When you’re a small business owner, the marketplace can sometimes seem like a desert: desolate, dry, and a little unfriendly. It’s hard to build a client base, and marketing isn’t as straightforward as we all wish. Salon owners, though, have it a little easier. What salon owners sell is confidence itself. People want to look good, because when they look good, they feel great.
To say your salon’s services sell themselves might be a bit of a stretch, but you have an advantage, and the groundwork is already laid out before you by scores of other salon owners and marketing professionals who have been there, done that, and came back with...

Nail art trends have come a long way and the effects can be amazing, but one thing’s for certain -- the French manicure is timeless, and it’s definitely not going anywhere. Contrary to what you may think, the French manicure was first coined in America, not France, by Jeff Pink in 1970s Hollywood.
