So before you become a niche-based stylist, if that's the case you're going for,

then definitely try out everything.

Be like a very well-rounded stylist before just becoming a niche-based stylist.

Hi, this is Naima LaFaunt.

It's Alfredo Lewis.

This is Amanda Libergert.

It's Robert Kromyens here.

Thank you for listening to the Hairgame podcast. Hey, listener. I'm Eric Taylor. In news, don't forget that starting

today, January 17th, in L.A. County, employees who work indoors next to others will be required

to wear, quote, well-fitting medical-grade masks, surgical masks, which I think are those blue ones we all know, or higher-level respirators such as N95 or K-N-95 masks, end quote.

The order comes as new research indicates that simple cloth masks do not do a sufficient

job at blocking out virus particles. Kind of funny, that's new research. Like, isn't that obvious?

Let's talk about the pot loop. The first episode of the month, we give away 500 bucks in cash to one

listener who's written us a review on the Apple Podcast app.

The winner has two weeks to claim it. If the winner doesn't claim it, we increase it,

kind of like the lottery. To get your name in the bag, simply write us a review on the Apple

podcast app and include your Instagram handle so we know who you are. I'll give you more

details at the end of the show.

Also, guys, please let your hair loves know about us because that's how our podcast community

and our industry grow. Now to Sharon Simply Insane. Hi, Sharon. How are you? Hello, I'm good.

And Donovan and I came over here. We jumped in my car. We drove over to Salon Republic, Woodland Hills, which is where we are right now.
