Closing One Chapter. Preparing for the Best One Yet.

As the year winds down, salons everywhere are doing what they do best—finishing strong, showing up for their clients, and creating experiences that go far beyond a tan. This final stretch of the year isn’t just about numbers on a report or boxes checked on a to-do list. It’s about momentum. About pausing long enough to recognize how far you’ve come—and then deciding how far you want to go next.

Because one thing is certain:
The salons that plan now are the salons that win the season ahead.

A Year That Proved What You’re Capable Of

This year reminded us of something important—this industry is built on resilience, creativity, and connection.

Salon owners adapted.
Teams learned, grew, and stepped up.
Businesses evolved—adding services, refining systems, and finding new ways to serve their clients better.

That doesn’t happen by accident. It happens because you care deeply about your business, your staff, and the people who walk through your doors every day. And now, with a new season on the horizon, it’s time to shift from reacting to resetting.

Why the Best Seasons Start Before the Doors Open

The strongest seasons aren’t built during peak traffic—they’re built in the quiet moments before it begins.

They’re built when you:

  • Revisit your pricing and packages
  • Fine-tune your sales conversations
  • Re-energize your team
  • Decide what kind of experience you want to deliver next

This is the window where strategy matters most. Where clarity replaces chaos. Where confidence replaces guesswork. And that’s exactly why gathering the right tools, education, and inspiration now can change everything about the months ahead.

Your Reset Button: The UV, Sunless & Wellness Summit

January 23–24, 2026, salon owners and teams from across the industry will come together in Kansas City for two days designed to do one thing: Set you up for your strongest season yet.

This isn’t about information overload or trendy buzzwords. It’s about:

  • Practical education you can apply immediately
  • Fresh ideas that spark growth across UV, sunless, and wellness
  • Strategy sessions that help you see your business differently
  • Motivation that re-energizes you and your team

Bring your staff. Build alignment. Leave with a plan. Because when your entire team speaks the same language and shares the same vision, results follow.

A Small Reminder That Makes a Big Difference

If you’re planning to join us, this is also the time to lock in your stay. Our special hotel rate is available for a limited time and closes January 6—one of those small details that’s easy to overlook now but appreciated later.

Sometimes the smartest decisions are the ones you make early.

Heading Into the New Year With Intention

As this year comes to a close, take a moment to recognize what you’ve built. Then look ahead with intention—not pressure, not overwhelm, just purpose.

You don’t have to do everything at once.
You just have to decide what matters most next.

We’d love to be part of that journey—supporting you, your staff, and your vision for the year ahead.

Here’s to a reset that brings clarity.
A strategy that brings confidence.
And a season that reminds you why you chose this industry in the first place.

We’ll see you in Kansas City.
