The world we live in is constantly evolving and changing, and that doesn’t exclude the workforce. Individuals are moving away from the stereotypical 9-to-5 job to freelancing or a more entrepreneurial path. It seems like every job field now has an option to be your own boss and go freelance. Over the past couple of years, we have seen an increase in beauty and hair professionals going freelance. But, why is that?

Here’s why hair PROS are going freelance

1. With the increase of beauty and health apps like Mobile Styles, going freelance is easier than ever before. Mobile Styles is the leading on-demand beauty and health app in the U.S. If you’re a Barber, Esthetician, Makeup Artist, Nail Tech, or an expert in any other beauty and health industry, our amazing app allows you to find clients from Los Angeles to New York instantly and all at no cost to you!

2. You get to make your own schedule. When you work at a hair salon, your schedule is determined by your boss. This makes it harder to schedule other important events in your life. More beauty and health professionals are going freelance because it provides flexibility. They can work when they want and take a break when needed.

3. More profit. When you freelance, you get to keep all of your hard-earned money. The hairstylists don’t have to pay rent or give up a fee.
