There’s no question about it: The professional skin care industry is in the midst of an evolution. It isn’t the same as it was 10 years ago—in fact, it isn’t even the same as it was two years ago. Various events and issues continue to impact and shape the industry, including, but not limited to, the economy. It is more important than it ever has been before that spa owners and skin care professionals be at the top of their game in terms of education and product knowledge in order to secure their place on clients’ priority lists.
