Just hit my 500th client in four years of doing hair in Minneapolis

I was scrolling through my booking software last night and realized I've done exactly 500 heads since I started at the salon, which blew my mind because I definitely thought most of those were the same 20 regulars coming back over and over, but the number made me stop and think about how much repeat business actually keeps the chair full, has anyone else ever counted up their total client count and been surprised?

Damn, that's awesome to see the numbers laid out like that!

Haha right? What gets me is how small the margins are even at scale like this. One bad batch or shipping delay and that whole graph turns into a stress test real quick.

Right, so my bank account's version of this graph would be a single flat line with one tiny spike when I return empty cans.
