| 0:00.0 | Coming up are the highlights of the full episode. |
| 0:09.0 | Hey everybody, Donovan here, producer of the Hair Game podcast. |
| 0:13.0 | We have two new Salon Republic locations opening this summer. |
| 0:17.4 | One is in West Hollywood on Santa Monica Boulevard, and the other is in Westwood. People |
| 0:23.6 | are reserving their studios now, so go to SalonRepublic.com, book a virtual tour so you can |
| 0:28.7 | get first dibs on your new space. Some of you out there are DMing us with suggestions on who |

| 1:28.7 | its course and show them which way they should be going because that's the quickest way to get |
| 1:33.3 | disappointed is just to have these grand expectations of what you really think you want before |
| 1:38.7 | you're even there. So sometimes there's something really beautiful not knowing what is going to |
| 1:44.1 | come out on the other end. |
| 1:45.7 | And that's the joy that I've experienced in this industry. |
