Los Angeles Magazine - Best of LA

Los Angeles Magazine - Best of LA

The difference between a $30 cut & a $400 cut. I like the concept of this. Our prices are higher than the lowest but NOT in the $400 range!

To me it is based on time. What is it worth the stylist to work and get clients to pay it. Once a stylist is popular he/she can beging charging more. Supply and demand.

What do you think????

Love to get some comments on this one.

new look to our website!

http://www.matthewraysalon.com

so I spent all day and night updating our website. I was using sitebuilder but then it freaked out and I lost a bunch of my pages and stuff. So, a client of ours told us about site solution on Yahoo.

So, I tried it and it is sooooo easy and great. The site looks much better I think.

Let me know what you think.

Take a look!

If it isn't there yet, try to refresh your browser or let me know cuz it might be a glitch in switching over the site from one to the other.

Thank you!

New hairstyle ideas

So, where do we get new ideas from? I really say the most easily accessed is the magazines. We make sure that we get a range of magazines that show everything from fashion to red carpet styles.

At Matthew Ray Salon, we are all exposed to our own world of beauty and need to see what is being shown to the public.

Even though Matthew works on television he still is seeing what the directors/actors want to see. Through this the customer ends up getting influenced on what they are looking for.

Norma and Allison work on photoshoots & videos and those also have a special look they are going for. What ends up happening is their clientele starts to represent their work because those people are being attracted by what they are seeing.

Check out my quote on Page #40 of the Nov 09 issue of Modern Salon. This is from a post on Facebook!

Wow. It is great exposure but also makes you think. So, you post it, it can be printed and sent out to the world!!!

Ilana Weiner my new Esthetician

So, I went to visit Ilana at her school today. She shaped my brows with wax and tweezers and gave me a facial with peel and galvanic current!

I feel so good from it. She is really a natural. Hopefully, when she graduates, she will come work at our salon and share her magic hands with our clients!
