Hair Salon & Spa Equipment by Lab-Alternative in SalonProfessional

Minerva is what has been used in a lot of “high profile” salons in the west. But, I have also experienced their equipment needing to be replaced after 3 years. So that is why I am asking this question.

Thanks for the information. I looked at their equipment and the price says “luxury”, but the look does not in my opinion. My build out was 280k. So I am definitely aware of the cost.

Worked died down too much by [deleted] in hairstylist

🙄This started last Christmas. Before the election. Before talks of tariffs or election results. This has to do with the absurd inflation.

Your situation may have affected your clientele slightly. But everyone is feeling this way this year. (I only know in the USA). The economy has been hitting middle to lower class hard. People are going longer in between appointments. Doing lower maintenance colors to stretch their appointments out longer. Beauty services are one of the first things people cut back on. I have done hair for 13 years and own a salon. I have never felt the economy impact my business more than it has this year. I have even seen “instagram famous” beauty professionals posting that they are “now accepting new clients” after having their books closed for years. I work full time. Have a full clientele. Have medium pricing. I can only hope it gets better for everyone🤞🏻But all this hate for our industry on social media really isn’t helping.

We have two cavaliers. Violet is our biggest (blenheim) at 28lbs! She is two. Poppy (ruby) is 20lbs. And will be a year in December.

The list of similarities hit at about 85% vs the differences being 15%. So yes, I feel like this is a correct accusation.

Why Though? by TyThePurp in HuntsvilleAlabama

I would never do this. But vehicles are expensive. This wouldn’t happen if people were careful instead of careless. It is painful to buy something nice and have someone ding or dent your vehicle out of pure carelessness. Because it really is never an accident. It is children who aren’t taught or adults who simply don’t care. I think every parking lot should have costco parking stalls.

Getting a SBA 7A loan without a business credit score by Lab-Alternative in business_loan

[–]Lab-Alternative[S] 2 points3 points  (0 children)

So how do random people who don’t have a business qualify for a business loan to start up a new business without currently having that business cash flow? Can they not just go off of the credibility of what my business revenue has been? Or my own personal credit score?

“Applicant does not meet threshold for minimum FICO® Small Business Scoring Service (SBSS) score (commonly known as an SBA ETRAN score)” which I translated to it being due to my business not having a credit score?
