Episode Synopsis

In this episode, Michael Van Clarke welcomes back Mitchell Scott to explore the unique LLP partnership model that underpins the salon’s success.They discuss why hairdressing should be treated like other professions — law, medicine, architecture, and how the LLP structure gives stylists a genuine sense of ownership without the risks of traditional business models. From sharing profits and responsibilities, to building a culture where every client feels like everyone’s client, the system has created stability, loyalty, and a family-like team that stands apart from the industry norm.The conversation also touches on the challenges of apprenticeships, the undervaluing of hairdressing compared to other skilled professions, and why clients are willing to pay more — if they receive true expertise and service. It’s a candid look at how partnership, professionalism, and long-term thinking can transform a salon and the industry at large.Follow Michael Van Clarke: @mvanclarkeFollow Mitchell Scott: @mvc_mitchelltscottCredits: Producers: Michael Van Clarke, Louise Ortelli, Louise Oakley & Ben Lifton Editor: Ben Lifton from Big Little Content Production Coordinator: TYX Studios Sound Engineer: TYX Studios
