Hair Love Scholarship is a scholarship for ambitious hairstylists who want to create a fulfilling career.

They love their craft, the industry and want to build a wealthy business that can last a lifetime. 

We know that starting a business and growing a clientele can be challenging and that there are so many hairstylists, salon owners, and beauty educators that would flourish with the right support. Sometimes we just need a leg up! 

As hairstylists, we have so much positive impact on so many in our local communities.

Clients share so much of their intimate life with us. The best moments and the worst. 

Stylists are typically creatives at heart and love human connection but we have found that business, wellness, and advanced craft education are not accessible to so many stylists. We want to create opportunities for all types of hair businesses and hair entrepreneurs.  

The hair industry is one of abundance, and we want everyone to have a piece of the pie. 

Whether you are just getting started, in beauty school, opening a salon, or have been in the industry for years and feel that quality education would change your life. THIS IS FOR YOU.

Apply for your business today or nominate a hairstylist you know.
