From license to your own salon — the complete business track for future owners.
Licensed pros and senior students planning their own business.
You do not need a diploma in business — you need honest numbers and a sequence. The Academy is taught by people who run salons on the Gulf Coast, and every module ends with a piece of your own launch plan, not a test.
Small groups, weekly starts. Leave your contacts — we will send the next date and syllabus.
The 60 hours run over four weeks: two evening sessions plus one full Saturday each week. Saturdays are workshop days — you build your own numbers and documents with the instructors, not just listen.
Employment has a ceiling; ownership removes it. Booth renters and suite owners work for their own revenue instead of a commission split, and salon owners scale beyond their own chair entirely.
The Academy does not promise a business — it gives you the model, the numbers and the paperwork sequence that make the decision rational instead of scary. You leave with a plan a bank or a landlord can read.
The Academy is business training — your professional license path depends on the services you plan to offer. We help you sequence both.
A written launch plan: model, numbers, licensing checklist and a 90-day marketing calendar.
No — about a third of each group are senior students planning 6–12 months ahead. Starting the paperwork sequence early is an advantage, not a problem.
It depends on your book and savings — that is exactly the math of module one and three. You will answer it with your own numbers by week two.
We teach the location evaluation framework and review your shortlist during the capstone. We do not act as brokers, which keeps our advice honest.
