  • Episode 23: Getting Rid of Your Product Deductions
    Nov 28 2025

    In this episode, we’re unpacking one of the salon industry’s most debated topics: product deductions. Are they fair? Are they outdated? And most importantly - is there a better way?

    We dig into what “fair” actually looks like when it comes to charging for color. Spoiler: it’s not a flat fee, it’s not a guess, and it’s definitely not coming out of a stylist’s paycheck.

    Join us as we break down:

    • Why product deductions cause confusion and frustration
    • The difference between charging fairly and charging blindly
    • How usage-based pricing protects both stylists and clients
    • The simple mindset shift that changes everything about salon profitability

    If you’re ready to ditch deductions, embrace transparency, and price services with confidence, this episode is your new must-listen.
