Inside a 4 generation family salon business with Chris Huffstutter

Wed Jan 28 2026

Listen

It all began with Viola, who's salon did so well that she made more money than the doctor who delivered her son -- in the Great Depression, no less. That son went to hair school and joined the family business too. Fast forward to today, and a small family business has become large and legendary: Viola's great grandchildren own and operate a four-location salon company and a Summit Salon Academy.  Our guest this episode is Chris Huffstutter, owner of Summit Salon Academy Portland, shareholder at Anastasia Salon, and a Summit School Coach. Listen for a fun and frank conversation on the joys and pitfalls of working with your siblings, and learn how the Huffstutter brothers draw on their dad's wisdom and the latest tech to bring more happiness to their family and employees.  Reach out to Chris about cosmetology school coaching here. Follow Summit Salon Academy Portland on Instagram @summitsalonacademy_pdx. You can catch Chris's brother Luke on a previous SUMM IT UP episode,  Stop losing money on color ft. Vish's Tim Howard with Les McFadden and Luke Huffstutter. Follow Summit Salon Business Center on Instagram @SummitSalon, and on TikTok at SummitSalon.  SUMM IT UP  is now on YouTube!
