KEY TAKEAWAYS:

  • Growing up in a salon, going to university, and coming full circle back to the salon to own, manage, and coach stylists is Krystines Story
  • HIRING A COACH? Make sure you understand the difference between a certified coach and an experience based coach. Certified coaches are specially trained in communication that you may not get from an experience based coach. KNOW YOUR COACH AND THEIR BACKGROUND
  • Coaches DO NOT ADVISE on course of action, that is advising and consulting.
  • Coaches DO NOT TELL YOU WHAT TO DO and they ARE NOT THERAPY.
  • Therapists focus on your past & a COACH focuses on today
  • Coaches help us identify goals and hold us accountable for taking the steps and, when we do not, they help us understand why.
  • Almost all of the time, we are our biggest roadblocks to our own success. Coaches help us understand this and figure out a way to work on ourselves to set us up for success in tackling our goals
  • Consulting is not Coaching, but Coaching may include consulting.

Robert Hughes

“I THINK HAIRSTYLISTS ARE THE COOLEST, NICEST, AND MOST FUN GROUP OF PEOPLE ON THE PLANET! I AM PASSIONATE ABOUT USHERING IN AN EMPOWERED-STYLIST FUTURE, AND I ABSOLUTELY LOVE GETTING STYLISTS FROM ALL WALKS OF LIFE TOGETHER IN A NON-COMPETITIVE ENVIRONMENT WHERE WE CAN LEARN, LAUGH, AND GROW TOGETHER.”
-Said by ME!
Robert started his hair journey as a kid in rural America offering haircuts on the street to kids in the neighborhood, not realizing, one day, he would find himself working the front desk at a hair salon while in high school. From there, his experience from salon-to-salon has included the front of the house, back of the house, stylist, educator, and consultant. It was during this movement through various salons he developed a passion to empower stylists and educate owners on how to raise the industry standard of excellence, mutual respect, and professionalism amongst stylists, managers, owners, and clients. Robert currently is the General Manager and a Master Stylist at Violet Salon in Georgetown, DC.
