A Year to Build What You’ve been Dreaming of…
Tha Entrepreneur Scholarship Program
One Artist. One Year. One Sponsored Studio
The Entrepreneur Scholarship at TBD Studios exists to open doors for beauty professionals with talent, heart, and vision — but maybe without the full financial space to take the first step. Once a year, we select one recipient to receive a private sponsored salon s, for one year giving them the opportunity to build clientele, confidence, and a sustainable business.
Why This Scholarship Exists
“Every successful business starts somewhere — often with courage, hard work, and someone willing to believe in the dream.”
We created this scholarship after witnessing too many gifted artists held back by environments that didn’t support their growth.
This program is our way of saying: you deserve a real chance. A chance to work in a professional, stress-free space. A chance to focus fully on your craft. A chance to build your dream and make it reality.
But wait… what’s the catch?
WE HAVE RULES
Our Entrepreneur Scholarship is built on trust, respect, and shared values. To ensure a positive experience for everyone, the following guidelines apply:
The scholarship provides one private salon suite, sponsored for one year and is non-transferable, with a build up rent model.
The recipient operates as an independent business owner and is responsible for their own licensing, insurance, taxes, supplies, and clients.
The suite is intended for one approved artist only and may not be shared or subleased.
A professional, respectful, and drama-free environment is expected at all times.
Suites and shared spaces should be kept clean and cared for so the environment remains welcoming for everyone.
The scholarship is designed for artists looking to actively build their business and are committed to growth.
At the conclusion of the year, the recipient may choose to transition into another suite or continue their journey elsewhere.
This opportunity is a gift of space and trust, and we ask that it be honored with professionalism, gratitude, and care.
“I want to give someone the opportunity to build the life they dream about and more importantly I want to give back what was given to me.”

Step Into Full Ownership
This program isn’t just about a free or sponsored suite — it’s about stepping into your potential. We provide the opportunity, but the growth comes from showing up, putting in the work, and embracing the journey.
By the end of the year, you’ll leave ready to run a thriving, sustainable business — fully prepared, fully confident, and fully supported.
“Talent is everywhere. Opportunity is not. We’re here to give it to you — but only if you’re ready to show up and do the work.”
TBD Signature Mantra
“She realized wanting more meant becoming the woman who could carry it.”
Because elevation requires ownership. Growth demands consistency. And success is sustained by the woman willing to rise to the responsibility of her vision.
