As an independent artist there is so much more that goes into it than the feeling of freedom and a curated instagram. It takes hard work, dedication and it can feel super lonely sometimes.
That's why Lynzie started The independent Beaty Pros to help connect other independent stylists and help other stylists grow.

We're talking about what the difference between going independent vs. working in a commission salon, and how to create meaningful connections that can help grow your business.
