The Information that Sway gave was so informative. The moment that I received my prep-kit I immediately start reviewing her information. Everything was in depth from start to finish to let you know how to start your Salon Suite. You can tell that Sway is very passionate about her business and her craft in this industry. Her vibe, and her passion shows up and show out. There is nothing that she did not touch base on. Every question I had she answered and not once did I have to ask any questions. The information was presented gave you step by step access to a greater entrepreneur experience in this industry. I have taken many classes and she kept it interesting and making you want to get out there and start today. Sway took her experience and her knowledge and time to help build others and be successful and that made me feel like I can be successful in this industry as long as I'm consistent and follow suite. Thank You Sway!

Sway's session was quite comprehensive. A great deal of information was presented in a relatively short period of time. Key points were introduced and explored. The session provided prospective salon suite owners with a framework of this business model, and it was quite engaging. Aspects of the business that you might not consider were explained.

After dealing with homelessness, I have wanted to start my own business and rise above everything. I BELIEVE that this is that! WORTH THE TIME AND MONEY!! This was truly amazing! The Mindset part by itself is worth a program!! But all the info! I see why she's the #1 mentor! I can't wait to change my life and get tapped in! I am so inspired just by the 1 hour! I am so ready to get to work after that call! I'm so excited to one day be in her program so I can take over Colorado! I would be the first black lesbian salon suite owner here, and I am ready to GET TO WORK! LETS GO!! Tap into the winning team! Thank you so much, Sway

This was an informative course and I learned a lot in just one hour. The information that was shared was very helpful and Sway is a very good presenter she went straight to the area needed to explain what is need to start this type of business. The information she shared was informative and it could be used right away in through it was limited I still left know more on the subject then I knew before attending her mini course. Thank you again Sway, and I m looking forward to taking your full course soon!

I had the opportunity to attend the free virtual class with just the basic essentials and while it may have been considered short it was so clear cut and informative. The information and slides provided in the zoom alone answered many of my questions about startup along with a lot of my apprehensions about this venture being "bulletproof". Sway not only shared the blood sweat and tears she put into establishing and evolving but she also showed how much she puts into her mentees. This isn’t a $20 ebook or a set you up and throw you to wolves venture. Sway showed that she actually visits, checks on, and pours into everybody under her umbrella and I respect that so much. It goes a long way towards showing it’s simply not about the money. Her format in the virtual learning was both fast paced but also extremely loaded with the most important facets. I learned so much and am forever grateful for her willingness to reach out both in and outside the beauty community. I will certainly take every piece she shared with me into my own suite venture as well as other businesses I decide to establish in the future. THANKS A BILLION SWAY!

It was interesting and she seems to espouse a good business model. I actually learned a few things in this introductory class..
It is motivating and supportive based on what is being said. I gave 3 stars because it was a fee for everything. Im not sure what I expected but I am not totally comfortable signing up for anything without any thought process. Im not rich and $500. would be a sacrifice to me and my family.

The salon suite live event was amazing!! Sway gave us more information than I expected & it was very practical. There was so much positive energy in the room. During the session I felt so encouraged & enthusiastic to start this life changing journey. I am looking forward to attending more classes/ events & one day being mentored by Sway & the team.

I attended the free webinar and genuinely found value in it. As someone who already has business and salon ownership experience, I still felt like there were strategies and insights that could help accelerate my path toward salon suite ownership and help me avoid unnecessary trial and error.
The presenter clearly knows her stuff and understands the salon suite industry well. I appreciated the practical information and perspective shared throughout the training.
My only personal critique is that I would have preferred less cursing during the presentation, but overall I still found the webinar informative, motivating, and helpful.

Hello! I'm Amber from Cali here! I joined a free zoom class today (Thursday 5/14/26) with Sway and she was very informative. I know that free classes can be a waste of time but not this one. I did get a couple of pointers on how to start a salon suite but I truly hope I can work with her one on one and open up a salon of my own.

Sway presented an amazing informative zoom session showing the blue print on how to get started with investing in Salon Suite Business. The information Sway shared was extremely valuable. I learned so much this evening about this investment opportunity. Sway’s energy shifted my mindset in a different direction on how I want to pursue generating passive income.

Thank you for hosting such a great Zoom session. The call was informative, engaging, and provided valuable insight into the salon suite business model. I especially appreciated the transparency, professionalism, and the opportunity to learn more about the support and growth opportunities available. It was inspiring to hear from others and gain a better understanding of what success can look like within the industry. It was also great to feel your passion around giving back to others to ensure their success as that takes true servant leadership.

This class was so informative and inspiring for me. I’m just a 32 year old woman in Little Rock, Arkansas trying to get back on my feet and this class was just the motivation I needed! I’ve been drowning in depression lately because I severed the tendons in my fingers so I have a rod in my middle finger and have taken two years off from doing hair. I’ve had my license for 12 years now and I absolutely love the hair industry. I went to hair school straight through when I was 19-20 years old while working part time and staying with a friend after getting put out of home im so determined to make myself great in this industry and prove to myself, my family, and everyone else looking up to me that anything is possible when you put your mind to it.

Sway was clear about everything she spoke about. She made me feel comfortable moving forward. She put a big smile on my face after a rough work week.
