Please stop sharing IBE in online forums!!

Stylists it’s come to my attention that some IBE stylists are sharing IBE technique information with Habit stylists in their online Haircation forum. Let me remind you only once, that is against the NDA you signed and you may be held legally accountable for sharing and disclosing that info. By sharing IBE technique, you are undermining each and every stylist, including yourself! You are cheapening your investment and cutting down this brand. It’s unfortunate I’d even have to say this. I do everything I can to protect you guys and what we’ve built but my legal team is not happy with what’s going on in these forums and is wanting to pursue damages which is quite extensive given how many members Habit has on haircation. If it comes up in online forums or anywhere else, of course you can share that you love it and it works for you behind the chair (if you feel that way.) But when it comes to specific differences or how it’s done, that’s when I suggest you 🤐

I am on haircation I was afraid that was going to happen. The stylists try to pry other stylist wanting to know what makes IBE so special. The thing is is Habit is not super private they don’t care who learns their method or teaches it. So the stylist don’t think a thing about asking or are aware that we sign a privacy agreement until we make them aware. They think it’s stupid. There is always someone wanting something for nothing, we have to know how to protect our investment and handle the moochers. I will say I saw a couple of IBE stylist tell the inquiring minds we signed a privacy agreement.

This really sucks! I feel that if they were the creator and had put in the effort that McKenzie has they would realize the errors of their ways. Have McKenzie’s back.

Absolutely. There was a huge aggressive debate over there the other day 🙄

Also- thank you so much for standing up for your method so much. ❤️

I have had a few people ask me about it. One who does my hair extensions. She is jz styles certified and I told her she could take the course. She then sent me the post jz styles made about their new method which looks like IBE from a distance but we all know it isn’t. People always want to know something and not invest in their education. I’m gonna be snatching some weave if I come across someone doing this. This is my favorite thing I’ve invested in and Mackenzie trained us like no other, and I have worked hard. You get none of that

Yeah I’m certified in JZ too and she’s coming out with a hidden bead method soon.

That is really disappointing. We all work hard to be certified and master this craft! I love how there’s a roster and we all know who is around us certified. That is BS! Don’t share!

I’m just catching up on posts. Anyhow. I want to add that on your Instagram stories to be careful when people are helping video you doing the method. Make sure you aren’t revealing anything. I’ve taught my assistants to only video certain times. 💋
