Founder & Operator
This started as a hobby, but once I noticed how many friends were walking around with bad haircuts, the demand clicked and I turned it into a real business. I handled everything: client acquisition, pricing, scheduling, payments, and follow-up. An Excel-based booking and client system pushed retention to ~85% and let referrals run on autopilot. By the time I wrapped up to focus on school, I had served 50+ clients across 350+ appointments and generated over $7,000 in revenue. The biggest lesson: the scariest part of starting something is just starting.
