How to turn these into posts that convert

Post 3-5 times a week with a mix of before/after slideshows, styling tutorials, and behind-the-scenes fun. Use trending sounds and keep captions casual and relatable. Avoid being too salesy; focus on showcasing your work and personality. Engage with comments and Duets to grow local reach.

Timing: Post Tuesday-Thursday afternoons for best engagement; weekends are oversaturated.
