Summary
For over a year, we haven't checked in on the state of Instagram marketing, but the game has changed - A LOT. If your Instagram is gaining followers but your bank account isn't growing, something is broken. Today, I reveal what it actually takes to turn a profile into a profit-generating machine. We're moving away from the "dopamine hit" of likes and comments and focusing on the only metric that matters: butts in chairs. I'm sharing insights from my recent 2026 bootcamp and analyzing why so many stylists are spinning their wheels on complicated content while their chairs stay empty. We'll talk about the Hairstylist Marketing Funnel, why your feed is for new guests (not your current ones), and how the "boring" consistency you're avoiding is actually the secret to becoming a wealthy stylist.
