The global salon services market is valued at over $201 billion according to 2021’s statistics. This means that it’s a business where millions of people are working in servicing billions of people. It’s only natural that not everyone has the necessary knowledge or talent and mistakes are being made. Unfortunately, these mistakes cost people not only money but also their healthy state of mind.
