In Our Delulu Era

Season 9 · Episode 4

Monday, July 7, 2025 • Duration 33:52

Send us a message

Every beauty pro has a delulu phase—and in this episode, we’re airing ours.

From undercharging because we “just love it,” to thinking a Canva post would get us booked for months, we’re reflecting on the wild, naïve and hilariously optimistic things we believed at the start of our careers.

We’re talking early business delusions, marketing fails, unhinged launch ideas, and the ones we still secretly believe in. (Manifestation or madness? You decide.)

💭 Prepare for laughs, flashbacks, and some eyebrow-raising honesty.
