Hiring’s only half the job—keeping the right team is where your real leadership shows.

Here are 10 essentials every salon owner should keep in mind:

1. Be crystal clear on the role and the kind of person you need.

2. Set expectations early: job duties, pay, and support.

3. Care personally—people are not just tools.

4. Motivate and communicate consistently.

5. Share your long-term vision—they’re part of it.

6. When mistakes happen (and they will), guide and move on.

7. Praise often—it goes further than you think.

8. Set achievable targets—realistic wins keep momentum.

9. Lead by example—your standards set the tone.

10. You're their leader, not their mate—professional respect matters.

Great teams don’t happen by accident. They’re built with intention, consistency, and clarity.
