I’m not going to say who, because I know who you’re referring to, but I just want to say I think you handled that situation with grace. As a follower of the opposite end , i have noticed shaming and posts and it’s truly disgusting. I think when someone bashes someone else they are insecure about themselves. You are so successful and carry yourself so professional and I admire that so much. You took the high road and look where you are now!! You are such a role model to me. I love your videos!!

I love your transparency in sharing your growth. You are my top stylist to follow because you are so willing to share your techniques and tricks. My foiling has improved tremendously and I know once I attend one of your upcoming classes I’ll learn so much. You are so authentic and that is so important for organic growth. You are so inspiring. Challenges are so necessary for growth - and I love that you took a tough situation and moved forward from it. Love your vids!!! xx

I have two months till I’m done with cosmetology school and just by watching your videos have learned and evolved the way I do hair now. I appreciate you and thank you for sharing this story. You are so selfless and ambitious and I strive to be as successful as you. Thank you for inspiring us all❤️

Thank u Jess, really inspiring. Yes please do the salon start-up / business tips.

This was so encouraging! Thank you for being honest! I would love for you to do part 2!!

You inspire me so much. All of your videos have allowed me to grow in my craft. I’m a way better stylist due to you. Thank you very much for all of your amazing videos. Trust me . I was bullied bad for 7 years at the salon I was working at. I was naive and to forgiving. It ruined me more than I thought it did. I’ve spent the last year getting my confidence back and riding myself from all of that bs I went through. Love you Jessi. You are the best.

YAAASSSS DO A PART TWO!!! I absolutely loved this! Thank you so much!

you’re so inspirational, you’ve inspired me to follow my dreams and not care what anyone thinks! i love you you’re awesome and thank you for sharing your story!!

After having such a dark week with all these tragic deaths this is such a ray of sunshine thank you for posting this. You should be extremely proud of yourself you also should know how much of an impact you made on so many people including myself. I’ve told you before but I’ve only been doing hair for about a year and I swear on some of my hardest days I’ll drive home and put on your KZfaq videos and just listen to what you have to say because you are inspiring kind and uplifting so thank you for that and thank you for always being so real and transparent with your followers. we love you!! See you in Arizona couple months!

You’re truly one of my biggest role models in the hair industry 🙌🏼💕 love your story and your work so so much

You have such a great perspective! Way to take the high road and prove everyone wrong who doubted you. You are such a talented stylist! I have learned so much from you and can’t wait to take one of your up coming classes here in Utah!

Part 2 yes yes ... this is so encouraging!!!

I am SO GLAD you made this video! This is such encouragement for me. I hope to own and educate in my own salon one day and this helped me so much!

I cannot thank you enough for this video... Seriously, thank you. I recently went out on a limb and quit a salon I worked for for the past 4 years to start renting my own place. I too was bullied for my beliefs and nuetrality and had to move on. I'm so excited and yet so incredibly nervous to start my own small business. This has encouraged me so so much to just dive in and go for it. Just what I needed to hear as I'm going through the stress and nerves of the unknown. Thank you!! 😭😭

I love this, please do part to talking about how to get started on running a salon.

I just want to say thank you! You’re such an inspiration. I am a new stylist starting out In the salon world, slowly building my own business and brand and there are so many days that I feel like giving up. You just help me remind myself to keep pushing on and continue trying to do my best. So thank you. Btw I have learned so many new things from your videos that I apply in my daily work and it has really helped me become a better stylist. Good luck with future endeavors. And thanks for being on KZfaq :) glad I found your channel

Very well handled. You do what you are good at, so inspiring to see your story. I had a salon owner, talk down to me in front of a guest before because I did hair differently than she did. I was very shocked and soon after I got out of there, found a new place. 9 years later after some ups and downs and building my clientele I finally got my own small salon. Thanks for this video. My parents were a great support and help as well.

I could never thank you enough for posting this story. My salon will be opening Tuesday of this week. And I have cried for weeks bc of something similar that happened to me. It just sucks bc it was who I thought was my bestfriend. But I am starting to see that God has a plan. And I am trusting that He has bigger for me♡ thanks for sharing, I cried the whole video lol. Love u much♡

Thank you for sharing your story. I am in cosmetology school now and struggle with being "on" all day at school. I'd love to hear about all the business side of salon ownership. I have been watching your youtube since the little salon and I am so happy that you are doing so well for yourself. I have been bullied so bad throughout my life and it has really broken me so I am now trying to believe in myself and get past the negative stuff so I can be successful at hair. I have wanted to do hair my entire life and at 38 I am finally making that dream a reality.

Very inspirational! I love your story and how you just had the guts to take chances on yourself! Go girl!
