Do you all have the salon you work at order the hair and cut them in on the profits or do you order the hair yourself and get the profits? Also if you order the hair yourself do you tell your salon owner we how much it is before you increase the price? Please explain this process for me I might encounter issues in the future in my salon I invested in this class myself and continue to invest myself.

I’m in a commission salon and paid for all this myself too. I have done the first few installs for the cost of hair only to gain more confidence so I have gotten the hair for those. We have decided the salon will pay for the hair and all materials going forward. The hair will basically be like a retail item so I will make 20% off the profit of that. Then my installs and move ups will be 60% instead of 50%.
At our salon we order the hair for our commission stylists and they also get a cut of the profits. But that’s us. It’s 💯 up to the salon and how the owner likes to do things. If you ever decide to move salons I would interview several with a list of your must haves and if they can’t accommodate you, it’s not your salon home. You’re right, you invested in the class and any salon would be lucky to have you. 💜
We are a hybrid salon where we offer provide retail and color but our stylists are lease. They by their own hair. I have one girl who does struggle with buying her hair so a lot of times I do it for her. I charge her per pack what I pay +shipping. She keeps all profit.
