"Services that used to be 5 hours minimum... we've been knocking out these looks in 2.5 to 3.5 hours!"
Leanna M., @hairart_by_leanna
Beauty school taught you to pass the test.
Nobody taught you the rest.
You watch a highlight video on YouTube. It looks easy. Then your client sits down, your foils slip, your blend is chunky, and you're 45 minutes behind.
Or the color comes out great, but you charged $120 for 3 hours of work. Again.
You have the talent. You just need a clear plan. Random videos give you pieces. They don't show you why a placement works, what to charge for it, or how to get that client back in 8 weeks.
- You second-guess your formulas and placement
- Your services take way longer than they should
- You know you're undercharging, but raising prices feels scary
- Your books have gaps, and social media isn't filling them
- You're learning from 20 different people who all say something different

Monthly Dean's List Live with Mirella
Every month I go live with members to teach, answer questions and break down the business side of hair, like how to actually do the math to a $100K year. Can't make it? Every replay lives in the Campus.
"The monthly live classes are one of my favorite parts. My placements feel more intentional, my timing is faster, and I feel way more confident behind the chair."

Built for your first 5 years behind the chair.
This is for you if:
- You're in cosmetology school and want to walk out ahead of your class
- You've been behind the chair 5 years or less, renting a booth or on commission
- You want faster, cleaner foil work and color you can repeat
- You're ready to raise your prices and fill your books on purpose
- You learn best by watching, then doing it on your next client
This probably isn't for you if:
- You only want advanced, master-level classes
- You’re not willing to try something new on a real client
- You want someone to do the work for you
"I signed up right at the end of cosmetology school over a year ago and I just signed up for another year now that I am working in my first salon. I feel more confident already being a baby stylist and actually get excited taking on new clients."

Hi, I'm Mirella. I've been where you are.
I started doing hair in 1999. I learned most of it the hard way: slow services, cheap prices and a lot of trial and error.
Then I built my first salon into a 7-figure business, built teams and systems, and sold it. I've taught for big brands and on my own. I'm a five-time Behind the Chair One Shot nominee and winner, and I've styled for Bravo's Vanderpump Rules.
Inside my salon, I coached and mentored every stylist on my team. I taught them everything I know about building a strong business that lasts. They became confident stylists who brought in $100K to $200K+ a year in service revenue.
The part I'm proudest of? Some of them did it right out of beauty school, in under a year, because they did the work.
Great hair is only half the job. The other half is the business and marketing side beauty school never taught you: how to price, how to rebook, how to fill your books and how to get paid what you're worth.
Hair B&B University is everything I taught my team, in one app, for less than one blowout a month.
Cheers,
Mirella
