N ot a m e m b e r ? J o i n at a s so c iate d h a i rp rofe s sio n a ls .c o m 51 BS: Looking at my industry, it's totally different from when I first started. I feel like a lot of stylists want to be on their own instead of being on a team. This is so interesting to me. I would love to instill that old-school, tight-knit team in my business, but keep it intimate. I miss the camaraderie and having someone to bounce ideas off. I'm looking for a co- stylist right now. I want to share all the struggles I went through so they don't have to go through them, and so they can go and be a six-figure stylist 1–2 years after they're out of school. I would love to start passing the baton. IS: Besides looking for a co- stylist, what else do you have on the horizon for your business? BS: I want to teach my co-stylist everything I know—paying for their extension education and making sure they know how to master it. I also want to teach them to master what their skills are, whether it's color, extensions, or something else. I also signed up for a business course. I've been learning so much about branding, marketing, and business credit building. IS: Thank you for sharing your story with us in your winning Indie Stylist of the Year entry. BS: It's really such an honor. I think it's important for people to hear each other's stories. I'm so excited that my story made an impact enough to win an award like this. It's OK to like what I like and do what I do. If I stay in my own lane and excel there, that's important. " "
