What starts as a conversation about kids invading beds and husbands with lava-hot hands quickly turns into a wildly unhinged (and surprisingly deep) discussion about useless superpowers, horse-sized ducks, laser boobs, and autobiography titles that absolutely should not be published. Along the way, the girls open up about trauma responses, control issues, always being “the prepared mom,” and the emotional weight women carry long after the kids grow up. It’s chaotic, heartfelt, hilarious - and very on brand.

In this wildly off-the-rails episode, the girls recap holiday survival mode, losing track of time entirely, surprise favorite Christmas gifts, and the universal truth that when you’re done hosting; you’re done. They talk New Year’s goals, working through midnight for Fermaglo, falling down in underwear on Zoom, and clients who remind us that sometimes… you’ve earned the right to not care anymore. Toss in competitive board games, open-house parties, and a legendary conversation about nicknames we probably shouldn’t be saying into microphones, and you’ve got one of the most Hair It Ferst episodes yet.

This week, the girls open up for one of the most honest and emotional episodes yet — a real look into what life is like behind the chair. From the deep bonds they build with their clients to the stories they carry home at night, Tessa, Michelle, and Monica share what they wish every client truly understood.

They talk about the way stylists grieve with you, celebrate with you, and become woven into the biggest (and hardest) chapters of your life. They open up about doing hair for clients nearing the end of life, navigating surgeries and health struggles with the support of their salon families, and the clients who stay loyal through every season.

Of course, it’s still the Hair at First crew — so there’s plenty of humor too: clients opening their eyes at the shampoo bowl, people “helping” by lifting their head, the zoomies in the chair, and the universal stylist agreement that if you don’t like your husband, they don’t either.

It’s heartfelt, heavy, and hilarious — a love letter to the clients who become family, and a glimpse into why hairstylists are so much more than “people who play with hair.

Things get *wild* in the salon this week as Monica, Tessa, and Michelle dive into real-life “client chaos” scenarios — from half-finished box dye disasters to influencers asking for free hair. The trio doesn’t hold back as they share how they’d handle everything from last-minute cancellations and surprise “I can’t pay” moments to toddlers going full Edward Scissorhands with salon shears. Between laughter, blunt honesty, and a few too-relatable stories (including prom moms and unpaid tabs), the stylists keep it real about boundaries, respect, and the everyday madness behind the chair. This one’s equal parts therapy session and comedy hour — stylists and clients alike won’t want to miss it.

This episode has everything: salon trauma, rogue blow dryers, aging knees, sleeping clients, and a heated debate over developer volumes that might need a trigger warning. Tessa, Michelle, and Monica get brutally honest about what the job really does to your body, why you don’t have to tolerate bad behavior anymore, and how Firmaglo is rescuing hair that’s one appointment away from becoming a hay bale. Equal parts educational, emotional, and absolutely feral.

Toni Vanschoyck and daughter Kat jump in for a no-holds-barred conversation that proves Fermaglo products may be clean — but the girls' mouths definitely aren’t. The group tackles salon boundaries, blow dryer theft, why some clients should be fired on the spot, and how swearing might actually reduce stress. Along the way, they break down real hair transformations, massive regrowth, ditching 50+ product lines, and the power of clean routines. Toss in cheating scandals, leadership rants, and candle wax metaphors, and you’ve got a classic Hair It Ferst episode.

From a child requesting $2,800 cash to husbands buying surprise gifts nobody asked for, this episode captures the true spirit of mom-life at Christmas: exhaustion, laughter, and a whole lot of wrapping paper. The girls compare traditions, confess snooping stories, debate whether gifts must be equal, and rally together against the universal struggle of partners who think a vacuum is a gift. A perfect December listen for anyone trying to survive the season.

The ladies dive straight into holiday chaos, surprise ADHD diagnoses, anxiety-fueled overthinking, and the mental load women still carry every day. From stepping into a nurse huddle thinking it was a prayer circle (spoiler: it wasn’t) to debating whether women should have access to the nuclear button, this episode is equal parts hilarious and painfully real. Grab your coffee — or your ditch flowers — and settle in for a conversation every woman will feel in her soul.
