Tune in to hear Vonetta share how to navigate the early days of your career and handle moving to a new area, and starting all over.
Key Takeaways
Embrace mentorship for invaluable guidance and support on your hair styling journey, especially when you face challenges caused by a lack of support from your circle.
Overcoming financial challenges starts with mastering the basics. Focus on your foundational skills for long-term success.
Apprenticeships offer a great opportunity to learn and sharpen skills through hands-on experience and guidance. They also allow you to build a strong clientele.
Taking the time further to develop your craft and customer service skills after school can set a solid foundation for success, rather than rushing into working in a salon, suite, or booth rental.
Opt for positive environments instead of the break room; use slower times as opportunities to work on improving your skills and turning potential downtime into productive growth.
While building a clientele, diversifying your work experience early in your career can accelerate your learning and open doors to exciting opportunities and financial rewards.
