Hi, I’m Ashlee Risko Leeper.
I came from a sliding scale commission salon.
After five years of being commission, I started to see what my potential could be on my own. As soon as I realized what kind of life I could create, I out grew working crazy hours, giving my time away for free, not being paid OT, not having insurance and being limited in my earning potential.
I was supposed to get a four year degree and maybe go back to college for more debt. After all, I was told “you’ll never be able to support yourself doing hair, better marry rich”. Sadly, I started to believe this. I was already working 40 hours per week PLUS adding weddings and salon parties to my evenings and weekends.
In 2019, I became an independent stylist, booth renting in the break room that I renovated.
This was my last year behind the chair full time, I never imagined that I could do this. My COUNTY has 62k people and my TOWN 17k… the closest airport is an hour away but people were flying to me!
I opened my own salon in March of 2020. 9 days after opening, like many of you I was shut down.
We were closed for three months and somehow it was my largest personal income year. AND yes, I am going to share with you…
I made 400k+ gross in 8 open months.
For the past 4 years, I have been teaching other stylists how to change their lives.
