THE SIX-FIGURE STYLIST: THE BEVERLY HILLS BLUEPRINT
A 90-Minute Live Masterclass with Elgin Charles, The Emperor of Hair
Sunday, November 22, 2026 · 7:00 PM ET / 4:00 PM PT · Streamed exclusively on Blacktivity
Talent gets you noticed. Business acumen keeps you rich.
Elgin Charles made history as the first Black salon owner in Beverly Hills, California. For more than four decades, he has styled royalty, Hollywood icons, and the world’s most discerning tastemakers. Before he ever opened his doors, he worked in municipal bonds and wealth management at Smith Barney. He knows balance sheets as well as he knows hair health. Now he’s taking you inside his Beverly Hills studio to show you how it’s done.
This is not a styling class. There are no shears, no flat irons, and no setting lotions. It’s a working session on the money, the mindset, and the ownership that turn a skilled stylist into a business owner.
Who this is for:
Anyone with a business mindset and an entrepreneurial spirit who is ready to take their success to the next level. If you’re serious about growth, this evening was built for you.
What you’ll learn:
I. The Mathematics of Six Figures. Trade hourly pricing for value-based packages. Learn the numbers behind a $100K year and how to plug the leaks: cancellations, empty chair time, and backbar waste.
II. Client Acquisition & Retention. Use the Beverly Hills consultation to attract affluent, loyal clients, and learn the booking habit that fills your calendar weeks ahead.
III. Prescriptive Retail & Monetization. Break through the hands-only income ceiling with Elgin’s 40% Rule, prescriptive recommendations, and proprietary products.
IV. Enterprise Mindset & Asset Protection. Cover LLC and S-Corp structure, commercial banking, lease negotiation, and the shift from chair to brand proprietor.
V. The Master Hot-Seat Q&A. Spend 30 live minutes with Elgin diagnosing real business bottlenecks, in real time.

Priority VIP casting consideration for Elgin Charles’s Hair Camp
