About the show

The Intentional Artistry Podcast was created by a hairstylist for hairstylists. IA is geared to helping stylists that feel like they need to work on their technical skills as well as their mindset behind the chair. The Intentional Artistry Podcast is a deeper dive into our industry from a hairstylist's perspective that has been in the industry for over 13 years. My intention and goal for Intentional Artistry is to help stylists believe in themselves and create their own version of success! If you're ready to level up, then you've come to the right place!

How To Sell Products Without The Ick Factor

Have you ever wondered how to sell products to your clients when you’re doing their hair? If you answered yes, then keep reading.Selling products isn’t a bad word or an icky thing. Especially when you are educating your clients on what they need and WHY they need them. Ultimately it is your client’s decision whether they buy or not and how much they buy. Before we continue, please like and save this post for later. It is NOT your responsibility to judge whether they can afford little or much. It is your responsibility to educate and to let them know what is available and leave the rest to them. My big tip:If you use products behind the chair, then please make sure that you are retailing the same products!!! When you are applying products then talk about them.Why you’re using it and how to use it. Let them see and hold each product. When you finish your appointment, take your client to the retail area and show them or pull all the products you used or the products the client mentioned they wanted and ask them if they want to take any of them home. That’s it! Simple and easy as that!

Episode 21: How do you create self motivation when you don't feel like it.

Today I'm sharing about self motivation. This topic came up during a conversation I was having over the weekend. It got me thinking about motivation and how you and I have to first believe it's (whatever you're aiming for) can be able to be achieved and that you are capable of doing it. You have to realize what types of things you are telling yourself in your subconscious and bring to light the things that don't work for you any longer. Self motivation is something that can be easy some days and harder other days. It can come from a deep place within. Sometimes it comes from hardship and when life is being a lemon and other days when you're making those lemons into lemonade. I hope this episode meets you where you are and always remember to refocus and realign with your why and that the small things that you're doing to move the needle matters.

Episode 20- First Impressions can either make or break a business.. here's why.

In today's episode we talk about how the first impression when someone walks through the door can potentially make or help to break your business if you own or manage it. This even applies to you if you are a customer yourself or work for a business. Having someone willing and able to make a positive and impactful connection with clients can have a lasting positive impression. It can also be a negative impression if the client/ customer feels like they're not seen or valued and you might potentially be losing money because of it. We talk all about it in this episode and some ways of how you can have good and positive interactions with your clients and a couple of things that you will want to avoid.
