The Challenge
- 1
Sacramento sandwiched between Bay Area and Central Valley—salons struggle for distinct identity separate from SF or Fresno
- 2
State government workers have steady income but conservative beauty spending—need authority to justify premium services
- 3
Midtown gentrification brings Bay Area transplants expecting SF-quality—but how to reach them before they choose a salon?
