Thinking about becoming a solo esthetician?
Let’s talk about the REALITY of going solo vs. working commission. In this episode of The Rebel Show, I break down 5 key things you NEED to consider before deciding to go independent.
Too many people glamorize being a solo esthetician without talking about the challenges—and I’m here to give you the cold, hard truth so you can make the best decision for YOUR career.
💡 We’re covering:
1️⃣ Income Stability vs. Unpredictable Income – Are you financially prepared to navigate slow months?
2️⃣ Marketing & Client Acquisition – Can you build a clientele from scratch, or do you prefer a steady stream of clients?
3️⃣ Expenses & Overhead Costs – Do you know what it REALLY costs to run a business?
4️⃣ Scheduling & Workload – Do you want flexibility, or do you prefer a structured schedule?
5️⃣ Growth & Long-Term Vision – What does success look like for you?
🚨 This is NOT about persuading you one way or another. 🚨
Both solo and commission-based careers can be highly successful—it’s about choosing the path that aligns with your lifestyle, financial goals, and personality. Whether you dream of owning your own studio or thriving in a commission-based spa, this episode will help you weigh the pros and cons with full transparency.
👇🏼 COMMENT BELOW: Are you solo, commission, or thinking about making the switch? What’s your biggest challenge? Let’s have a REAL conversation!
