Why We’re Here

We want to make it easier for beauty professionals to make a living doing what they love.

Dana Fountain & Samantha Ghazarian have both been in the salon and beauty industry for a collective 20 years. Dana, the serial entrepreneur behind Pin Me Up and Row 24, to name a few, knows what it takes to grow a business from scratch. An accomplished esthetician, Sam knows how important it is to create a client-centered, profession-forward experience.

They knew the best way to do both was to create a collaborative workspace that gave their talented freelance peers everything they needed to build a thriving beauty business, starting with a commission-free rate structure and a perfectly equipped hygienic workspace.
