    The salon stuff nobody covers — pilot
    Apr 29 2026
    Welcome to backbar talks — the show that opens the bottles.Your retinol has a backstory. Your inventory has a leak. Your pricing has a math problem. And every Korean ingredient your medspa friend keeps texting about? It's already in someone else's treatment room.This is the pilot. Consider it the menu. Going forward we'll be unpacking one thing at a time, weekly, in 15 to 20 minutes — pricing economics, backroom operations, ingredient and protocol science, and the trends about to land in your supplier emails before anyone else mentions them.Today we walk through the four pillars and tease what's coming: why an $80,000 gross year quietly nets $40,000 after the math you weren't taught, why most independent salons lose six to eight hours a month to ordering chaos, and why K-beauty wholesale and PDRN are about to change what shows up in US treatment rooms.For solo estheticians, salon owners, medspa pros, and anyone who orders product without a corporate purchasing department behind them.—Register your practice on Suplery: https://suplery.com/?utm_source=podcast&utm_medium=shownotesRead the full breakdowns on every topic we tease: https://suplery.com/blogFollow Suplery on Instagram: https://instagram.com/supleryy—New episodes drop weekly.
