Your clients stay on their regular schedules in a space they know and love, and most importantly, they feel genuinely taken care of. We've found they’re not just relieved, they’re grateful.

Grateful that their stylist took the time to prepare them with our services and bring an experienced stylist who already understands their hair needs and formulas.

Taking Time Off Shouldn’t Mean Losing Everything

Many stylists either push their health aside or take extremely short leaves because they feel they couldn’t risk their business by being gone too long or couldn’t afford to keep up with expenses.

It only makes sense that a Sagittarius would start a traveling business, right!?

Today, we are celebrating the founder of The Traveling Hair Stylists' birthday! A.K.A me😁

When I'm not running the business and covering other stylists clients for their leaves, I love to check out local coffee shops, live music, or binge Netflix shows with my husband and pups.

As I enter my 33rd year and reflect, I truly feel excited for what's to come and am proud to live in this nomadic lifestyle that would make my younger self think I was pretty cool.🖤

If you want your upcoming maternity or medical leave to be easy and seamless, then The Traveling Hair Stylists services are what you need.

You hire us to travel to you, care for your clients with your guided notes, pay for your rent, and give you ultimate retention of your clients because once you are ready to come back, we pack up and leave to our next destination.

Every stylist should have the option to take their salon leaves as needed and without added stress. This is how you can do exactly that.👏

Let me know what questions you have below👇

One of the perks of being a Traveling Hair Stylist is, of course, having the opportunity to explore within the areas we are providing coverage in.🌎

One of our stylists is wrapping up a contract providing coverage for a stylist on their maternity leave in Danville, CA.

Danville is a small community within the East Bay which provides a variety of things to explore with many different towns all offering their own flavor, the hills of the bay, and of course lot's of bay views.

East Bay also knows how to deliver on having SO many different parks, trails, and reservoirs that give you unique views of the entire bay area. Along with a variety of good food, especially in the Berkeley area!

What's your favorite thing in the East Bay? Let us know below⬇️

Client retention is one of the biggest worries stylists have when planning a maternity or medical leave.

You worry about whether they will come back, what if they get the wrong color, and then you have to fix it, or what if clients get antsy during a longer leave.

So what if you didn't have to worry about any of this, could take as long as you need, and not lose any clients in the process.

That's exactly what we offer at The Traveling Hair Stylists👏

A service of experienced stylists that travel directly to your space and provide coverage with your guidance and support your clients during your time off.

And based on our 2025 contracts, we guarantee maximum retention and total peace of mind.

So, DM, if you are interested in coverage in 2026🎉

Hiring our services to care for your clientele during your maternity leave is a way to directly nurture your clients while you are away.

That is HUGE because ultimately, this is the best way to set your clients and business up for success and maximum retention.👏

Trust us, your clients will thank you for bringing this resource right to them in your salon space!

Of course, our main priority is all about covering your clients while you are on leave.

But that's not the only benefit of hiring our services for your maternity or medical.

This isn't the type of situation we ever want to think about going through, but unfortunately, it can happen.

Being business owners with a client based business doesn't always allow for us to easily take that time for ourselves when we need it. But that doesn't mean it has to be impossible.

The Traveling Hairstylists want to make this possible for stylists in the industry no matter what they might be going through or dealing with. You are pouring so much into your clients and business, so let us do the work so that you can take the time for yourself if needed.🖤

#travelhairstylist #hairstylistentrepreneur

2025 has been flying so quickly! So, I am just reflecting back on some of our contracts so far and the little notes of gratitude and love that we receive our time of providing coverage for other stylists on maternity leaves.

While our services are geared to allow you to really take the time away that you need, we check in often to continue to give you the peace of mind throughout your leave that things are running smooth back in the salon.🤌

We are currently booking for 2026 leaves and even have some open time for the end of 2025 if you need some more immediate help! DM us to chat more about how we might be able to help you.

Greensboro has a small town feeling with lots to offer downtown and some gorgeous parks that surround the area like hanging rock and pilot mountain!

Sports are also a big deal in NC cities like basketball, golf, and even baseball.

And if you are an outdoors person, NC state parks are always free, so make sure to check them out! 🏞

You have to take 3 months away from the salon. How do you plan?

Stylists don't often think about this until that time comes up, where you have to schedule a surgery or you find out you're pregnant.

Whether you are an employee or self-employed, there are a few options that can help navigate this time with ease and support.

➡️Make sure to send this to another stylist so we can all be aware of our resources!

We are so excited to introduce Jennifer to the Traveling Hair Stylists team💇‍♀️🌎

Not only do we travel directly to you to provide coverage of your clients, space, and booth rent during your maternity or medical leave, but we can also play the admin role for you, too🤯

If you want to truly take this time for yourself then while we are maintaining your clients, we can also help out with scheduling, answering questions to the best of our abilities, and even get your clients prebooked!

One way that stylists also like to utilize this is by sharing their health updates or baby photos with us so that we can spread the message to your clients for you.

So rest up and enjoy your leave without feeling like you need to be attached to communications. We got you😉

#travelstylist #travelinghairstylist #hairstylistcommunity

You know what I hate to see?

When stylists feel pressured or guilted into returning to the salon earlier than expected during their maternity or medical leave.

I know we often consider ourselves to be so close and connected to our clients, but we have to remember that yes, these clients are there for our services and it is a business at the end of the day.

So why not set you and them up with The Traveling Hair Stylists where we come to your space to care for these clients, handle communications during your time off, and maximize rentention of this clientele you worked hard to gain.

This is a reliable resource that can support you during your time off so you can truly be off!

P.S. if someone is being outright disrespectful to you and the time that you plan to take off, do not tolerate that, and I'd reconsider them as a client🫡

#travelhairstylist #travelinghairstylist

You deserve to take as much time as you need and want, but many stylists feel the stress of what that could mean for their business upon returning.

Yes, clients don't always stay with you forever, but unfortunately, many stylists can experience significant loss in their clientele after taking time off, like maternity or a medical leave.

This is the biggest way we can help you at The Traveling Hair Stylists by maximizing rentention🎉

We travel directly to you, care for your clientele, and maintain your business for however long you need. We aren't there to poach clients because we come from all over the country. We are purely there to support you and all stylists who are taking time off from behind the chair🙌

If you are curious about how this all works, drop your questions in the DM's!

🚫Let's hope that you are shaking your head NO right now because no one can do it all.🚫

That only leads to exhaustion and burnout, and that's not what we are about here.

We at The Traveling Hair Stylists are here to offer support for stylists going on maternity, medical, or any extended leave who need help caring for their clients and covering their rent.

We travel directly to you and your space, we use your notes and products, and we offer support to maintain and retain your clientele so that you can take proper time for YOU.

This is us giving you permission to ask for help even when you're not sure how. When it comes to support with your leave though, all you need to do is DM us⬅️

We are here for you🖤

I really tried to take this seriously, but it really is just the funniest thing sometimes to "document" certain things for social media😅

But in all reality, starting in a new space is actually a really exciting part of being a Traveling Hair Stylist. It's kind of like the first day of school where yes, of course, there are nerves, but it's also the beginning of a new adventure!

For this setup, I am covering a stylist who works inside Salon Lofts and is on maternity leave for the next 3 months.

We already met for a quick how to on everything along with a tour, and a run down of what to expect during this process of me covering her clientele, rent, and space while she is gone. We truly make it so seamless to give stylists so much peace through their time off✨️

Okay, don't leave me hanging here because who else laughes at themselves making content?🙋‍♀️😅
