As a former instructor, one of my favorite things to do is educate the next generation of hair stylists! You will often see one of my associates working alongside me. My guests often joke they are getting the “Beyonce Treatment” when they have two people working on them at once. It definitely helps me stay on my toes and forces me to stay current in our quickly changing trends.
