Almost every Salon Owner starts off as a hairdresser or therapist. What does this mean, you ask? Well, usually it means that we go into owning a business blind, with no idea how challenging it’ll be, and making a lot of mistakes as we go. But, you know what? That’s ok!  In this Episode of the Podcast, I’m chatting with Steve Corthine, or as most people know him: Stevie English. Steve is a Salon Owner who, like so many of us, admits to having made every mistake possible. Stevie’s Salon, Stevie English Hair, has an unmissable personality that has so clearly come from his own uniqueness and identity.
