5...be a more positive influence on my coworkers! Misery loves company and I want to be positive and keep a good attitude so I can help the lovely people around me. Hairdressers GIVE therapy but don't get it, I wanna help them beautify the world! —Crystal Collard
6...touch the lives of every person that sits in my chair. I will be advancing myself with education and listening to see how that person needs help either emotionally or outwardly to make them feel beautiful inside and out! I want to make them all shine and have an unforgettable experience! —Dorene Corliss

9...see each client with "fresh eyes," to see them as if they were new, first-time clients and look to add something fresh and new to their cut or color. It's so easy to get stale with long time clients, but if I look to change up something each time, it will keep me and them excited about their look, this should help continue to bring new clients. —Karen Snyder
10...continue learning new techniques, sell myself, hand out business cards, get those combo tickets, and leave a lasting impression on every client in my chair! —Shanna Snowden
