The roadmap for what to do the moment you leave Atlanta. Skip these steps and your new skill gets rusty fast. Follow them and you'll have paid back your tuition before the month is out.
Post your certification photo. DM your closest clients about the new service. Add K-Tips to your booking menu. Tell your network — Instagram story, Facebook post, text 5 people directly.
Do at least one practice install on a friend or model — free or discounted. Photograph everything. The muscle memory from class fades within 14 days if you don't reuse it.
Book your first paying K-Tip client. Charge your real price from day one — even if it feels uncomfortable. Document the appointment, ask for a testimonial, post the result.
By day 30 you should have 3+ paying clients booked or completed. Source your first bulk hair order. Map out your next 60 days of content. Block consult slots in your weekly calendar.
Every Aavya student gets lifetime access to our private student community — a Facebook group where graduates share installs, ask questions, and refer overflow clients to each other. Link is in your welcome email.
