Ready to step from behind the chair and into a salon space of your own?

[UN]APOLOGETICALLY ICONIC: Creating Your Suite Life is a salon suite business guide created for hairstylists and beauty professionals who are ready to build something that feels like theirs.

Drawing from Chee Symon’s own journey into salon suite ownership, this guide walks you through the mindset, preparation, money decisions, and business foundations that come with transitioning into an independent salon suite. From starting with what you have to strategically investing in your business, understanding your numbers, and creating an experience clients remember, this is about building your version of the Suite Life, without waiting until everything is perfect.

Inside, we explore:

• Preparing yourself for salon suite ownership
• Financial planning and budgeting for hairstylists
• Finding the right salon suite
• Strategically investing in inventory and equipment
• Marketing your salon business and defining success
• Legal and administrative considerations
• Creating an elevated, memorable client experience
• Developing your salon brand and elevator pitch
• Building with intention, even when you're starting on a budget

Chee’s first salon suite wasn't massive or filled with expensive furniture. It was a modest space transformed using affordable pieces, creativity, resourcefulness, and a bigger vision. The lesson? You don't have to wait until you have everything to start building something iconic.

Whether you're currently booth renting, working in a traditional salon, doing hair from home, or simply dreaming about becoming an independent hairstylist, this guide will help you start thinking like the owner before you ever receive the keys.

Your salon suite doesn't have to start big. It needs to start with vision, strategy, and a plan.

Welcome to your Suite Life.
