NEW THIS WEEK
Finish September strong! Your Stylist Success Team will be available with extended hours on Tuesday, September 30th until 8:00 PM CST. There’s still time to earn your PSVB bonus, so let’s make the most of it and close out the month with momentum!
A new version of the Stylist App is live with updates to make your experience smoother.
What’s New:
1. Improved Main Navigation
The main menu has been reorganized for quicker access to key features and to set the stage for new functionality coming in October.
2. Enhanced Product Detail Screens with Additional Imagery
Some product pages now include more images, like alternate angles, styling ideas, and lifestyle shots (similar to jhilburn.com). This makes it easier to show clients different ways to wear the product. Note: not all products will have extra images.
3. Support for iPadOS 26
The Stylist App is now fully compatible with iPadOS 26, delivering improved performance, security, and a seamless experience with Apple’s latest features.
4. Minor Improvements & Bug Fixes
We’ve made performance upgrades and resolved reported issues to give you a smoother, more reliable experience.
Be sure to update to the latest version of the J.Hilburn Stylist App in the Apple App Store.
You can also check out tutorial content in the Stylist Central Facebook Group. Thanks for making every style unique with the Stylist App. We’re excited for you to explore these enhancements!

DON’T MISS!
We’re pleased to share an important update following our earlier communication. After careful review, we have landed on a price increase of just over 10%, a much better outcome than the initial estimate of 20%. This is great news, and it reflects our commitment to balancing the health of the business with your ability to drive sales and deliver value to clients.
As a reminder, these price increases took effect starting Monday, September 22nd, at 8:00 AM CST.
To help you prepare for conversations about pricing changes with Clients, we’ve prepared some scripting/talking points to shift the conversation from cost to value.
