I talk with many salon owners all over the world and one conversation that is constantly coming up these days is about the changing business models in the industry and that there is a shift towards more self-employed or individual contractors and that is happening in many countries.    There are lots of things driving these changes and I love seeing how some people see it as opportunities to start businesses that break the traditional mould.    My guest today on today's Podcast is one such person. Her name is Lacey Hunter Felton, she is co-founder of London based business ‘Hunter Collective’ and she is one of those entrepreneurs that is reinventing the traditional hairdressing business model.     In today’s podcast we will discuss:  What the ‘Hunter Collective’ is the gap it fills in the industry The future of co-working spaces in the salon industry …and  Balancing business with raising a family  And lots more!
