NEW THIS WEEK
In an effort to make the information you need to run your J.Hilburn business more accessible and timely, we’re making some updates to the Weekly Update.
You will notice a change in the format of this week’s email. Going forward, the Weekly Update will provide headlines of the week’s stories and link to full, detailed information in the Newsroom. There are many benefits to this format, including:
- Easier Navigation – The new format will help you find the information that is most important to you more quickly.
- More In-Depth Information – The new format allows us to provide more information on each topic as we won’t be constrained by the character limitations of email.
- Easier Access – All weekly updates will be available in the Newsroom so that you can easily find information even if your weekly email gets lost or deleted. You can also easily review information you may have missed or refresh your memory on topics.
- Coming Soon in the App – In a coming Stylist App update, the Weekly Update Newsroom articles will be available to view in the app, making access even more convenient.
Due to many people having social and family obligations coming into the weekends, we’ve found that Fridays are not the ideal delivery day for the week’s most important email. We want this information to be top-of-mind as you begin the week. Therefore, starting next week, the Weekly Update email will be delivered on Sunday evening so that the information is fresh in your mind as you prep for the week ahead on Monday morning. If you need information earlier, you can access the Weekly Update in the Newsroom on Fridays.
We hope you find the new format and cadence helpful.
Friday, August 30th – The Home Office will be closed on Friday, August 30th for our team Disconnect Day. On that day, Stylist Care and Fit Advice will have limited phone coverage from 8:30 AM – 5:00 PM CST.
Saturday, August 31st – To help support you as you close out the month of August, Stylist Care and Fit Advice will be available with limited coverage on Saturday, August 31st from 8:30 AM – 5:00 PM CST.
You may also utilize J.E.S.S.I. in the Stylist App during these days, or email stylistcare@jhilburn.com or fitadvice@jhilburn.com.

PRODUCT & FIT
Our new knit layering vest is designed to be ordered with your Client’s Layering Knit profile. The knit vest length is automatically set by T.A.P.E. to be 5” shorter than your Client’s core measurement shirt length and is not adjustable. This proportion is calculated to ensure the perfect fit for every client, based on extensive testing across various sizes and height ranges.
