Overview

Grief in the Salon: A Guidebook explores one of the most overlooked aspects of the beauty industry - the presence of grief in everyday salon life. Behind the chair, conversations often go far beyond hair, placing salon professionals in a unique position of trust during some of life's most difficult moments. With nearly four decades of experience, Kim offers a grounded, real-world approach to navigating grief in the salon-for both the professional and the guest. Rather than approaching the topic from a clinical perspective, this guidebook focuses on practical, applicable strategies that reflect the realities of a busy, people-centered environment. Inside, readers will find guidance on setting boundaries, maintaining professionalism while still being present, managing personal grief while continuing to serve others, and protecting the overall energy of the salon. The book also emphasizes the importance of preparation-equipping professionals with tools and language to handle the unexpected with confidence and care. Grief in the Salon is not about becoming a therapist. It is about recognizing the role salon professionals already play and giving them the structure and support to navigate it well. Because in an industry built on human connection, grief is not rare. It is inevitable.
