10 Reasons Why You Can’t Miss The Sola Sessions Reimagined  image

Listen Now 🎧

We started The Sola Sessions in 2016 in an effort to bring our #SolaFam together to feel connected, educated and inspired. Since then, we’ve hosted 12 Sola Sessions, featuring the industry’s top business, marketing and artistic educators to help independent salon owners like you live the salon life of their dreams. 

In May 2021, we hosted our first virtual Sola Sessions, and it was such a success we just couldn’t wait to do it all over again. That’s right...The Sola Sessions Reimagined is coming to you on Monday, September 27th!  

We’ve got a lot of amazing stuff up our sleeves for this event. Here are 10 (of the many) reasons you’ll want to join us and experience the Sessions magic for yourself! 

1. Learn from the Industry’s Best Educators 

In typical Sola Sessions fashion, we’re bringing the heat with a lineup that simply cannot be beat! Our Keynote Speaker is the one and only Tabatha Coffey – hairdresser, coach, author, and industry legend – who will educate on “Taking Control of Your Career: One Step at a Time.” In addition to Tabatha, our lineup includes world-class educators such as Sonya Dove, Ruth Roche, Nina Tulio, Justin Isaac, Nina Kovner, John Mosley, Maggie Hancock, and many more! Whatever your interest or specialty, we’ll deliver best-in-class education to uplevel your career right the comfort of your home. 

2. Choose Your Own Journey 

With three stages and 18 educators, our content covers a range of disciplines. Topics include hair color, cutting and styling, texture, blonding, skincare, budgeting and finance, charging what you’re worth, boundaries and burnout, social media marketing, mental health, barbering, lashes, and more! 

3. Vendor Expo 

In our virtual expo hall, you can get the inside scoop from our event sponsors. Interact with your favorite brands face-to-face by turning your camera on or send in a comment or question via the live chat. The expo hall will be open all day, with additional strategic breaks throughout the agenda. 

4. After Party Sale 

Enjoy exclusive specials from our event sponsors and get ready to shop ‘til you (virtually) drop! After the Sola Sessions ends, we’ll send an email inviting all attendees to shop and save on BeautyHive 🙌 

5. Two MCs That You Know and Love: Jennie Wolff and Steven Wren 

You know Steven (@mrwrencuts) as our 2020 Faces of Sola that wears many hats: Standout barber, Sexy Hair educator, owner of Steven Brandon Hair Studio, and MC of our last Sola Sessions. We are thrilled to have Sola’s fearless Chief Marketing Officer, Jennie Wolff (@jenniethewolff), join Steven to help guide you on your virtual Sola Sessions journey. Most of you know Jennie as host of the Sola Stories Podcast, presenter at the live Sessions events, and creator of tons of marketing videos inside Sola Pro. You are in for a sweet treat with these two rock stars setting the virtual stage for an amazing show! 

6. Unbeatable Price 

For only $29 (Sola professionals) and $59 (general admission), you gain access to more than 10 hours of education that you can access whenever you want for the remainder of the year. That’s industry-leading education for the price of a tank of gas. And since the Sessions is virtual, there’s no travel, no hotel, no expensive meals at restaurants. It’s time to invest in yourself – now is the chance to do it at an affordable price!  

7. On-Demand Access 

We understand that watching content all day long isn’t feasible for everyone. That’s why we’re offering ticket holders on-demand access until the end of the year. Whether you can’t join us live or you want to rewatch your favorite segments over and over, you're the boss - watch it all on your own time. 

8. Prizes and Giveaways 

What’s a Sola Sessions without giveaways?! We won’t spoil too many surprises, but let’s just say a free week of rent may be in the mix 😉  

9. Live Q&A 

One of the best perks of a virtual event is the Live Q&A feature. Type a question in the chat box when watching a class, and the educator will type back their answer live. It’s connection reimagined, and we are about it! 

10. Faces of Sola Panel Discussions 

Join our rock star Faces of Sola to learn how they harnessed their skills to be at the top of the salon ownership game. Learn how to pay your rent in retail, social media marketing, and how to navigate boundaries and burnout.
