24. Grieving Behind The Chair

Get ready for a heartfelt chat as we dive into the world of hairdressing and how stylists handle grief while keeping up their professional game. We share personal tales of loss, touching on the tricky balance between emotions and work. We dish on the industry's lack of support during tough times, stressing the need for both financial prep and emotional cheerleading.

We read a post that Hayley put out to ask her followers about their struggles with grief, how it affected them and how they dealt with the situation. The most common answer that came up was rushing back to the salon before we were ready. But it's not just about the challenges; we're also here to offer solutions. Join us as we discuss the importance of creating a contingency plan for unexpected moments of grief or needing time away from the chair. Whether it's setting aside funds for emergencies or establishing a network of support, we'll share practical tips to help you navigate through difficult times in the lively world of hairdressing.
