What does your Instagram bio say about you? If a potential client landed on your profile right now, would they know what you offer, where you're located, or how to book with you?

In this episode, we're breaking down exactly how to write a bio that reflects your brand, highlights your services, and makes it easy for people to book. Including:

✔ What to put in your name field (hint: don’t repeat your handle)

✔ How to write a clear and simple “who you help and how” statement

✔ What not to include (like hashtags or tagging brands)

✔ How to use your bio strategically when you offer more than one service

Plus, I share examples for lash techs, skincare specialists, nail techs, and holistic beauty pros—so you’ll walk away with something you can copy and tweak for your own biz.

And if you update your bio after this episode, tag us @beautycultcanada—we’d love to see it and share it.
