Well gang the reports are in for 2008 . It seems the entire hair dressing industry is off on service sales by about 35 % , and product sales is even worse at 42 % off for the last two months of 2008 . This is a huge burden for us as cosmetologists to bare . When you are use to making a fairly decent living and then all of a sudden your making close to minimum wage , IT HURTS . My sympathies are with all of you as I know personally as a licensed California hairdresser that these are tuff times and they don't seem to be getting any better .
In times like these we must figure out different approaches to our business .
I personally am doing much more bartering for my services right now then ever before . A hair cut for a massage , or a hair coloring for a teeth cleaning . There are lots of things we can trade our services for,its always good to ask someone if there interested in bartering for your services if you want what they have to offer .I just did a hair coloring on my landlords wife for partial rent !
all we can do is tuff it out . My advice ? pull up a chair , crack open a brew , were going to be here for a while .
