Spa Day
The Gold Standard Esthetician - Lori Turner
This week on Spa Day, I’m joined by someone I consider the gold standard of the beauty industry: Lori Turner. ✨ Lori was the Director of Esthetics at my beauty school, but her impact on this industry goes far beyond the classroom. She’s an educator, mentor, licensed beauty professional, and now serves on the Tennessee Board of Cosmetology and Barber Examiners—helping shape the future of the industry from the inside. We talk about her journey from behind the chair and in the classroom to serving on the state board, what’s happening in the beauty industry right now, the importance of education and licensure, and some of the controversial conversations beauty professionals aren’t always willing to have. This episode is full of industry stories, wisdom, laughs, and the kind of insight you can only get from someone who has truly seen every side of this business. If you’re an esthetician, cosmetologist, beauty student, educator—or you just love hearing what really goes on behind the scenes of the beauty industry—this one is for you.
