Control Who Sits in Your Chair

Control Who Sits in Your Chair

Kati welcomes celebrity stylist and educator Jill Buck to share how she took control of her career and built a high-value, high-demand business model—both behind the chair at 901 Salon in West Hollywood and as a traveling stylist for A-list clients. Jill opens up about her 22-year journey from Oregon to LA, how she transitioned to on-location work during COVID, and the strategies she uses today to ensure she only books profitable full transformations and color changes. She reveals her $800–$1,000 minimum color ticket mindset, why she now conducts consultations via email, and how she empowers younger stylists by routing lower-tier services their way. Jill also dives into 901’s luxury VIP experience, the independent stylist-assistant model shaped by California labor laws, and how she maintains work-life balance while launching her handmade accessory line and working on “Dancing with the Stars.” Get ready to rethink how you fill your books, elevate your brand, and control who sits in your chair.
