Angelina Murphy Featured in HuffPost: A National Spotlight on Her Industry Insight
A Big Moment for the Beauty Industry—and a Personal Milestone
We’re proud to share a major win for Angelina Murphy and the entire community she represents: Angelina was recently featured in HuffPost—one of the nation’s most trusted publications—for her voice and expertise on a topic that’s reshaping the hair and beauty industry: the “hair recession.”
In the piece titled “Hair Stylists Are Bracing for a ‘Hair Recession.’ Here’s What That Means”, Angelina offered thoughtful, real-world commentary on how stylists and salon owners are navigating economic shifts and evolving client behavior.
Why This Feature Matters
Being recognized in HuffPost isn’t just a publicity boost—it’s a validation of Angelina’s authority and leadership in the hair and beauty world. In a time when consumer habits are shifting and many stylists are questioning the sustainability of their careers, Angelina continues to lead with transparency, empathy, and innovation.
Demonstrating Real-World Expertise
As both a working stylist and the founder of Sold Out Stylist, Angelina understands the pressure beauty professionals face. She’s helped countless stylists build profitable, fulfilling careers by teaching them how to own their worth and run their business like true entrepreneurs.
In the HuffPost feature, she emphasized something that often gets overlooked:
“It’s not just about the haircut anymore—it’s about delivering value and building relationships.”
That insight is at the heart of everything Angelina does—from mentoring other stylists to serving clients in her own chair. It’s this blend of personal experience, industry insight, and service-centered values that made her voice such an important addition to the article.
What Is the “Hair Recession”?
In case you missed it, the “hair recession” refers to a growing trend where clients are stretching out their appointments, cutting back on services, or opting for lower-cost options. While some may interpret this as a downturn for salons, Angelina views it as an opportunity for growth.
She believes stylists can thrive in any economy—if they learn to adapt their approach, focus on high-impact services, and build deeper client relationships. That mindset has become a core message in her education and coaching.
More Than Just a Quote—A Movement
This feature isn’t just about recognition. It’s about reshaping the narrative. Stylists deserve to feel empowered, profitable, and respected. Being quoted in HuffPost gives national visibility to what so many in the industry have been feeling quietly for years.
