"Owners need their time back - so they can build the business, create more jobs, and realize their vision. They can only do that if the stylist education is well and truly covered. That's what I'm here for."
-- Chris Baran, Multiple NAHA Winner and World Renowned Educator for 40+ Years

The Training Trap
Most salons suffer from an endless cycle – they hire, they train as well as they can with limited time, and the best stylists leave because they don’t feel they’re going anywhere. Rinse and repeat. Owners feel trapped between their chair and training new staff with no end in sight. They know they need help training, but trust and cost have always been intimidating.

The Little Voices in Your Head
The Little Voices in Your Head
HIRING THE RIGHT PEOPLE IS HARD
Never mind hiring someone with skill – it’s so hard to hire people that are a good fit for THIS salon!
FINDING TIME TO TRAIN IS HARD
Who has time for a proper training program these days? We cover the basics and pick the rest up as we go.
KEEPING STANDARDS IS HARD
Every stylist in the salon should be working to the same gold standard, but without standard training that’s not happening.
SEEING THEM LEAVE IS HARD
I spend a ton of money and time on my people and it’s crushing when they leave for some other opportunity.
STEPPING AWAY FROM THE CHAIR IS HARD
Margins are already tight enough without losing the revenue that I bring in behind the chair.
AFFORDING HELP IS HARD
I know we need a better education plan, but we can’t afford to pay an education manager so I’m doing my best.
The Fact Is
you will keep getting the same result.
There's no reason to expect things will improve
unless you change something:
1. Spend less time behind your chair?
2. Hand over the training to someone else?
3. Train the whole team to meet gold standards every time?
4. Bring in a new training system?
5. All of the above.

Group Leaders can track the progress of your associates through the program in real time. You’ll know if someone is struggling with a quiz, or if they’re ready for Assessment. It’s all in the Help Guide for Teams
Most associates in other salons spend 6-12 months apprenticing. We applied more than 40 years of world-class training experience to create this program. Our associates are covering support services in two weeks and taking their own clients with confidence in 3 months.
It’s true. By the time they’re done the Jump Start, they’re confident with support services like color retouching, virgin color applications, shampoo, blow dry, and irons. Then we deliver principle-based design and finishing skills they can practice on their own time — which is free time for you. And faster than you dreamed possible you will be confident they are ready for clients.
Well, if we’re being honest, it’s a lot faster than that. As soon as they’re taking tasks over from your other stylists, you’ve got more time available for selling more services. And the more tasks they take over…
This is where the gotcha usually goes, right? Nope. We over-delivered like crazy. So aside from making sure you have a couple mannequin heads for each associate… I don’t know, what are your hobbies?
