This book serves as the literary equivalent of a kick in the ass and a punch to the throat. The vast majority of these lessons aren’t taught in schools and don’t appear in textbooks; they’re learned through painful (and often expensive) experiences.
I wrote this book to save you. It contains everything you need to know to survive and succeed in the professional beauty industry, including how to:
• Recognize lying and scamming salon owners
• Avoid abusive employment arrangements
• Identify and reject exploitative contracts
• Secure a job before you even graduate
• Become the kind of professional salon owners
fight over
• Build a portfolio
• Attract and retain clients
• Establish an impressive online presence
• Run your own microsalon business
• Preserve your health and build your wealth
…and so much more.
The Beauty Industry Survival Guide will help you navigate this tumultuous business. The waters run deep, the currents are swift, and the tides shift quickly. The journey can certainly be treacherous, and you’ll need all the help you can get.

All downloads are delivered in a .ZIP (compressed) file .
A .ZIP folder is like a digital cardboard box containing all of your virtual products. Like any other shipment you receive, you’ll have to open the box! To do that, you’ll have to “extract” the contents.
If your phone/tablet does not have this capability, there are apps you can download to extract contents from zip files, but for best results, download the files on a laptop or desktop computer, extract the files there, and then send them to your mobile devices if you like to read on the go. (If you attempt to access a zip folder on a mobile device that doesn’t know what a zip folder is, you’ll get a screen full of random jibberish, which is pretty in its own way, but definitely not useful.)

I highly recommend not attempting to edit spreadsheets on displays smaller than a 15-inch tablet.
(Things get very tiny and very easy to mess up.)
If your phone/tablet does not have the ability to decompress or extract contents from zip files, there are plenty of apps that will allow you to do so. However, for best results, download the files on a laptop or desktop computer, extract the files there, and then send them to your mobile devices or upload it to your preferred virtual drive.
If you attempt to access a zip folder on a mobile device that doesn’t know what a zip folder is, you’ll get a screen full of random jibberish, which is pretty in its own way, but definitely not useful. See “How do I open my download folder?” above to learn how to properly extract the files from your downloaded folder.
