MODERN SALON’s Independent Boot Camp (October 8 and 9 in Los Angeles) was developed with independent beauty pros in mind, with curated content and an education program that puts solopreneurs at the center.
This full day of business boosting experiences includes making amazing connection with your peers, coaching from industry experts, plus a lunch to keep you fueled, cocktails to help you celebrate, and a swag bag to take home and enjoy.
