What's up guys? Welcome to episode two, Splitting Hares, the free salon education.com podcast powered by MinervaBeauty.com. Thank you everyone that is listening to the show. We actually had a good amount of listens and watches. I love that. I wonder how many of them weren't mine. Yeah. Good point. So, yeah, so I was actually really surprised and it was nice to see some people in the comments saying, you know, it's nice to have you guys back doing the show again, missed the Wednesday nights and all that. So, so again, we're live here every Friday taping the show. So if you guys want to join us live and be a part of the free wheel and all of that, you can do that. If you can't join us live on a Friday, which we understand. You can also comment in the YouTube video or any platform you're watching this show on. Just comment that you want to spin the wheel and maybe we'll pick you as well for it just so that everybody has a chance and you don't have to be on here live with us all the time. So just a hair in my mouth recap from last week, we talked about the Dyson supersonic R. This doesn't even mean it's because Brian's hair is shedding because he hasn't washed it since for like three weeks is apparently, I mean, it's almost two months. All right. So the Dyson supersonic R, right? Oh, yeah. We talked about that last week. The the thing with it was the price tag was the big thing, right? The big kind of standoff part of it, but everything else looked kind of cool. Did you sign up on the list? No. Is there a list? Yeah. Cause I was, I don't even remember how I found it, but I signed up cause it's not really like on their website, but I signed up to be told when it's for sale so that I can go ahead and buy it. Okay. I just figured they'd post about it when it was, but it's professional only. So, right? That's true. That's true for everyone. I, you know, I'm still questionable about it a little bit cause it is expensive. I mean, I'll probably get it to do a review of it or something. Hopefully they'll send one, but the, but the problem with it is obviously the price tag. So I put on Instagram threads, a poll and just asked if as a salon professional, would are you going to buy it? Yeah. And 82% of people said no. Wow. Wow. Which I thought was kind of, kind of high, but I'm also not surprised. Well, I wonder like of that, who just doesn't get into Dyson at all? Like are these people that enjoy Dyson products? But don't want to spend that? Or is it people like Carly that are just anti Dyson? Yep. Yeah. We'll have to see, but, but yeah, I'm, I'm gonna start a Kickstarter. Let's do that. So last week, we kind of left the show if you're, if you're already this attached to the show. Yeah. We left a major. We already have quite a few in the chat. Okay. Jersey, Wisconsin, Philly. Love that. Yeah. Philippines. Okay. Yep. We're going global. And Susan says, dude, you're killing me with this when you're doing clients like that we're having the show. Oh, I know. It's the worst. Spend that wheel just like old time. I just put the video on for you and your clients and like we'll entertain them for you. You don't even have to talk. It's killing us. Just trying to do it before we do clients, you know. And Carly Fernando says had a pro Dyson blow dryer. Not a fan. Yeah. You've got a fan. I'm not. He's actually here. He's in the chat from Philly too. Oh, all right. It's in the water, I guess. Yeah. Or the water. It's in the water. It's in the water. If you're so into the show and you've been waiting on baited breath since last week. We have Brian's wine story. But before that we have a... Why it was inspired. Yeah. It was inspired by this story. So we'll roll the video and you guys can see what we're going to talk about. And we can read it. Yeah. For the audio medium. If you didn't see this, it is somebody on an airplane who is clearly not respecting the person behind them. They have thrown their very fake hair over the back of the seat and is keeping it there. And the person who's having to look at this hair and her face is exacting revenge by putting gum in the ends of the hair. They are continuously trying to move it and you'll see the woman just keeps flopping it back in her face. Just very disrespectfully. So she gets nail clippers and is nipping the ends of it off. At one point she takes a lollipop and puts it in her hair. It's a lot of revenge. Okay. But I get it. I'd be very annoyed. And I'm less upset by it because this is clearly like wefts of fake hair that will come out. Yeah. But... I think the whole video is fake. I think the whole video is fake too. Yeah. I actually watched it the second time. So Brian sent it to me and I watched it and I had that reaction of like, wow, I can't believe this is happening. And then I watched it again and I'm like, these two are friends. Absolutely. They're dressed exactly the same. And she keeps whipping it. Yeah. Like it's so extreme. Yep. Like what do you... Do you think it's fake, Brian? Or do you... I... Whether... It's fake or... Yeah. That's actually me in the front there. You got me. So I don't wash my hair. There's a lollipop back there. No, I... Yeah. Whether this is real or not, this kind of thing does happen. It does, yeah. So more than just what this video inspires, just that level of revenge just makes me happy to watch. Yeah. Because I like seeing people who are disrespectful get their comeuppance. And it took... In the real world. It took three people to really make this video, right? The girl flipping her hair back, the other girl, and then the girl behind her in a row. So like these are like... But look at how much money they had to spend to make it. Your tickets are not cheap. Like this... They deserve the views on this one. Oh yeah, for sure. It's like $10,000 video. Yeah. Between the hair and the plane seats. Yeah, it's funny. All right, so... So that inspired Matt. And it just keeps going, but that's why we brought up Brian's plane story, which is kind of crazy just to set it up real quick. And then he can obviously tell the story. But we were sitting... Was it me, you, and Hayden sitting in one room? Yeah, we had... Two hair convention. Or was it Vegas? It was Vegas. Okay, it was Vegas show. Okay. And we had brought our son along with us. And we brought the staff. So Brian was... We were in a row, me, you, and Hayden. And Brian was across the other row with... In the middle. No, no, no. I was up against the window. Yeah, I remember. I was against the window. And there were two... No, it was a couple that were... Okay, you had the window seat and then... Okay, and then there was a couple, the middle and the aisle seat. Okay, and then go ahead. They look like they clearly had just gone to Vegas to get married by an Elvis impersonator real quick. No, they did not. They were in all whites. She was. She looked nice. And so, you know, you're leaving Vegas. You're exhausted. So the plane takes off. I'm comfy in my little seat. I'm in my little airplane red wine because I like the taste of vinegar. And I'm sitting there with my little Nintendo DS and I start to doze off because I'm relaxed. And then I jerk awake, clobber the cup of red wine all over. It basically exploded somehow. I defied physics all over this woman next to me in all white. So it's just, it's mayhem for a moment. So you would have thought I'd throw an asset on her. Well, freaking out. They run to the bathroom. I'm looking at Matt and Christina like, what do I do? I am horrified. Matt is about to piss his pants from laughing. I'm looking over at him like, what? And I'm like, Christina, help me. What do I do? There's wine everywhere. And thank God, like, Christina's the best traveler because she's got like the Mary Poppins bag of whatever you may need. So she's just got this endless supply of wet wipes. Yeah. So I'm trying to clean this woman's entire space. Wipe her lap. Before she got up, you didn't know what to do. Oh my God. It was awful. I'm literally, I'm sitting there thinking, I have my Mary Poppins bag for my five year old son. And thank God for me. It's a great traveler. And Brian's over there like, my child should be sitting next to me. And like the worst part of it all for me, like I felt so bad. You did. I put myself in time out. I didn't even ask for the stylus back to my Nintendo DS because I was like, I don't deserve to play video games right now. I'm punishing myself. And I just kept apologizing to the woman and she never said it's okay. That was the worst. I must have said I'm sorry a thousand times and she just goes, okay. And she never said it's okay. Never forgave me. I still carry that. How long was left on the ride? This is like a half hour into a six hour flight. Oh my gosh. He couldn't play his game. He couldn't enjoy it. And the flight attendant comes back and obviously he's coddling this woman because she's milking it. And he's like, can I get you anything? And then he looks to me, can I get you anything? Maybe white wine this time. And I'm like, all right. You know what I don't need? You know what he don't need right now? I get it. I feel bad enough. And I hope she never wore white on a plane again. Let that be a lesson. Yeah. Don't wear white on a plane. I agree. Because when I listen, when I use those wet wipes on that seat, the color that that wet wipe came up, the red wine was the least of her problems. Yeah. That was... Yeah. So that's what happens when you fly with me. So yeah. And just to be clear, I wasn't laughing. I don't think. Yes. You and Christina were... I wasn't laughing. I felt awful for you. I felt bad for the woman. And then I felt bad for you. It was written all over your face. Like, you were... You felt really... Even if I wanted to laugh. Out of respect for what was happening. Okay. Okay. I love how you guys remember this. Everyone was laughing at me. And she did. She did not take it well and ruined everyone's mood in that row. Because we all wanted to just kind of laugh and move on. Like, shit happens, you know? Yeah. What are you going to do? Live and learn. Wear black. I should have been filming it. Oh, yeah. Oh, we could be viral. Back in the day. Yeah, it would have been. Yeah. All right. So we got a couple of things to talk about today. I do think... I don't know if I want to skip this heartbreak. Can lead to hair loss thing. Then let's not. Well, no. Actually, I wonder if I want to. Oh. I think I want to. Okay. If we get to it, we'll get to it. Yeah. I think it's pretty self-explanatory about stress though. Yeah, they just... Yeah, they talk about stress and... It's really the ultimate... Stress and hormones lead to hair loss. Exactly. Yeah, that's done. Yeah, but... Get a therapist. And then it's like, it can take eight months for it to come back. And it's more about probably self-care than anything and what you're ingesting. Not really just rubbing vitamin E oil on your scalp. Like, you know, so. Right. Get a therapist. Yeah. That's the moral of the story. It'll help you cope with things. It does actually say, yeah. They do talk about that. They say that, you know, and within like eight months or so, like, of like really getting mentally, like, you know, back to your normal self. Well, it's like we tell people all the time, like, hair, skin and nails are just a outward reflection of what's going on inside the body. Yeah. Which is 100% true because I was drinking like lots of martinis and like, and I'm still, I still have martinis. I was gonna say, but you mean like this morning? That's so past tense. And, but I would also watch them down with gummy bears too, which is another thing that I would also do. And I, I have this eye thing. And I think it's all from that. What? No, I'm being serious though. You believe it too. Who saw this going that way? Oh, I totally do. But you're like, I just didn't see it going there. I have this eye thing. Well, no, it's like. People don't know you need to know about your eye thing. People, I don't care. What's your eye thing? Does it come out? It just sounds gross. No, it's like, well, I don't know. Like eczema or something. No, it might be psoriasis. Or psoriasis. You literally drank yourself to psoriasis. Yeah. Yeah, I did that. No, honestly in all seriousness, like you do have like an eczema or like an inflammation of skin. Yeah, like on my eyelid. But I can tell you, I think you'd look hot in an eye patch. So you know what? Just keep living. Well, I'm on my way. Keep living hard. I mean, I've always been. If you need it. Can you borrow someone's eye patch? Not when you don't want it back. Yeah, you don't want it back. I think it depends on what's behind it. Not when you have an eye thing. Yeah. Don't give that back. Oh, man. All right. So we're going to auction off Matt's eye patch. So it's going to be on the wheel next week. I actually, I just think it's stress. It's heartbreak. It's heartbreak. It's heartbreak. Back to the article, though. What I do find interesting is, you know, with when you, when you're stressed, you have like higher levels of cortisol. So what's interesting is that I think cortisol can like hinder the stages of hair growth in one of the stages. But also women with higher cortisol have excessive hair growth. Yeah. So it's just interesting that it could have. That is a, yeah. Have to do with both. I wish I was smarter to go on with that point. Well, maybe it has to do with estrogen, progesterone, testosterone, maybe. I don't know, but. I can let you guys know in the future because I actually, that is something I'll be going like to the doctor to talk about like my cortisol levels because I swear that I have like issues with that. So. My God. It's just going to be like, we're going to share all our medical stuff. Yes. Yeah. So. No, but if they have to do with hair. Yeah. Like my, cause I, I mean, my hair, I feel like, like how you're saying Christina, like I, my hair has grown a lot. I feel like in the past year, I would say a lot more than I feel like it usually does. So. Huh. We'll see. Lucky. You know. Cause you're young. Except for my bangs. Cause you're young. Yeah. That's true. Yeah. No, but just like to put to find it, like I noticed what they were talking about in this article that we're not talking about was you're talking about intelligent effluvium. We talk about that a lot since COVID because that is also something that happens when you're sick. Like if you have an excessive fever, blah, blah, blah, and like it's always been the case, it became more of a conversation after like COVID. Cause it was something that everyone in the world went through because a lot of people experienced hair loss after any prolonged high fever sickness, which also people were upping their vitamin D, which also has a direct effect of your hair to growth. So it's all, it's interesting when you start, like this article, this could go on to be a whole, it's not just really heartbreak, weight loss, it's the stress and your hormones and it's a whole segment. Yeah, for sure. We should do, we should talk about this article sometime. Yeah. It's not today. Let's move on to more important things, like, you know, Patrick Malone. Yeah, yeah, of course. It's funny cause that, that was so interesting what you just said, which was great. And in my head. Well, the people around me are, are so smart. Are so smart. And I'm like, in my head, I'm like, what's going to get people to watch this? And I'm like, we got to get to the Patrick Malone thing, but. That's our fan base. That was way better. That was way better. And I think people are going to like that more, but let's talk about. Let's see. Patrick Malone's, yeah. You guys, we'll put a, we'll put a poll up. Pull up, see who had, what was your favorite segment? Before we move on, Roller Girl from Las Vegas said, Matt, allergic to sulfates, what's the question mark regarding the eye thing? So maybe. That's a good question. So I've been working hand in hand with formulate. To like, I talked to him because he was saying, you know, and we're like making adjustments in my formulation or whatever. And then, so I'm not sure yet. We also thought maybe it was a reaction to actual tea tree oil. Really? Yeah. That sucks. Yeah. No, but tea tree. So this is the thing. Formulate uses 100% net like real stuff, right? Yeah. Most companies don't use 100% natural. Like it's just some kind of like they just throw it in there. Right. Almost every company is like that because it's expensive. Right. So, but some people can have a sensitivity to actual tea tree oil. So that could be possibly cause I was using a tea tree oil based shampoo. We're just going to point fingers at everything that isn't martinis and gummy bears. That's what I'm saying. But martinis and gummy bears. He's like, have you changed anything? And I'm like, no, but I'm pretty consistent with this one. Anyways, so. I put a different juice in my martini this week. That to me is like what I love like working with like formulate is like, I can literally talk to a chemist and be like, is it this and we can take sulfates out. We can take this out and we can just keep working to figure out what it is. You know what I mean? That is cool. But so far, you know, the gummy bears are gone, but the martinis are still there. So I don't bring them back. All right. So Patrick Mahomes has a kind of signature haircut, which apparently he did say he let it grow out and the people of Texas Tech loved it. That's where he played college. He also had a buzz cut in high school, which we have a picture of. He had that through high school. And then, you know, I have a sensitivity to that. I'm just kidding. I know you do. Triggered. And so in high school, he had that buzz cut. And then he went to college and him and his buddy had like a bet to like see who could grow their hair out. Of course, you know, the longest and he said he won. And it's kind of, it became his signature look. Oh, he won. Yeah. And now into the NFL. He's been wearing this Mohawk haircut in the headband, but he went on the Pat McAfee show and said he's going to be changing his hairstyle. Okay. So let's not talk about the athleticism. Let's talk about that big brain underneath that hair that you still have. Happy you didn't cut it. Hey, good news. Good move. Hey, it's gone. This also, you know, I promise y'all. It's gone. I almost did it today and this came on today with it. But I'm doing, I got to do something. I would have been devastated. It's kind of fun that I, do you guys feel like, and I know the whole Taylor Swift thing and all that, whatever into football. But back in the day, I felt like everything was very segmented and like fans of different things were all like put into categories very strongly. You know what I'm saying? And now I feel like we're just talking like we're talking about football players, hairstyles and we're talking, you know, like music, like everything's just kind of. Yeah. I mean, I think with what the different social media platforms has have done is it's made all of it so much more accessible. Yeah. Back when we were kids, the only people who knew what hairstyles they had were the people that sat down and watched the games. Yeah. Right. And now everyone knows because it's everywhere on everything. So everyone gets to weigh in whether they watch football or not. Yeah. So it becomes more of a conversation. You know, more people get involved to your point. Yes. So kind of interesting. Do you have any thoughts about his haircut? Do you like it? Yeah. Tell the truth. I mean, I just, you know, I'm just not a fan of Patrick in general, but. Okay. You know. I think his hair is cute. Yeah. It's all right. You know. Yeah, I like it. I didn't necessarily see Mohawk when I looked at it. I was like, oh, that's a Mohawk. I was reading what he said for like changing for his daughter. I'm a little confused by that. I got a three-year-old at home. I can't just keep the Mohawk going. At least change it up a little bit. That was the other part. Why? He says, he says he's going to be a father, right? Yeah, he is a father. No, he is a father. Yeah. So he's saying like being a father and having the Mohawk, he just kind of wants to change it up, which I actually. You can be a father with a Mohawk. You can for sure. But I do understand as you get older, because I think about those things too. Like as I, the way I dress or whatever, like it's not even as much about me. Oh, we should have brought pictures of before we had Aiden. Yeah. And took them up. Yeah. Like the way that I would dress. Stay tuned next week. Like you go to like parent things or you're around parents and you're just around like a different, you know, different company. Would you say you feel the need to conform, fill a role? Not conform, but also feel, feel more grown up. You know what I mean? 100%. So he might not feel, he might feel like that's his child phase. I can. In a way, like not child, but like college, like, you know, it was his college haircut. It's come into the NFL. He does like it, but maybe he's feeling like he just wants to try something different, which is kind of cool. Yeah. Like, oh, sorry. Go ahead. I was just gonna say, like I can relate to that. I feel like we changed Brandon's life. My, my husband, um, when we told him, you know, he should probably grow your hair out. Brandon, um, he for as long as I've known him has buzzed his hair for like, he would do it every two weeks religiously. And I kept saying, like, why don't you grow it out and see what we can do? And I feel like it changed his life. Now he looks like a grownup. That and he had a lot. He has a lot of callix. I don't want to call him out on it or anything, but. But I'm gonna. But I think it makes it interesting because he was like, I have all these callix. So he would buzz his head because he just hated those callix. But when you start to talk to somebody, and this is like for you guys out there, when you're talking to your clients, I told him how great his callix are. You know what I mean? Because they create this texture. And it actually has this one that kind of pops in the front. And it kind of caters to having a little bit longer hair. He just never had somebody that was like, use this product. Right. Try this way of like blow drying it real quick. Like he just didn't have that. So he hated his hair. Yeah. And I think he got, you know, made fun of it a little bit for it. So like growing up because he didn't have that. Um, you know, somebody saying that you can use this product and whatever. So, um, yeah, I was going to say that like just being comfortable, not really conforming your comfortable the way you are. And then as you are growing up or maturing or going through stages in your life, you might be like, you know, it's not about like everyone around me doesn't have a mohawk. Yeah, I can rock a mohawk. But I think maybe you just mature different, you know, different years going through the years. But like Brandon, he more probably was more comfortable than the hairdresser or stylist or barber knew what to do. Right. And now look at him. Right. Yeah. Yeah. He's got some style to it. Yeah. Yeah. I like it. Um, and then the other thing I thought was interesting about this is that he said he was worried about losing his head and shoulders, um, sponsorship, you know, or maybe not losing it, but definitely that it could affect it because he's got this, you know, head of hair. Like he doesn't have other sponsors. He's like on every other commercial. Yeah. Like how much haircut can I have and still get your money? Yeah. So it'll be interesting to see what haircut he goes with. Um, and let, let us know in the, uh, in the comments if you guys like his hair, if you could care less, whatever. We just want to hear your opinions about that as well. Today's episode is sponsored by Mevo, the salon and spa software that stands out from the crowd.

Um, all right. So we're going to combine or come up with our own list. We only got about, you know, 10 minutes left. Let's come up with our own list of, uh, real quick, the worst things, 10 worst things that people do to their hair. Okay. Not in any particular order. No, like we're not each doing 10. No, just like, let's just talk about it. And then we can come up with our own list because I kept seeing, I saw one person's list and I don't know if I fully agree with it. I don't want to just bring their list on. So I thought it'd be more fun. Uh, you know, people that actually know hair to really talk about like, you know, what are the worst things. I know I'm going to start with one because my biggest offender of this is going to watch this and she's going to know. Look right into that. Yeah. Look right. When you take your sunglasses that have nose pieces and push them back into your hair and then don't know why you've got breakage around your face. That's why stop pushing nose piece glasses into your hair. I feel attacked. I came in this morning like that. I was thinking, who did I just see like that? It was Carly when I walked in here this morning. And Carly was like, why won't my bangs grow? No, she just cut them up. She literally just said why won't my bangs grow. Guilty. And what's like, it's fine. If you've got the glasses where it's like all one piece, that's fine. You push those back, use it as a headband. But like aviators, you know what I'm talking about? Like the little separate nose pads that, like Carly's things right here. When you push those up into your hair, it's going to grab. And then when you just pull them out, guess what comes out with it? Yeah. Like when they get everyone, they do that like pull and they're like, yeah, that little extra is like, your bangs ripping out. One at a time. Yeah. All right. That was an interesting one. There's mine. You see, and that's what I'm saying. That wasn't on the list. But it's a huge problem. And it is those little things that people don't realize that they're doing. Right. That are really causing like little, little damage. If they're doing it every day? Every day. Several times a day. Yeah. Yeah. All right. Follow that. That's it. Do you ever almost say something and then? No. Okay. I just say it. All right. Good. I'll learn from you. All right. What do you have? Yeah. I think pulling your hair back when it's wet, tying it in a tight, and sleeping that way. Yeah. Don't do that. Cause that creates your breakage around here. I was so bad when I had my hair along the first time I would tell people not to do that. And then I did it and discovered why I tell people not to do that. And just yesterday I was telling a client, like they just don't understand. Like when your hair is wet, it's got more elasticity. So if you stretch it beyond where it should be as it dries, it breaks. Yep. And then you end up, I can clock people when they're in my chair when they do it. Cause it looks like bangs in the back of their head. You know where it is. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yep. Yeah. So we're on to everyone. We might not say anything. Oh, I'm gonna. That's the difference. They keep doing it though. Oh yeah. They won't stop. Oh yeah. People have all these vices and they don't stop. No, what helps is shame. That's not something. Yeah. Good call. Good call. Do you have a mat? All of mine. I've learned from you. So if you want to say any. Nice answer. No, you can say. No, I'm serious. Are you real? Oh. Too hot. Too hot with the hot tools. Oh yeah. You know, not using heat protecting. I do think this is one thing that I definitely believe is that blow drying your hair is actually not a good thing at all. Like I think the less you blow dry, the better off you are. So I think personally if you have chemically treated hair, bleached hair, perm, a smoothing treatment, and you're blow drying with a every day with a really crappy blow dryer, it's no good. And then also I think if you're overusing any, I'm not going to say name brand, like the brands, but if you're overusing anything that adds in a lot of proteins and keratins and in there, it softens your, like your hair so much that I feel like if you're going to use a hot tool, your hairs, you're ultimately trying to help or fix your damaged hair. But it's not working. But it's hurting you in the long run. I really do believe that. Well, to kind of go off of that, another big one that I try to shame my people into understanding is overwashing. Like the analogy that I love, listen, that's why I don't wash my hair. No, but the analogy that I love, especially for people with long hair, is if you take your favorite t-shirt and you wash it a hundred times, even on the gentlest, softest cycle after a hundred washes, it's still going to be completely broken down. And that's just a hundred washes. That's washing your hair once every three to four days for one year. Yeah. So if you've got hair that's long down your back, like that's years old. That is hundreds and hundreds of washes that will eventually just wear and tear on the hair. So if you are one of those people that insists you have to wash it every single day, but then don't understand why you can't get past a certain length, like, that's where that conversation comes in. Because I do think that that is something that leads to breaking down the integrity of the hair. Okay. Even good stuff. Yeah. The best stuff on earth. Yeah. That's a big conversation I've had with formulae is that the big things in hair products that really cause a lot of damage. Like people are so freaked out by silicones and different things. There's a lot of benefits to a lot of these ingredients. But oils are really not good. They soften your hair so much. But you're saying, isn't there different things in oils, whether they penetrate or they coat? Yeah. So then you have to just know what it is and how you're using them. When you're using them in the process. Silicones coat. So like when you want really healthy looking hair, silicones are great because they do coat and make your hair look perfect and polished. There are different levels to silicones. There are some really crappy ones or ones that you use on your car tires. And then there's ones and sometimes they get real close to that car tire silicone in certain brands. So you got to be careful. You want to make sure you're using a brand that is using high quality ingredients, but not everything is just bad. You got to understand it a little more and we'll get more into that because I think that's a way bigger conversation. I actually like to have a formulate guy on here would be fun. So I want to talk to you guys about formulate. Customized formulas, freshly dispensed may just for you. So I wanted to announce that I'm thrilled to be a part of the formulate journey.

Let's just hit on this real quick because I think this is a quick conversation. Women pay more than men for haircuts. Oh, I don't think it's quick. It's not quick. It's not quick. I know it's not quick, but we could get into it a little bit. Maybe get into it more next time. Maybe our cliffhanger. Yeah. I mean, it could be our cliffhanger too. How about we have that for next week? Yeah, let's do that. I don't think it's going to be quick. And I don't want to rush over another woman. No. That's a good point. I would rather wait to really get into that conversation. Yeah. Let's really get into it. And also what would be really cool is that you guys out there that watch this show, I want to hear your opinion. And girls. Oh my God. Really? Get me. Women, I want to know what the women think out there. Wow. Women paying more for haircuts than men. How do you feel about it? Who's going to feel good about it? We'll get back into it. There's a lot of different things to it. There's a lot to it. There's a lot of nuance. How do I word that for people to answer it? No, just like that. Just like that. And then we all get into it. And then everyone, it's a conversation. Like on average a women's haircuts three times more than men. I think you're right though. Everyone's not going to. I mean, most people are not going to be okay with that. But why? I guess is get a little bit in depth with your answer so that we can look through it. And I want to bring up your guys's conversations on the show as well. Because Louie even said gendering haircuts is 2024. My Lord. That ain't it. So that's a whole other way to go. But what's the solution? Yeah. And I also have thoughts on that too because of posting haircuts on YouTube and stuff. It's really hard not to label them because people are searching still. And so it's hard. Yeah. It's a really, really long topic. Conversation. Yeah. Okay. Cool. So we can get into it. All right. So next week. So many different avenues. Yeah. Next week we're going to get deep into that. And then who do we want to spin the wheel? If you want to spin the wheel, Brian's getting into position. First person to say they want to spin. I thought you did it. Oh, oh, oh. So what we're going to do for, yeah, for next week is comment on the video and let me know if you want to spin and we'll put you into spin. So the first person when? The comment right now. Oh, okay. Is going to spin the wheel. On the wheel, we have Minerva Beauty. They're giving away a Theragun. It's not necessarily this one, but they have a Theragun. And this thing is great for those long days in the salon when you want to just get home and, you know, work out the kinks. We also have Mevo, too, on the wheel. Mevo is doing conferences all over. Tracy gets to spin. All right, cool. Small conferences all over the country. We're giving away tickets to that. Formulate is giving away free formulation, custom formulation for you guys. And then we have a bunch of different scissors and things from our shop, shopfse.com. So it's Tracy, right? You said? Tracy. Yep. All right, Tracy, we're going to spin it and let's see what you want. Wisconsin, I think. Yep. I forgot to load up the applause. I was going to say we need wheel music. I'll put it. It'll be in the TriRazor. All right. All right. Congrats, Tracy. You want a TriRazor.
