“The definition of a tightrope is a tightly stretched piece of rope on which someone balances and performs tricks in a circus.
The definition of a salon tightrope in 2021: balancing being a busy salon owner with all the added demands and business worries that the pandemic has caused as well as maintaining creativity, keeping your team motivated and making your clients look and feel good! This is the huge challenge faced by all salons at the moment and is something that is touched upon in the Hooker & Young In Conversation with Rainbow Room’s Suzie McGill and Dylan Brittain in this month’s interview on page 9. Like a tightrope – every salon owner and stylist is feeling stretched at the moment – in business and in many other ways. Keeping on top of the new normal day to day running of a salon, the demands of lockdown-fatigued clients and ensuring a happy and motivated team is a tough balancing act. We hope our diverse range of articles from business experts and successful salon owners (who themselves are experiencing the same challenges as you) will help in some way as you keep your balance over the next few months.”
