### New install

```text
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Then review README.md for any prerequisites, environment setup, or post-install checks. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
```
### Upgrade existing

```text
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise.

### Booth Rental

Stylist pays $200-$600/week for chair
Keeps 100% of service revenue
Salon provides space + utilities only
Stylist is 1099 contractor — no benefits, no scheduling control
Risk: IRS reclassification if salon controls hours/pricing

### Commission

Standard: 40-55% commission on services
Senior/master level: 50-60%
Retail commission: 10-20% of product sales
Salon controls pricing, scheduling, brand standards
Employees (W-2) — payroll taxes, potential benefits

### Hybrid (Team-Based)

Base hourly ($12-$18) + commission kicker above threshold
Example: $15/hr base + 40% commission on revenue above $800/week
Encourages productivity while providing income floor
Growing trend — reduces turnover

### Tips

Industry standard: 15-20% of service price
Salon should never take a cut of tips (legal in most states, terrible for retention)
Credit card tip processing fees: salon absorbs or splits — absorbing builds trust

### State Board Requirements

License TypeTypical Hours RequiredExamCosmetologist1,000-1,600 hoursWritten + practicalEsthetician300-750 hoursWritten + practicalNail Technician300-600 hoursWritten + practicalMassage Therapist500-1,000 hoursMBLEx (most states)Barber1,000-1,500 hoursWritten + practical

### Compliance Checklist

Salon/establishment license displayed publicly
 All practitioner licenses current and posted at station
 Liability insurance ($1M/$2M general, $1M professional)
 Workers' comp (required in most states with 1+ employees)
 OSHA compliance: SDS sheets for all chemicals, ventilation standards, PPE
 Sanitation: autoclaving/barbicide protocols, single-use items, EPA-registered disinfectants
 ADA accessibility compliance
 Music licensing (ASCAP/BMI/SESAC — $300-$1,000/year)
 HIPAA considerations for med spas (if offering injectables, laser, clinical services)
 State-specific chemical disclosure (California Prop 65, NY OSHA)

### Med Spa Additional Requirements

Medical director (MD/DO) oversight required in most states
NP/PA can perform some treatments depending on state scope
Botox/fillers: only licensed medical professionals
Laser devices: varies by state — some require RN/NP, others allow trained techs
HIPAA compliance mandatory for patient records
Separate malpractice insurance for medical procedures

### Revenue Maximization Framework

Peak hours (Sat 9AM-2PM, Thu-Fri 4-8PM): Book highest-ticket services
Express lane: 15-30 min services (brow wax, bang trim, blowout) fill gaps
Double-booking: Color processing time = overlap with another client (experienced stylists only)
Online booking: Reduces phone time 60-70%, captures after-hours bookings
Deposit policy: $25-$50 deposit for services over $100 — cuts no-shows 50-70%
Cancellation policy: 24-48 hour notice, charge 50% for late cancels
Waitlist automation: Fill cancellations within minutes via text alerts

### Seasonal Revenue Calendar

### Product Mix

Professional haircare: 50-60% of retail (Olaplex, Redken, Pureology, Kevin Murphy)
Skincare: 20-25% (medical-grade if esti services offered)
Tools & accessories: 10-15%
Specialty/seasonal: 5-10%

### Markup Standards

Professional products: 50-100% markup (buy at $12, sell at $24)
Private label: 200-400% markup (highest margin — build your brand)
Tools (flat irons, brushes): 40-60% markup

### Retail Conversion Tactics

Use it during service → client feels the result → recommend at checkout
"Prescribe, don't sell" — stylists are authorities, not salespeople
Loyalty program: buy 5 get 1 free on repeat products
Subscription model: auto-ship every 6-8 weeks with 10% discount
Travel sizes at checkout counter for impulse purchases

### Stage 1: Solo/New Salon (Year 1)

Target: $150K-$250K revenue
Focus: Client acquisition, Google reviews (100+ reviews = dominant local SEO)
Spend: 5-8% of revenue on marketing (Instagram, Google Ads, Yelp)

### Stage 2: Team Building (Year 2-3)

Target: $400K-$800K revenue
Add 2-4 service providers
Introduce commission structure + retail incentives
Systems: booking software, inventory management, client records

### Stage 3: Multi-Location/Brand (Year 4+)

Target: $1M+ revenue
SOPs for everything — replication-ready
Manager role (not owner in chair)
Consider franchising or licensing the brand
Corporate accounts, event contracts, influencer partnerships

### Client Acquisition Cost Benchmarks

### Red Flags — Common Mistakes

Pricing too low — Race to bottom destroys margins. Charge what you're worth.
No retail program — Leaving 20-30% revenue on the table.
Booth rental with control — IRS classifies as employee. Fines + back taxes.
No prebook system — Clients who don't rebook at checkout have 40% lower retention.
Ignoring online reviews — 90% of new clients check Google/Yelp first.
No cancellation policy — No-shows cost US salons $67B/year.
Over-discounting — Groupon/discount clients rarely convert to full-price. Build value instead.
Skipping continuing education — Trends change fast. Budget $500-$2,000/year per stylist.
