Are you using AI… or letting AI use you? 🤖💬
In this episode Elaine sits down with Chrystal Graves, founder + CEO of LiQUiD to talk about what AI can do for stylists (and what it absolutely shouldn’t).
Crystal breaks down how Liquid is built to be a salon assistant that pays for itself—helping you price correctly, prep smarter, increase average ticket, and stop giving away your time for free.
🎹 What you’ll learn:
✨ Why “raising your prices” isn’t always the answer
💡 How to increase your average ticket without feeling salesy
👀 The real reason stylists keep doing glosses + blowouts for free
📉 Why comparing prices to the salon next door is a trap
🧠 How Liquid helps with consultation prep, scripts, and decision fatigue
⚠️ Why ChatGPT tells you what you want to hear—and why that’s risky
This is a must-listen if you’re wearing 99 hats, feeling stuck financially, or curious (and a little nervous) about AI in our industry.
