Tabatha's Salon Takeover

Tabatha's salon takeover is a reality show with this woman named Tabatha who goes to a salon that's struggling for a week. When she is at the salon, she tries to help them out and change things to make them a more successful salon. She then goes back in about six weeks to see if they followed her rules and are successful or went back to their old ways.

I watched an episode of Tabatha's Salon Takeover to see what some of these owners and staff are doing wrong. On this episode, the only problem was really the owner. She tried to control every little thing her staff did, even setting up cameras and watching her staff when she isn't in the salon. She always tore her staff down and never told them anything good. A good owner needs to be at her salon everyday and be understanding of her staff. She needs to help them out and be there for them instead of just telling them they did bad and not helping them out with it. She even tore down the customers. That was so shocking to me because without customers you don't have a business. She would send messages to her staff saying things like make sure that hag pays. That's extremely disrespectful even if the customers don't hear it. She needs to learn how to treat people with respect before she gets any respect from her staff and builds up business.

I thought it was hypocritical of her to tell her staff that they needed to put on makeup and do their hair because they looked bad when she didn't even wear makeup. If you're going to make rules you need to follow them. My staff will need to their best everyday and that includes me.

She also let people talk back to her. You need to let the staff know who is boss, but you don't want them to fear you. They need to feel comfortable to do good work. This episode did teach me a lot about being an owner of a salon. I will need to be one of the staff, not just the boss.

I thought it was quite offensive that she was yelling at Tabatha and saying that when she left she was going to put the cameras back in. She was extremely disrespectful towards someone who was just trying to get her salon back on track. I don't think her salon will ever make it with her pessimistic attitude. She acts like she could run the salon herself and she doesn't need any of her staff or anything, which is obviously not working for her.

I will probably start watching more episodes of this show because it was really helpful. I learned a lot from just one episode, I'll obviously learn a ton from watching more. Hopefully, learning from other people's mistakes, I will never have to be on this show. I don't think I'll ever let my salon get that bad in the first place, when you start losing money it should be a warning sign that changes need to be made.
