I own a hair salon. Typically, November is my busiest season. It has been SO quiet. A lot of my colleagues are also saying the same thing and have had to close up shop because of it - or get a second job.
People keep saying it will get better and the economy will bounce back but I don’t know. I am so close from just throwing in the towel, closing up shop and getting a corporate gig.
I hear and feel this. I own a hair salon and although we are steady, we are not crazy busy like we have been. I am in Seattle, it is usually bananas. Not sure what’s happening to cause this decline.
