Why Stylists Should Stock Up on Hair Before the Holidays
The holiday season is one of the busiest times of year behind the chair. Clients are booking last-minute appointments for parties, events, and family gatherings—and the last thing you want is to be scrambling for inventory when you should be focusing on flawless installs.
Avoid Last-Minute Stress 🎁
Holiday shipping timelines can be unpredictable. Between increased carrier volume, winter weather delays, and high seasonal demand, it’s common for packages to take longer than usual to arrive. By stocking up now, you’ll have peace of mind knowing your hair closet is fully prepared for every client request—no panic orders, no disappointed clients.
Beat Low Inventory Levels 📦
Even with Muse’s expanded stock, popular shades and lengths can move fast during the holiday rush. Pre-purchasing your essentials ensures you’ll have what you need on hand for those back-to-back installs. A well-stocked inventory = smoother services and happier clients.
Year-End Write-Offs = Smart Business 💼
Purchasing hair before the end of the year doesn’t just set you up for holiday success—it can also be a smart tax strategy. Supplies like professional hair extensions are often eligible as business write-offs, meaning stocking your closet now may reduce your taxable income for 2025.
Always consult your accountant for personalized advice.
Start 2026 Strong ✨
Imagine walking into January with a fully stocked closet, ready to serve clients without the stress of backorders or shipping delays. By planning ahead, you’ll not only finish the year strong—you’ll also begin the new one organized, profitable, and prepared.
