Now the online shopping has come into play. Selling lotions up to 85% off. You cannot fight it. I do feel we need to get back to what we used to do. Love Working With PEOPLE.

You are trying to compete with a salon that's going under. Of course you can't compete. No one can. No one should try.

Just wait till they are out of business and then you win.

No, I am not trying to compete. I just want to love working with people again. I don't feel like I used to feel about our industry. What I guess I was trying to say it is a very cut throat business and it was never like that before. Chains, Manufacturers who sell to the Chains and then sell to us knowing they will be putting a salon across from you need to be GONE. GONE IS SAY. HA HA HA OR IS IT He he he. I'm just being silly
