I can’t give you an exact number but what I can tell you is that I’ve created a 7-figure styling business for myself. I’ve also trained over 5,000 aspiring stylists to build their lucrative businesses. It’s not unrealistic to set your sights on making 6-figures as a style entrepreneur. The sky is the limit when you work for yourself, so dream big and get to work!
