almost grown mini adults, 3 very spoiled dogs and a lizard named Sushi. I love to spoil my dogs, read, crochet, sew, plant flowers, be outside in the sunshine be it warm or cold, watch softball, and spend quality time with my family. I love coffee, a good margarita, and bubbly waters, Mexican food is life. And chocolate. Welcome to my parlor.

Dear Clients,
Its official, I’ve made it a year in the new suite! This year has been so great, I could not have done it without all of you amazing clients of mine! You all are an uplifting positive spot in my days and I look forward to going in to work to see y’all! I have learned so much from you all and grown as a stylist this past year.

It can be tricky to control costs without compromising services. With that in mind and with what I’ve experienced this past year in our economy, I have decided to charge the client the credit card processing fee, which is 3.5% per swipe/dip/tap. To put this in perspective, a typical Womens visit is $50, so the fee would add on $1.75.
This is not a service charge, this is a fee that I have to charge in order to be able to accept all credit cards. The money from this fee goes directly to the CC company.

This is becoming more of the norm everywhere I go, nail salons, small business’s, restaurants, dentists and so on. So I’m sure this message doesn’t come as a surprise to you.

On top of this change, there will be a slight price change in just a handful of services. Changes that should have been made at the beginning of June last year, but wanted to put off as I was opening a new place. The service changes will be on women's cuts, mens cuts, and a couple of the colors and perms. For my pricing, you can check my website, lindsaysprague.glossgenius.com. If you have any questions or concerns, please don’t hesitate to reach out to me!
Again, thank you so much for your support and understanding in this!
Much love
Lindsay

👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼 for the ones in the back!

Preach it louder for the folks in the back, !⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
“•PRODUCT COSTS•⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
I spend thousands per month because I choose to use the best & most updated products for my clients.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Yes, there are cheaper professional products that I can use for my clients, but I choose the higher-end products that have a good reputation because, ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
quality over quantity.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
+ the new techniques require a lot of product, even on just one head of hair. For just one client, I tend to use about 1-3 different tubs of bleach, 1-5 different developers, 1-10 different colors/toners, a TON of foil, and other hair products & tool essentials depending on hair goals, length, density, & type of hair I am working with.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
With the beauty industry constantly evolving, there is always a new and improved product or technique coming out. So we are continually investing into our craft to better our services and stay updated with trends.⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
•ADDITIONAL EXPENSES•⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Expenses that come with being an independent stylist include, salon insurance, salon/booth rent (depending on the city/state you’re in, can be more expensive), continued education, licensing fees, booking websites, marketing, taxes (taxes can be VERY expensive especially if you’re a sole proprietor. I personally suggest changing to an LLC), we have to take care of our retirement plan, life insurance, disability insurance, health insurance, etc. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
Most stylists price their services based on their supply & demand. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
If a particular stylist doesn’t fit within your budget, that’s okay! There are so many amazing stylists with different price ranges for everyone’s budget🤍”⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀
