YOUR HOST
I’ve spent 18 years in the bridal industry and built a hair and makeup business that has completed more than 1,000 weddings, managed more than 200 weddings in a single year and, at its peak, had a team of 15 artists.
Beauty and the Boss is where I talk about the business side of bridal — the part most of us were never taught when we learned how to do hair or makeup.
These aren’t conversations about simply getting busier. They’re about understanding the business underneath the bookings and making the work you already do financially worthwhile.
Follow Beauty and the Boss and listen whenever you need a little more business strategy with your bridal industry reality.
