STYLIST SESSIONS AND SCHEDULE

A New Focus on Stylists

When the Data-Driven Salon Summit became the official home for the SALON TODAY 200 celebratory dinner in 2021, we witnessed many honorees bringing their team members for the festivities. This year, we’re adding a stylist success track powered by MODERN SALON, on Sunday during the Summit, so these team members can spend some time developing their own business skills to help them boost their personal metrics.

They’ll learn about blazing data trails with their Average Ticket, Productivity, Client Count, Client Retention and SGP, as well as subject industry experts and coaches.
