Hi, I'm Chrissy Rasmussen, founder of Habit Salon, creator of the Habit Extension Method, and the person who's been where you are.
Before I had salons in Arizona and California. Before I had 5 million followers. Before I had hundreds of talented stylists working with me, I was doing hair in my mom's attic.
I remember what it felt like to have a client in my chair and feel that wave of panic, wishing I had an instructor right next to me helping me mix the perfect formula. I felt so alone. And everyone in this industry kept their secrets under lock and key.
So in 2012, I did something the industry called crazy.
I started posting my actual formulas online. The full formula; brand, developer, ratio, application, everything.
People told me I was giving away my secrets. That no one would book me if they could DIY.
I kept posting anyway.
Because here's what I believe with my whole heart:
When stylists share instead of gatekeep, everyone grows faster.
My business didn't suffer when I started sharing, it exploded. And the stylists who learned from those posts became the foundation of something much bigger.
The Habit Beauty Guild is built on that.
