Eboney - Luna Sol

Running a business is hard. Really hard.

And honestly, I don’t think people always see what goes on behind the scenes.

They see the beautiful work, the smiling faces, the social media posts and the doors opening every day. But they don’t always see the sleepless nights, the constant stress, the financial pressure, the self-doubt and the moments where you sit there wondering how much more you can take.

As a small business owner, there is no switching off. The business follows you home. It’s in your thoughts when you wake up and often the last thing you think about before going to sleep.

You carry the responsibility of keeping everything going, paying the bills, supporting your team, looking after your clients and somehow still trying to keep yourself together at the same time.

There have been moments where I’ve felt overwhelmed, exhausted and completely defeated. Moments where I’ve questioned whether I’m good enough and whether all of this hard work will ever pay off.

But despite how hard it can be, this business means so much to me.

I have poured my heart, my time, my energy and so much of myself into building this.

So if I seem quiet sometimes, please know it’s not because I don’t care. Sometimes I’m just trying to hold everything together.

To everyone who continues to support my small business, book appointments, recommend us and stick by us — please know that it means more than you will ever realise. 🤍

We would like to sincerely thank you for your patience and understanding when appointments have needed to be moved or rescheduled recently. 💕

Unfortunately, our small team has been hit hard with RSV and COVID these past few months. We completely understand that having your appointment changed can be frustrating, but we’re sure you can appreciate that we don’t want to risk spreading these viruses to our clients, team members or their families.

Working in such a highly public-facing industry means we can sometimes be more vulnerable to picking up these illnesses, and with a small team, we don’t always have the capacity to accommodate everyone as quickly as we would like.

To everyone who has shown us kindness, patience and loyalty during these challenging times — we truly appreciate you more than you know. Thank you for sticking by us and supporting our little team. ❤️

Who doesn’t love a bold, disconnected asymmetrical cut, brought to life with vibrant copper, blue, and orange tones? 🧡💙🩵

Those rich brunette tones are easing us beautifully into autumn 🤎

If you’ve been thinking about a seasonal refresh, consider this your sign. A deeper, glossier brunette might be exactly the change you’ve been craving.

Book your appointment with one of our incredibly talented stylists and let’s create something you’ll love all season long. ✨

Who doesn’t love soft caramel highlights hidden within a rich brunette 🧡🤎

As a woman 2½ years into running my own business, I can honestly say it hasn’t been easy.

But every challenge has carried a lesson. Every setback has sparked growth. And some days have revealed a strength I never knew I had.

I wish I had been better prepared for the rollercoaster that comes with building something from the ground up, so if you’re thinking about starting your own venture, these are the things I’d want you to know.
