This past October, MODERN SALON held its fifth installment of Independent Boot Camp along with its second annual Indie Pro Awards and MODERN SALON 100 Honoree ceremony, and we had an absolute blast.

Independent Boot Camp is a business education event geared toward independent beauty and barbering professionals, and is meant to educate through inspiring speakers and informative topics. The evening before our fall edition, we celebrate our newest cohort of MODERN SALON 100 honorees and name winners in each category of the Indie Pro Awards competition. The comraderie and positive energy of our attendees made this event the best one yet.

We'd like to thank our attendees for bringing the good vibes, and our presenters and speakers for continuing to inspire and uplift the beauty community by sharing their knowledge.

And last but not least, thank you to our wonderful sponsors, without whom this event would not be possible:

Diamond: Sola Salons

Platinum: DaySmart Salon 

Gold: AIIR; Gild Insurance; PRAVANA; SalonCentric; Salon Services Pro; Satin Hair Color; The Seven Figure Boss; SHE Hair Extensions
