Beyond the Chair: Get Booked For High-End Gigs
A 4-day live virtual challenge for working hairstylists, makeup artists, and beauty creatives who are already good at what they do and are ready for their next step into higher-end gigs.
If you're tired of watching the same artists get opportunities you know you could handle, this challenge was built for you.
Over four live days, Monaè uses real career moments and hard-won business knowledge to show you what's actually been getting in the way of higher-end work, and what beauty pros need to move into brands, editorial, red carpet, weddings, events, and other premium opportunities.
Free registration includes live access only. Upgrade to VIP for $47 to get replays, VIP After Hours, and an implementation workbook tied to each session.

You're Not Stuck Because
You're Not Good Enough
You've put in the years. You've got real skills and clients who love you. But the brand deals, editorial shoots, and high-end bookings keep going to other artists, and you can't figure out why.
It's not your talent. It's not your city. It's not your follower count.
Most beauty pros never get told the real reason, because beauty school doesn't teach you how the booking pipeline for high-end and celeb-adjacent work actually operates.
Nobody shows you what publicists, editors, and brand managers are looking for when they hire. Nobody shows you that pipeline.
That's what four live sessions are actually built around.
About
Monaè Everett
Monaè Everett is a celebrity hairstylist, author, and award-winning educator who built her career from scratch. She moved to New York City alone with no connections, no roadmap, and no one in her corner. She navigated gatekeeping, bias, and years of grinding without a mentor.
And she figured it out anyway.
Over 20 years, she has built a career that has taken her across red carpets, award shows, editorial shoots, TV sets, and major brand campaigns.
Her work has appeared in ESSENCE, InStyle, Harper's Bazaar, Yahoo!, and across national platforms.
She has been a spokesperson and educator for national beauty brands and taught thousands of stylists at IBS, ABS, and Premiere. She has worked at New York Fashion Week for over 20 seasons.
Today, she teaches other beauty pros the exact roadmap she had to build herself.

Our Happy Clients
Who This Is For
You're a working beauty pro who knows there's more available to you.
You're tired of watching the same artists get opportunities you could execute.
You're ready for a clear next step into higher-end gigs, stronger positioning, and more control over your income.
This challenge is especially built for beauty professionals with 10 or more years in the industry who are already skilled, already trusted by their clients, and ready to finally connect their talent to better-paying opportunities.
Who This
Is Not For
If you're looking to passively consume content and feel inspired for a weekend, this isn't the right room.
This challenge is for working pros who are ready to show up, apply what they learn, and move.
It's not for general beauty fans, people who want results without doing the real work, or anyone committed to the belief that better opportunities only happen for other people.
What You Will Walk Away With
A clear understanding of why your skills alone haven't created the bookings you want, and what's actually been missing
A stronger sense of which high-end and celeb-adjacent opportunities are already closer to you than you think
A practical way to assess whether your current proof and portfolio presentation is helping or costing you opportunities
A specific next-step plan so you leave the challenge with a direction you can act on, not just more inspiration
The 4-Day Challenge Experience
Day 1 – The Gap: Find out why skill alone doesn't get you booked, and leave with a clearer positioning statement you can start using right away.
Day 2 – The Landscape: Understand the world of high-end and celeb-adjacent gigs so you can see exactly where you're already closer than you've been told.
Day 3 – Proof: Audit your current images and portfolio presentation to find out what's helping you and what's quietly costing you opportunities before you ever get a chance to pitch.
Day 4 – The Path: Map a concrete next-step plan so you walk out of the challenge with a real direction, not just a good feeling.
Here's What
Previous Clients Have To Say…
Every Session Ends With Something You Can Actually Use
Most free trainings in this space teach technique or mindset. They leave you feeling fired up on a Friday and back to normal by Monday because inspiration without a roadmap has nowhere to go.
This challenge is built differently. Every session in this challenge is structured around a real, specific outcome you can work on the same day.
Day 1 ends with a clearer positioning statement.
Day 2 gives you a map of where high-end and celeb-adjacent opportunities actually are, and which ones are already closer to you than you think.
Day 3 includes a live proof audit you can apply to your own work before the session ends.
Day 4 closes with a next-step plan you can act on that week.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this only for hairstylists?
No. This challenge is for hairstylists, makeup artists, and beauty creatives who want more premium opportunities.
Is this only about celebrity clients?
No. Celebrity is the hook. The bigger vision includes weddings, editorial, events, brands, press, and other premium opportunities.
Do free attendees get replays?
No. Replays are part of the VIP upgrade only.
Does VIP count toward CELEB Gigs Academy 2.0?
No. VIP is its own upgrade and is not applied as a credit toward CGA.
I've taken courses before, and nothing changed. How is this different?
Most courses teach technique or inspiration. They don't teach the real business, positioning, and relationship strategy behind how artists actually get hired for high-end work. What Monaè teaches comes from 20 years of working in the industry herself. The challenge gives you specific tools and a real next-step plan, not just ideas to think about.
I don't live in New York or Los Angeles. Can this actually work for me?
Yes. Many of Monaè's students book celebrity and brand work while living outside major cities. Location is not the gatekeeper people think it is. Strategy and positioning are. That's one of the core things this challenge covers directly.
I'm tired and burned out. Is this going to be worth my time?
Honestly, that exhaustion usually isn't about your ability at all. It's what happens when you've been putting in real work without a clear path to follow. Once you have a direction that actually makes sense for where you're trying to go, the work starts to feel different.
You Already Know There Is More for You
You didn't sign up just to collect another free link and move on. You're here because something in you already knows the gigs you've been watching go to other artists should be yours.
Save your seat, show up live, and decide whether you want the free experience or the VIP seat.
