We often use the expression, "think beyond the chair", when talking about the potential that hairstylists have for financial success. Our guest today, Gio Vaccaro, did just that when he founded Glamsquad in 2014; an on-demand styling service connecting beauty pros with clients (much like Uber and Airbnb but for blow-outs and manicures). Glamsquad has grown to be an incredibly successful business and Gio teaches us from his own trial and error how he was able to create a business outside industry norms, how being a hairstylist positioned him for security and success as a startup founder, how he sets values and goals for his company, and much more.
This episode is our Season One Finale! We'll return later this year with Season Two. Thank you for listening and supporting!

At the Millionaire Hair Stylist we like to say that hairstylists are uniquely positioned for financial success. Our guest today, Joseph Maine, is a perfect case study of exactly why we believe this. From humble beginnings as a salon assistant in LA, to working at the side of hair legend Serge Normant, to his own roster today of celebrity clients, Joseph has truly climbed the traditional ladder of stylist success. But he didn't stop with clients in the chair! He has leveraged social media and marketing to build wealth with brand partnerships, his own product line, and now real estate. Joseph's story will inspire and inform your vision for success.

Today on the podcast we challenge the myth that you can't become a millionaire hairstylist if you live in a small market. Only those working in places like New York or Los Angeles can achieve massive professional success.
Our guest on this episode is Daniel Tetrault, known on instagram as @HairLikeABoss. His story profoundly disproves this myth. Working only out of a small Massachusetts town of 16,000 people, Dan has built a multi million dollar empire as a master of platinum and blonde hair with his own product line, Blonde Solutions. We talk to Daniel about how he spotted big market/celebrity trends to keep his prices high, how he began teaching others, and how he converted his success into a global product line.

Our guest today has a hot NYC salon and a growing product line gracing the shelves of Sephora and Anthropologie. But it's not these hairstylist accomplishments that he is most proud of, instead, Sam Brocato teaches us that real wealth and stability comes from investing in real-estate. In our conversation, we hear war stories from Sam's early days in New Orleans, how he's learned to build teams and manage stylists in his salons, how real-estate has become his financial foundation, and what advice he has for up and coming hairstylists.
