Client Testimonial
Van Micheal Salons - Atlanta GA
"It takes an exceptional consultant to move the needle for a salon of our size. Whereas most salon consultants we’ve worked with love to speak ambiguously and give mile-high blanket recommendations, Stef drills down and gives actionable deliverables catered to our individual needs. She was able to breathe new life into old systems and show us what was no longer working. In one year we have been able to hire 55 new interns."
— Lucas Council (Van Michael Salons)
" Stef has the uncanny ability to understand your businesses needs and then set a plan for successful execution. We can confidently say that she played a significant role in helping us save our business. She goes above and beyond for the team and truly cares about the success of our business. In just the first two years we hired 56 stylists working with Stef.
"Stef has been a resource, an encourager, a cheerleader of our brand, and her work with us has helped modernize our recruiting efforts and propel them to reach our goals. We attribute an influx of quality candidates and new guests to these initiatives.
"We’re a highly successful 40-year-old brand. We already have robust systems in place and the financial flexibility to have a full-time recruiter. It takes an exceptional consultant to move the needle for a salon of our size. She was able to breathe new life into old systems and show us what was no longer working and since starting our work we have hired 55 interns."

Salon Growth Made Easy—The Future Starts Now
You might not know this about me....
I'm obsessed with helping salon owners grow profitable businesses that they LOVE.
Why? Because I know how hard it is to do this work and it's 100x harder if you don't love it. (usually related to a team you don't love or the fact that money is tight)
Join me and my good friend and partner Jen Baudier in our weekly salon group coaching for just $99/month. It' s a place to connect, share, cry, laugh, and get brilliant business ideas from us and your peers.
