The Realness of the Hair Industry

As we tuned our mics and began our latest episode, Mikey and I felt compelled to delve deep into a topic that resonates with every stylist, brand, and enthusiast: The hair industry's sheer realness and rawness.


Understanding Client Needs


Firstly, as a stylist or entrepreneur in the hair industry, it's imperative to put our clients at the forefront. 


While we might have our preferences, biases, and inclinations, the true essence of this business lies in understanding and respecting the client's wishes. 


Whether it's the style, length, texture, or any other aspect of hair, the end decision should always resonate with what the client visualizes for themselves. 


After all, the magic happens when their eyes light up, seeing their dream look come to life.

 

Different Tiers in Hair Quality


The world of hair is vast and varied. 


And just like the many shades, textures, and styles, the quality of hair available in the market also comes in different tiers.


 There's exquisite raw hair sourced directly from the sacred temples of India, known for its unparalleled quality and authenticity. 


It's the gold standard, revered by many but affordable to a few. On the other end of the spectrum, we have quality human hair that may not boast the same heritage but is still cherished by countless individuals for its affordability and genuine feel.


Embracing Diversity


And this brings us to perhaps the most crucial point of our discussion - embracing diversity. 


The beauty of the hair industry lies in its ability to cater to everyone, regardless of their budget or preference. 


While some may dream of flaunting the most expensive locks, others enjoy the more straightforward, affordable offerings. Mikey aptly mentioned during our chat, "Not everyone drives a Mercedes." 


The essence isn't in the price tag but in the authenticity and the happiness it brings the user. 


We in the industry must respect this diversity, not become 'snobby' or judgmental about choices, and ensure that every strand we offer stands true to quality and integrity, regardless of its origin or cost, stands true to quality and integrity.


In this vibrant realm of hair, where trends and styles evolve, one thing remains constant - the joy of transformation. 


As we wrap up this section, we urge every stylist, brand, and aficionado to remember the core values of authenticity, respect, and understanding. Let's celebrate every choice, every strand, and every story.

The Hair Market’s Demand & Supply

In our vibrant chat, Mikey and I meandered into another intrinsic aspect of the hair industry - the delicate dance between demand and supply. 


As business aficionados and hair enthusiasts, we both understand the rhythm of the market and how imperative it is to stay attuned to its beat.


Keeping in Tune with the Market


For every brand, stylist, and entrepreneur, it is critical not just to offer what you believe is the best. 


The market's demands are about aligning with the pulsating demands of the vast clientele. Regardless of your product's premium or exclusive, it's found takers. 


If it doesn't resonate with what the audience seeks, it's find takers. 


It’s essential to cater to all market segments, from the luxury aficionados who seek nothing but the best to the everyday consumers looking for affordability without compromising quality.


Popular Trends


Navigating through the market currents, we've observed some intriguing trends. 


One of the most surprising yet enlightening revelations has been the sales ratio. For every bundle of the highly sought-after exclusive Indian hair, we've witnessed the sale of a hundred bundles of standard hair. 


This isn’t a test of the quality of either type but an insight into consumers' preferences.


The essence of succeeding in the hair market is recognizing these trends and adapting accordingly. 


Offering a spectrum of products ensures every customer finds what they're looking for, regardless of budget or preference. It's not about wanting to create an exclusive club but an inclusive community.


Staying grounded in the market's demands is critical in an ever-evolving world with trends that shift with the wind; staying grounded in the market's needs is vital. 


As we often muse, it's not just about selling hair; it's about weaving dreams, strand by strand. To do that, one must listen, adapt, and deliver to the symphony of the market's demands.

Balancing demand and supply in the hair industry

Fun & Transportation: The Rise of Electric Scooters

Amid our discussions on the intricacies of the hair industry, Mikey and I found ourselves on an exciting tangent that beautifully captures the essence of innovation and evolving consumer preferences: the rise of electric scooters.


Uber's New Venture into the Scooter Business with Lime


In the ever-transformative world of tech, Uber's recent investment in Lime, a scooter company, took center stage in our chat. 


With the wave of sustainable and compact transportation options flooding our streets, it's no surprise that this venture caught our attention. 


Lime, already making strides in cities like San Francisco, aims to compete with other scooter services, adding flair and convenience. 


The prospect of booking a scooter ride via the Uber app showcases how seamlessly technology blends with our everyday life, revolutionizing our commute.


Embracing Fun


Amidst the hustle and bustle of our hectic schedules, there’s an understated joy in the simplicity of riding a scooter. 


Why do we sometimes trade the comfort of our cars for these two-wheelers? The answer is straightforward – it's downright fun! 


Beyond just being a mode of transport, scooters offer an unconventional way to break the monotony, feel the wind in our hair, and reconnect with the playful side we often sideline. 


Mikey even quipped about his delightful scooter rides to the office, highlighting that sometimes it's essential to toss aside pretense and Uber's enjoy the moment.


To all our readers, our conversation on electric scooters is a gentle reminder: In a world chasing advancements, it's okay to slow down, take the less-traversed path, and indulge in the simple joys. 


After all, life is not just about reaching the destination and enjoying the journey – even if it's on an electric scooter!

The Power of Team Building & Community

In the ever-evolving world of the hair industry, amidst the glitz, glamour, and bundles of gorgeous hair, an essential element often goes unnoticed: the strength of a united team and a supportive community. 


Mikey and I cannot emphasize enough how pivotal these two pillars have been in our journey.


Building the Team - The Backbone of Success


It's a universal truth in business - as your brand grows, the need for a passionate, dedicated team becomes paramount.


 Our own growth story at Private Label Extensions is a testament to this. With every new chapter, we've welcomed new faces, each bringing a unique skill set, a fresh perspective, and a drive that pushes us to reach greater heights. 


Every strategy we implement, every bundle we sell, every podcast episode we record - an entire team working diligently behind the scenes, making it all happen.

 

Importance of Support Systems


While our internal teams are our pillars of strength, we also recognize the power of external communities.   


Our Facebook group, now boasting over 17,500 members, serves as a beacon of learning, sharing, and mutual growth.


 It's not just a platform for hair enthusiasts; it's a melting pot of experiences, feedback, and aspirations. 


This community is more than just numbers; it's about real people sharing genuine experiences. 


From hosting contests to facilitating discussions and battling spam to maintain the group's integrity, we've seen firsthand the positive impact a well-managed community can have.


In conclusion, whether it's the close-knit team that forms the core of Private Label Extensions or the expansive community that supports and enriches our brand, we've realized one undeniable truth: 


Together, we not only achieve more, but we also create a legacy of camaraderie, trust, and shared success.

The essence of teamwork and community in the hair industry,

Connecting Through Facebook Groups

In this digital networking age, there's no denying that social media platforms have transcended beyond mere communication channels – they are now the new-age communities where like-minded individuals converge, collaborate, and co-create. 


As we, Zakiyrah and Mikey, delved deeper into the realm of the hair industry, Facebook Groups emerged as one of our most cherished platforms to foster such interactions.

 

The Essence of Our Facebook Group


Imagine a bustling online marketplace – not of products, but of ideas, experiences, and aspirations related to the hair industry. 


That's what our Facebook Group embodies. Boasting a robust community of over 17,500 passionate individuals, we've curated a space where budding entrepreneurs, seasoned stylists, and hair enthusiasts come together to educate, uplift, and inspire one another.


The Value of Authentic Groups


Navigating the vast realm of social media, one often encounters an influx of spam and disinformation.


 It's like sifting through a haystack in search of a needle. That's where our group stands out. 


We've ardently maintained a spam-free zone, dedicating hours to ensure that every post, and every discussion, resonates with authenticity. 


It's not just about numbers or engagement metrics for us; it's about building a platform where genuine learning and sharing take precedence.


Dividing the Group for Specialized Learning


Recognizing our community's diverse expertise and knowledge levels within our community, we've also taken strides toward more specialized learning experiences. 


While our primary group caters predominantly to beginners, offering a foundational understanding of the hair industry, we also envision curated spaces for the more advanced learners. 


The idea is to provide a more tailored and focused learning journey, ensuring that every member, whether a newbie or a veteran, finds value and growth.


Our journey with Facebook Groups is a testament to the power of community-driven learning. 


In a world where the digital often feels impersonal, these groups breathe life, emotion, and genuine connection into our shared digital experience.


Upcoming Ventures and Courses

The world of hair isn't just about the strands, curls, or colors; it's also about the narratives, stories, and journeys intertwined with it. 


As we, Zakiyrah and Mikey, immerse ourselves deeper into this fascinating realm, we constantly seek ways to amplify our knowledge base, empower our community, and introduce innovative avenues for learning and growth. 


Here's a glimpse of what's brewing behind the scenes:
