  • Real and Raw

    I absolutely love listening to Lacey‘s podcast. As a salon owner, who is looking for ways to level up and also take good care of her team, while also being a present mom and partner, it can feel really lonely sometimes. We have so much on our plates as high achievers, and Lacey always comes in with a fresh perspective and great advice and pep-talks 💜

  • Great podcast

    I love Lacey and her podcast and AU has helped me be a better salon owner. I appreciate her openness and candidness when it comes to being a salon owner. It can be a grueling, lonely, brutiful career path. I really enjoy hearing her perspective and her honesty.

  • Consider this my exit survey

    This is why you lost 9 stylists (actually more).. Genuinely disappointed that this is how you wanted to say your final words to us. We didn’t leave for the trendy salons, we left because we could see through your character.

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Stylist Messed Up the Color. Who Pays for the Fix?
Q: If a commission stylist makes a mistake and the client wants a redo with a different stylist, how should the salon handle commission?
Lacey recommends having the original stylist perform the adjustment for product cost only, without a second commission. If the client insists on another stylist, the client should pay full price and that stylist should earn full commission. She advises against clawing back earned commission, splitting it, or paying commission out of pocket.

Q: What would you say to a brand new mom who feels like she's drowning?
It's okay to take a break from your career to focus on parenting, and don't feel guilty for it. You can always return to your career later on.
Trials, Triumphs & Tiny Hands — Salon Owners on Motherhood & Business Episode 4: Raising Teens & Building Dreams with Sybil Manahan
Q: What is your biggest piece of advice for someone like me to teach your kids to be independent, self-sufficient, have a loving heart, and just be like a good human?
You have to just teach them what is important to you and hope that some of it sticks. Give yourself grace if you don't see the immediate results, and remember that it's important to have more adult conversations with them.

Q: Have you ever thought about quitting to be a stay at home mom?
I've never wanted to be a stay at home mom exclusively, as I have a passion for running a business and the community.
