Case Study: VStyles achieves a 60% reduction in turnover with Paylocity

Salon Owners Cut Turnover by More than 60%

VStyles, a franchisee group of hair salons in Southern California, faced a people problem: turnover was hovering around 75% and California‑specific payroll and compliance requirements plus paper‑heavy onboarding were creating administrative strain. The owners turned to Paylocity for a modern HR and payroll platform that could provide people analytics, compliant pay stubs, and streamlined onboarding.

Paylocity deployed a suite of tools—Data Insights, Recruiting & Onboarding, Community, Learning Management System, Time & Labor, mobile app, reporting and the Modern Workforce Index—to centralize data, automate processes and improve training and communication. After two years with Paylocity, VStyles reduced turnover from 75% to below 30% (about a 60% reduction), saved 12 hours per month on compliance, cut 16 hours per month in reporting for the owner, gave employees an hour per week back via the mobile app, achieved an 84% MWI utilization score and is on track to save $24,000 this year.
