Increasing the health and the wealth for Beauty and Barber professionals is the heart of what we do! And with your help 20,000+ courses have been donated through our 'Take a Course Give a Course Program'!
UPDATE:
While we continue to support students, we’ve temporarily shifted most of our efforts to prioritize hardships during Covid-19. As of March 1st 2020, the majority of our current donated courses and 1-on-1 coaching have been DONATED to licensed Beauty and Barber professionals.
How it works...
"Our model eliminates barriers to access capital."
With 5 million Beauty and Barber professionals in the world and the majority of them don't operate like a business 'behind the chair' because the Business Skills chapter in Milady’s textbook is the last and the shortest chapter.
To help address this problem, we work with Beauty and Barber schools worldwide to ensure that for every HAIR HUSTLE ACADEMY course purchased, a course is donated to a student.
We use 2 models:
1) Empowering Beauty and Barber professionals with training opportunities to operate 'behind the chair' to secure financial dependence.
2) Directly giving courses to students where this information can increase business skills and create financial literacy early in their career.

Our Partners

The BIG Sanitation Problem!
As part of our study with Cornel University in 2019 on the beauty industry, customer service and sanitation are currently the number one issues in salons.
Our Sanitation Accreditation Course addresses the lack of state and local enforcement of conditions in the workplace with a public database of salon and stylists who prioritize sanitation.
