WE ASKED INDUSTRY LEADERS TO TALK ABOUT WHAT TECHNOLOGICAL AND INDUSTRY TRENDS THEY SEE ON THE HORIZON AND HOW THEY THINK THESE CHANGES AND INNOVATIONS WILL SHAPE OUR WAY OF DOING BUSINESS IN THE FUTURE.

Technology in the Salon Industry with Matthew McGuire from Milady

“Continuing education opportunities continue to shift toward being web-based and folks are clamoring for more.  Education is paramount to continued success and, in many cases, required to maintain licensure.  With an abundance of resources available, and as technology and the accessibility to education grows, we believe it could lead to a higher standard of expectation from salon owners.  While learning from a YouTube video definitely has its benefits, the existence of routine assessments, building on advanced cutting concepts, and increasing overall business acumen could make the difference between being a part of the industry and excelling in this industry.”
