Founder

Tatyana Carr

Started at Joseph & Friends Salon and Spa in 2004 (Atlanta top 10 salon). Became part of the educational team. Noticed new stylists had same issues she had after graduating. Inspired to launch her own school.

"I was a single mother with two children during my time in school, so making sure that the hours are flexible and manageable for my students is something that was (and still is) important to me."

In less than 12 months, students can graduate and begin a career as a salon professional debt free.

Featured in the National Women's Business Council magazine for her entrepreneurial success.
