Just think of it.....there's a whole generation of people who've grown up since the 80's knowing nothing other than Asian salons & their mode of business. I'm sure others get comments like this too, when you meet people out socially & you tell them what you do....their first response is "Wow! You're not Asian?!".
Word of mouth has been THE best form of advertising from me when it comes to gaining salon clients & the number 1 draw is sanitation, followed closely behind by not rushing my services, & lastly my clients enjoy having an appointment. Not everyone will like my business mode, but then again I don't need everyone to be my client. Just the select ones!
