Running your salon is easier when you have the right support around you
Running your own salon means you’re not only the hairdresser, you’re also managing your pricing, numbers, marketing, clients, bookings, systems and everything else that comes with being a salon owner.
And sometimes you just need somewhere to ask the question.
That’s what the Indie is here for.
Indie brings independent hairdressers and solo salon owners together to learn, share ideas, ask questions and grow alongside people who understand the realities of running a salon.

Weekly live support and conversations with other independent salon owners
A community you can actually ask when you need ideas, feedback or another perspective
The Indie Business Academy to learn the business side of running your salon at your own pace
Practical tools, templates and resources you can use in your salon
Real conversations with real hairdressers who understand what running a solo salon actually looks like
Expert guest sessions covering areas such as accounting, business, marketing, wellbeing and more
This is a space where you are seen, heard, supported and belong.
Learn at your own pace with the online business academy
"Having Angela as my mentor and my coach has been amazing."
"The best thing about joining indie for me is that I wanted to be surrounded by like minded people, people that understood what it was like to be an independent, to be on your own, to not have support from fellow work buddies because it can be really lonely at times." - Brea | Indie Hairdresser

I’m a hairdresser and I’ve lived the journey of building a business behind the chair.
I’ve spent over 23 years in the hairdressing industry, building businesses, running salons and experiencing first-hand what it takes to turn your skills as a hairdresser into a successful business.
Over the years, I watched more and more talented hairdressers step out on their own into home salons, freelance, mobile and independent ways of working but there was a gap in our industry.
They had the talent, they had the vision, but there was no clear pathway showing them how to actually run the business behind it.
Where do I start? Am I set up properly? What should I charge? How do I grow my clientele? Who do I turn to when I need help?
That’s why I created Indie Hair Academy
Indie is here to give independent hairdressers a place where they belong, with the business education, practical resources, industry connections and ongoing support to help them set up, build, grow and expand.
I’ve walked this path myself, now I’m here to help make the pathway clearer for solo hairdressers.

I’m not a corporate business coach. I’m a hairdresser who has lived it and I know what it’s like to work long hours, juggle clients, and still feel like you’re not moving forward.
I know what it takes to move forward in business and take you to the next level.
Everything I teach comes from real experience.
My goal is to make business simple, achievable, and rewarding.
I have rebuilt myself from the ground up as a solo mum and hairdressing supported me to get to where I am right now.

Here’s what ask most
That’s completely normal.
The best place to start is the Indie Community where you will have access to all the business foundations and setup requirements.
We will guide you through the process.
Yes of course, we offer a FREE business strategy call.
Everything is recorded and put into the group so you never miss a session. You can also bing watch all the previous calls.
Not at all. Everything is designed specifically for hairdressers who are new to business, with simple, step-by-step guidance to help you get started properly.
That’s exactly why Indie Hair Academy exists. You’ll be guided through everything in a clear and manageable way, so you can take things one step at a time without feeling overwhelmed.
You can start straight away. You will get instant access to the academy and able to book in your mentor sessions with Angela - if your in the Business Academy.
As you move through the journey, you’ll have access to different levels of support. The Community provides weekly coaching and accountability, calls via zoom, while the Academy offers more structured guidance and mentorship.
You have support every Monday live and 24/7 chat support in our team chat channel.
No, you can start even if you don’t have any clients yet. The goal is to help you build your business from the ground up and guide you through those first steps.
We are different because we are not just business coaching, its way more than that. We are ensuring you are compliant, protected and most of all have a business that is setup to be profitable from the start.
"It's such a great, supportive community and if you have Angela help you set up your business, you will fly right from the start."
"When I found Angela, I was so happy to know that there was someone in the same position who could give me that guidance, who'd already walked these steps and knew what to do." - Rebecca | Four Palms Hair Co.

"Without Angela's constant support, I would not have been able to do this."
"She constantly guided me. She constantly made me feel confident within myself and always backed me whenever I had a question. And still to this day, I will message her asking for advice and she will go above and beyond to give me the best answer." - Georgia | Glossed Freelance Hairdresser
