70% of hairdressers in Australia work solo.

And almost none of us were taught how to actually run a business.

No one explained the books.
The tax
The compliance
How to market yourself or where your next client was coming from.

I went solo and felt completely alone………
so I built the thing I wished had existed.

This month, something big is happening.

SOLO HAIRDRESSERS

Then this is the room you need to be in.

Whether you’re working from home, renting a chair, freelancing, mobile, barbering or building your own independent brand, The Empowered Indie was created specifically for YOU.

For too long, independent hairdressers have been overlooked.

Not anymore.

This session is a celebration of the incredible movement happening within our industry and the thousands of hairdressers who have chosen to build a business on their own terms.

It’s a room full of people who get it.

The challenges.
The wins.

One of the biggest shifts a salon owner can make is learning how to build support around them, and that’s exactly what Cheryelle King will be sharing at The Empowered Indie.

As the founder of Holistic Salon Success, a salon owner, business mentor and industry educator, Cheryelle has helped countless salon owners grow sustainable businesses while creating more freedom and support in their day-to-day lives.

In her session, Cheryelle will be talking about:

✨ When it’s time to bring on an apprentice
✨ Creating support within your business
✨ Building a team culture people want to be part of
✨ Developing future talent in our industry
✨ How apprentices can help you grow and scale your business

For many independent hairdressers, the thought of taking on an apprentice can feel overwhelming.

But with the right systems, support and mindset, an apprentice can become one of the greatest assets to your business while helping strengthen the future of our industry.

If you’ve ever wondered whether you’re ready to take the next step from solo operator to mentor and leader, this is a session you won’t want to miss.

We’re so excited to have Cheryelle joining our incredible lineup of Empowered Indie speakers and sharing her knowledge, experience and passion for developing the next generation of hairdressers.
